“Mum, why don’t you have a job?”
Yesterday I was in the car with my kids and out of the blue Luca said to me … “Mum, why don’t you have a job?”. In an instant the hair stood up on the back of my neck. All bristle like. So I said, “I do have a job, I …
13.1 Miles
Today I ran the Blackmores Sydney Running Festival half marathon. Not only was it a perfectly blue and warm spring day but it was a beautiful course starting at the Harbour Bridge and finishing at the Opera House 21km later … but best of all I ran my personal best …
