Vee's Journal

[teamfatboy]

I'd have thought you Aucklanders were used to running in the rain....does it ever actually stop? Every time I pass thru the airport it's hosing down, makes for fun getting between terminals.

Guess it solves that hydration problem tho Vee, huh ? :grin: (or did you pack a water bottle just in case) - and 15k makes my 10k pale :clap:

[runveerun]

Noooo it's always sunny here!! :shifty:

I took my camelbak this time so was able to take my camera too, I haven't used the thing since last year I forgot what a god send the things are! Heavy, but a god send!!!

[rose]

I want to take a camera with me when I go running I see VERY interesting things

I see something funny most mornings that I really wanted to photograph for you but I didn't have my phone today and I forgot to go back when I left for work. Tomorrow! :grin:

OOO my mind is boggling what it could be! I watched a movie last night 'yes men' and there is a girl in it who runs a running squad that takes photos as they run, somebody has stolen my idea already and turned it into a movie! That was fast! :shock: :pfft:

Good eating and w/o Vee.

Re movie, don't cha hate it when that happens :pfft:

Re the photo, it was just this little hom... I mean gnome. Heh. It's been suggested I call him Terry.

He 'lives' at the bottom of some stairs I jog up. I pay homage to him every time, cos he's one of the few I see at that time of the day...

I dunno, just one of those lame random things you see and take note of. Does anyone have any idea what I mean? :pfft:

Not that you're biased or anything! But of course you're right :wink:

[Gym rat]

Wellington is a great city it can get very windy at times also Wellington is easy for walking around in the CBD area.When dose get windy in Wellington my advice is if you are wearing a hat when you are out walking when it dose get windy would be to hold on to your hat very tight the wind can get very strong when it is coming off the harbour.Wellington has lots of great places for eating out.

[startinfromscratch]

you should run to Welly Vee!!!!!! :grin:

[runveerun]

ha ha I wonder how long that would take?.....
