   What do we do now? It’s always the same the day after the final of the Australian tennis open: bereft of tennis, we’re left uncertain what to do with ourselves after weeks of feasting on Hopman Cup, Brisbane International, Sydney International and Australian Open tennis tournaments.

   Ah well, nothing for it now but to lace up the running shoes and knock over a few more kilometres. This wasn’t quite so simple with the hot weather having returned; the humidity in full flight causing modest temperatures of 29°C to feel much hotter. The worst part about the humidity is never being dry. You have a shower, ‘dry’ yourself with a damp towel that won’t ever dry and find yourself sweating profusely anyhow. So you dress yourself while still wet in damp clothes and wonder what life might be like in the Yukon or somewhere.

   Whingeing aside, the run was done well enough and I still feel pretty good about myself.  

   Even if I can’t quite get dry.
