As the name says, all the 'The Sleep Train' does is sleep and train, but not necessarily in any predetermined order, its just that 'The Train Sleep' didnt sound as good. Unknown to many is the fact that The Sleep Train's middle name is Eat, so full name is thus Sleep Eat Train, or Sleep E Train, which fits given The Sleep Train did once fall sleep on a train at Central Station only to wake hours later in Lithgow, which is a lovely place at 3am.

Hills, Trails & the Blue Mtns bush at its best
After 2 and a half weeks of felling either saw, or carrying a ham-string affliction, have started to feel good and mended.
Key sessions: all the same as last week...
Totals: 171k running, 9 runs - all on hills & trails (except 10k sprinting on a treadmill at 16% incline)
Swim: 12.3k, 4 swims - one HR set on Sat, same as last week
Ride 95mins on turbo spinning (2 rides)
Total time 19.5hrs
Mondays sleep in felt good
Other than the above it was a great week of training, most of which was in the bush running beside all the marvellous Australian natives flowering at the moment. My favourite at the moment has to be the Epacris Longifloria sp. in blooming abundance particularly along the Fire Trail out to Grose Head South from St Columba’s as seen on Sunday mornings LSD.
If nothing else running gives you an appreciation of the local bush and its beauty!
You were looking serene and tranquil on your jog back after 47km or so on Sunday. It must have been the flowers.
