Lake Alexandra run/walk ~~~

Part of the get-fit program is some easy running.  At 8:00 this morning I had to have the car in for a new muffler to be fitted so, after dropping the car in and since it was tipped to be over 30 degrees today, I set off from the garage, down Queen Street, to Lake Alexandra which is on the opposite side of Mittagong from where I live on the Frensham College side. 

At 8:00am it was already hot but trees around the Lake gave some shade.  The many ducks and other water fowl, however, were just starting to wake up from their beds under a tree in the sun.  A few still had beaks buried in back feathers refusing to be disturbed by the soft gurgling of the early risers!  Circling the Lake a few times, taking photos of the ducks, I headed away for some steep, hilly streets and a short jog along a rough bush rack at the base of Mt Alexandra and finally back to the lake and then garage only to hear they'd been sent the wrong piece!  Things happen!!  Anyhow, it might be a good place to do another easy session.....when they get the right piece in.

To keep heart rate down  -forgot to wear strap -  I can 'Gallowalk' parts of these easy sessions and just as well it is allowed because the area is all hills!

Lake Alexandra, Mittagong.
