Melbourne Marathon

At the start of October, the trees really started to fill in—slowly, and then all at once. We changed our clocks the first weekend of the month, springing forward into lighter evenings and the promise of warmer days ahead.

 


In mid-October, Tom ran the Melbourne Marathon, breaking his PR with a time of 3:36. With over 45,000 runners on the course, I almost missed him as he flew past Federation Square!

 
 
  

Tom's big win rolled straight into his birthday celebration with Oktoberfest at HofbrÀuhaus.




And as if we didn’t already have enough to celebrate, the biggest news: after more than three months of searching, we found a new rental! We’ll be moving bayside next month, just in time for summer.
