Day: 25 June 2006

Eleanor takes another step in the Church events, with her Confrmation on Saturday. This is out of step in NZ, as it is stage 2 of 3 here, rather than 3 of 3 as in England.
As such she was by far the oldest of the group, but as such the most helpful to the leader of the programme.

To celebrate her and Sara’s fine run, the family went off to Eastbourne for lunch and a walk on the beach. The best weather in over a week made it feasible.

Sara gets up early and shows her paces with the crowds in Wellington. The weather has not been great of late, but clod waether does not put off the hardy athlete, who also fights back from pugnaciuos virus.
She did a 10k run in 56 minutes, helped by her new running gear, music pounding in her ears and taking on the family mantle as the old man still has the gammy knee.
Well done Sara, who is now in the groove and looking forward to the next event.
