Park run 26:37 [3] 5.0 km (5:19 / km) +42m 5:07 / km
ahr:144 max:152
Coombs parkrun on the new double loop course for the first time. It has a sizeable rise which has to be done twice. No zip in the legs after the weeks training load - but was able to run reasonably comfortably. A couple of orienteers were there including Mark Gregson who got 4th place. Warm and overcast.

MTB 1:40:00 [3] 36.0 km (2:47 / km) +350m 2:39 / km
Back to the arboretum again but by MTB - larger peloton today with 5 riders and a dog. Long coffee break half way, where amongst other things, there was plenty of discussion about the forthcoming poetry readings at the DRAG Xmas Gathering and Shindig.

Run 32:47 [3] 5.3 km (6:11 / km) +148m 5:26 / km
ahr:138 max:164
Cadence (aka mountain goats) running training at the arboretum but wth a 31C temp thrown in for fun. Felt very average on the 2 km warm up loop. Then had 6 loops of a circuit with one very steep climb (which I walked each time). Felt better after 2 loops but 6 was my max. Each loop was around 3.5 minutes at temp pace. Finished off with some butt running technique - basically running with one foot lifted high close to your but for say 10 times while you hobble on the other foot - then switch legs and repeat. There was some logic to it but it went over my head. Passed on the warm down lap as too warm already.

ride with Peter 1:43:46 [3] 40.14 km (2:35 / km) +407m 2:28 / km
ahr:116 max:146
Peleton of 6 with a 8.30 am start to beat the heat. No wind here today for a change so very pleasant riding conditions around the LBG circuit. 2nd place in the Scrivener Dam hill sprint - but only by a bike length. Lots and lots of bikes on the path going both ways - reinforcing the drastic need to duplicate the bike paths in the heart of the nation. Peloton rode home together rather than raced today - not sure why - maybe no one had on their race face.
6 AM
Strength and conditioning 1:00:00 [3] 1.0 km (1:00:00 / km)
Great sunrise this morning as I headed to the exercise class - really bright red/pink colours. Usual mixture of exercises which helped the time go by quickly.

Solo run from home to Stromlo and around a bit of the single track in Holden's Creek and a lap of the cross country track then back. Nice running conditions early in the morning.

Around 2 basins of LBG with Dairy Farmers Hill thrown into the mix. Windy but not as baad as yesterday. Slog up Dairy Farmers Hill going clockwise.
