Note
Direct flight to Sydney cancelled very late by Virgin. They offered to put me up in Canberra (!) overnight with an early morning trip into Sydney the next day. While the Canberra hotel was really comfortable, the Cabcharge voucher did not cover the full distance and there was nowhere to spend the $30 meal allowance upon arrival after 10.30pm.
Sydney > Canberra: Virgin 1228, Boeing 737-800, 1020km, 38000ft, 1h23m.

Site of my first national track championships (800m in 1982) and where I met my future wife (1984). We are using 3 umpire teams this week so there are plenty of breaks when only 1 or 2 teams are required.

Bethany's 400m heats were cancelled today so she goes straight into the semis tomorrow afternoon. But she will have to back up after the 800m heats earlier in the day.
Headlines: Push to avert phone jamming in schools / Running on empty - Lost and Running snubbed: Ridiculous he's $30 (racing)
