Pan Pacs

We are now in Gold Coast to take part in the Pan Pacific Masters Games which is held every two years. This year 11,000 competitors from twenty six countries have signed up and compete in the thirty four kinds of sports. It is a big event. I ran the 3km race at track and got a poor record. I have no clue for this result. Next day we joined the 4km cross country race and both got a bronze medal. But I thought it was just by luck because my time was very slow. I am afraid that my time is getting slower.

Dinner party

We invited two couples for a dinner party at our place the other day.
Jon made tuna roll for starter.
I made table setting beautifully like a restaurant
and cooked many dishes such as salmon for entree,
apple salad for fresheners,
pork and chicken for main,
beans salad and mushroom stir fry for side dish,
coconuts cake and spicy dates cake for dessert.
I was busy in the kitchen but really enjoyed cooking.
In despite of one couple's arrival was very late,
I think everybody enjoyed chatting, eating and laughing at this party.

Season was over!

Last Saturday it was our last race in cross country season.
From April there were thirteen races.
Jon and I joined all of them and were given a title Spartan.
In that evening the dinner party was held,
where we were given the medals of Spartan.
And also they announced most improved runners
and I've got seventh.
Considering the records of this season,
in some races I ran slower than last year
but some faster.
Over all this season was not too bad for me.
Thanks for my coach, Jonathan.

Birthday girl

It was my big birthday yesterday.

From the morning till the midnight Jon gave me lots of surprising.

At the breakfast table I was given car number plate, TAMAMI and sport watch, Gamin.

We replaced it and drove to Deborah’s house to have a cake late afternoon.

For dinner he booked Maze by Gordon Rumsy in the Crown.

We enjoyed a great meal, service and atmosphere.

I would like to be healthy and run with Jon for another fifty years.

Winning!

I’ve got the victory at 6km race in Coburg on 17 Jan.

Jon ran with me as a pace runner and pushed me to the first.

I received the trophy which is very interesting figure.
