have just done my first workout. Man I'm puffed - and so's the dog! Note to self: don't start the workout until the dog has done her busy. Lucky she only did it during the warmup!

We live in the Dandenongs, and I just did the workout from Belgrave to Upwey along the trainline. Downhill to Upwey ... and uphill to Belgrave! 2.3km and 1700-odd steps.

The last one though is strange - he says "you're doing well" at the end of the running sets, and he said that with "only 20 more seconds" by which time I'd already slowed down.

I feel good though!
