| shoes: new NORTH FACE Anurva |
| down the highway to Glenn's new place, then down Bluegum creek, Fairyland Loop then Lizard Loop and home. Glenn set a good pace but was puffing like Shep the steam engine. Felt quite good and kept up a good tempo til the end but was pretty hungry. |
Saturday Mar 1 |
| Run (Fairyland Loop) 55:00 [3]10 km (5:30 / km) | |
| shoes: new NORTH FACE Anurva |
| Evening run from the flat. Legs feeling good until I finished and my right hip really tightened up again. Very disappointing cos it's been good for a while but must not like Sydney tracks. |
| Note | |
| |
| The last month has been pretty good for running, without really planning it. 37hrs (including orienteering) is the most I've done in a month since I started logging in Dec 05. Pretty happy with that so hopefully Orienteering might be a bit more consistent. |
Friday Feb 29 |
| Run (Lillydale Lake) 30:00 [2]5 km (6:00 / km) | |

| Kayak (Lillydale Lake) 45:00 [3]7 km (6:26 / km) | |

| In Josh's Time machine and Jodie's tiny paddle. Good for technique since the paddle wasn't offering too much resistance. A couple of times around the lake plus a few loops of the islands. Nice morning. |
| Run hills (The Scar) 35:00 [4] | |
| shoes: new NORTH FACE Anurva |
| Stopped on the way back from the lake and did one rep up The Scar. Considered doing 2, but my calves were so tight I would have had to walk up backwards. |

Tuesday Feb 26 |
| Road Cycling long (Tyers to Walhalla return) 2:45:00 [3]83.6 km (1:58 / km) | |
| |
| morning ride with Murray (a local triathlete and owner of Personal training business in Traralgon). Fantastic ride, on relatively good and safe roads through beautiful forests. Turn around and coffee at Walhalla, a historic gold-mining town, come tourist town. I had thought of scoping this area out for orienteering terrain (based solely on the the goldmining history) but now I've been here i realise it is far too mountainous for orienteering. Ride out was from 70m to 350m at Walhalla and a highest point of 450m. Did another 20mins on the flat from Tyers when we got back. Legs felt quite good, but calves very stiff from the w/e.
Now I've seen what its like in this area i'm keen to get out and do some exploring on the mtb and running. |

| shoes: Nike Bowerman |
