City2Surf Taper ; Happy Birthday Minnie

Only 12km this morning to the arboretum and back (legs are feeling better, 120km in legs last 7 days, tomorrow it will be 100km last 7 days). Helen and Emma ran there as well (I didn't see them) and Minnie ran from home. We all met up at the Arboretum a little later for coffee and chats. A nice way to spend the morning. All of us had the day off work.

It's happy birthday to Minnie today. We have a tradition of cheesecake, champagne and coffee as a way of celebration which began in Australia near Berrima on 12 August 2007 and Epernay France on 12 August 2008. Some images of that day and cheesecakes / champagne past below. Sometimes in coincides with City2Surf as it did in 2012.
