| Orienteering race (Paddy Pallin Rogaine) 4:29:00 [3] | ||
| slept:7.5 shoes: red Salomon 3D Pro | ||
| finally found a partner at 6pm last night. Tracy pulled out on Paula Shingler (Bigfooter, 40+ mum of two) and she was still keen to go.
Drove up with Mace and camped at Rydal Showground. I came here in about 1989. It's the first time I remember hanging out with Andy and Stefan Sicha. Unfortunately all the recent rain meant that the Cox's river was flooded and half the course had to be cancelled. So the whole course fitted on the old Jack's Place Orienteering map. Bloody awesome area, open eucalypt spur gully and northern third pine forest. We had a pretty good race, lost 5mins on one, 3mins on another. Paula was fast on the flat, and even faster on the downhills. She tired a bit on the hills near the end, but so did everyone. 3rd overall, and first Mixed team. Rob V and Stu Adams won in 4hrs9mins. So I gave away the Open trophy this year, but picked up the mixed :-) | ||

Body has held up well which is a good sign. But pretty sleepy most of the day. | ||

| slept:8.5 (rest day) | ||
| Finished 4th with is my best result yet. Looking good for 2010 after my 7th, 6th, 5th and 4th in previous years.
We had a pretty good race- but just not good enough. I felt pretty good today- like i could keep racing which was a good sign as XPD would be at least another 3.5 days longer. Killer breakfast- 4 bacon,egg and sausage sangas followed by basically as much ice cream as i could jam down my throat. Weather was amazingly good all weekend. Drove home was made more interesting as the Hunter river was meant to break it's banks at Hexham at 7pm. It was bloody close at 6.30pm. The bad weather meant no one was on the road so it was a very quick trip | ||
