Pink Jacket round 3 - Bridge Pa (white tees) - 100 (25 points)
Bit of a nightmare. The driver stopped working, costing shots everywhere. Finished 8/22. 35 points the best score today.

Pink Jacket Day 2 - Hawkes Bay GC. 90 (32 points). Better conditions today and a fun course. Played a lot of good golf but seemed to get penalised heavily for every mistake, and the putts weren't dropping (though didn't miss anything that definitely should have been holed). Best score today was only a 37, so still in with a shout tomorrow.

1st day of the Pink Jacket - Waipukurau - 91 (32 points). Good with driver, poor with irons, good near the greens, poor on the greens. Reasonably happy though because there was constant strong wind and the best score was only 34.

The Mutiny Rd loop ACW.
Hot, humid, windy, so quite hard work! Last 5 minutes a struggle, but coming back along the base of the hill with the wind was good fun.

Te Mata. Green S. - Red N - Yellow S - Blue/purple
Fairly gentle recovery run. Didn't feel too bad except on the steepest uphills where the legs started feeling it. Knee and back fine.

NZ Champs Relay - Tuna Nui - Mixed Masters
3rd leg in the mini mass start. Surprisingly good after such a long day yesterday. Only beaten by a couple of first leg runners ad a little in front of Carsten. Don't think knowledge of the area helped much - it's just too easy. Plus hadn't visited any control feature that was used, which made it a bit more interesting. One slight time loss where I got confused navigating 7-8 when running 8-9.
A couple of twinges from my knee while crossing fences, but good otherwise.
