It began like most days.<br />
A delicious, peaceful warmth being interrupted<br />
by an alarm which was followed by a grunt.<br />
As one foot chased the other to the coffee<br />
machine, my internal sun began to shine.<br />
A few minutes later the bitter beauty was doing<br />
its job and my nticipation of the day drew a<br />
smile.<br />
Today’s run has been 20 years in the making.<br />
Each kilometre would say thanks to the hundreds<br />
of driven Queenslanders that held a reverence<br />
for their <strong>MX5</strong> above trivialities like sleep, rain &<br />
cold.<br />
Hundreds of Queenslanders had built our club<br />
for fun and as I backed out of the garage, I said a<br />
silent thanks.<br />
