Some people are just mongrels!

Aggh, people! Some people should just be shot for inconsideration and just plain inappropriate behavior, unthinking scoundrels.

Why can’t they just think! Oh so you are at a beach drinking. What is the one thing that would be really inappropriate in such a place? Oh I know lets just smash a heap of bottles and leave them there, on a beach, where people are known to walk barefooted!

This morning me and Nades arrived at Corsair bay at 7am, only to find the ramp and the surrounding area covered in smashed glass. We gingerly made our way down into the water (which seemed even colder than last time). We did our swim, which was quite pleasant. But afterward we decided to clear up as much of the glass that we could. Probably took us over half a hour. Aghhhh it really makes me angry. There are heaps of dogs that visit the area and there would bound to be children later in the day, though probably not swimming yet.

Now I am just starting to get paranoid about the possibility of submerged glass that I could stand on cut the foot open. That could possible say good bye for wanaka, if I couldn’t run for several weeks. I am seriously thinking investing in some swimming booties as not a bad idea.

On other news, this is the end of my easy week. I get to start a new program next week… though still waiting for it with bated breath, come on Jo want to know what the next 6 weeks has in store for me :) Though when a easy week includes a 4 hour session, I have shake my head. Actually I think easy weeks just means the 5 weekdays, weekends are excluded. The four hour session was a 2 hr bike followed by 2hr run. Wasn’t looking forward to that run. So did short bays, which actually only takes me 1:45 but couldn’t be bothered doing a extra 15 minutes. I thought the bike had done its bit and I make up for it on the run.

The run start pretty well, the original plan was to run along the base to St Martins and run up valley track, along the summit and home. But I thought that might actually take me a smidgen too long and running on the flat was boring me, so decided to head up Major Aiken Drive. Not quite sure why I thought that was a good idea. Though I was rather happy with my bodies abilty to cope and did walk to near thr very top, where I resorted to some off tracking… It was a awesome day weatherwise, I think it was the first time this season that I was seeking out the shade as I ran. Plus I forgot sunscreen , didn’t get burnt but can feel it slightly on the face.

    Oooooh, that makes me angry. I’d dearly love to catch the sods in the act. That’s why I prefer Cass over Corsair – more homes at the waters edge to keep an eye on things, and it attracts more families – not the boguns and their skanky girlfriends.
