 | Orienteering (Metro League) 38:00 [3] 3.2 km (11:52 / km) | |
| shoes: New Balance 781 |
| Running division 3, which I think made me a bit complacent when I lost 5 mins at 1, but got back on track after that, not real quick but consistent. Nice forest with small rock outcrops.
Still got fastest time by 6 mins. |
| run warm up/down 12:00 [2] 2 km (6:00 / km) | |

| Bit of an epic run from Parramatta to Artarmon with Andy. Watched the Eels get beaten by the Sea Eagles, then set out in the right general direction. A bit too far north through Telopea added a bit of time and so did getting lost in North Ryde RSL car park after a short cut went wrong. Checking google maps our route was real close to optimum after the first part. The hill up Mowbray Rd was a real killer. |
Saturday Jul 28 |
| run 48:00 [3] 10 km (4:48 / km) | |
| shoes: Nike Stucture Triax 9 |
| Felt like I had the startings of a flu all day, real tired (although that probably letour, those riders think they are doing it tough!) and unenergetic.
Then I got out just before dinner and felt like I was floating, wasnt putting a foot wrong. Even up the hills I was doing it easy. Not too quick though, just didnt hurt so much.
No doubt I will feel like rubbish tomorrow.
Went down to the bridge, under the bridge (downtown), aorund Luna Park and Lavender Bay and up West St home. |

Thursday Jul 26 |
| run 20:00 [5] 3 km (6:40 / km) | |
| shoes: Asics 2100 |
| 5 x Wonga Rd stair hills, almost killed me. I've never felt stomach sick after intense exercise before but tonight was the night. Also massive lactic after 3 meant the last two were more of a slow weights session rather than a springy plyometric type action.
Good to get it done though. |
| run 30:00 [3] 6 km (5:00 / km) | |
| shoes: Asics 2100 |
| Ran down to Primrose Park for the stair intervals at a good pace then wobbled home on numb legs. |
Wednesday Jul 25 |
| run 42:00 [3] 8 km (5:15 / km) | |
| shoes: Nike Stucture Triax 9 |
| Just managed to snatch a rest day away from the jaws of laziness. Got back to watch le tour, so that shows late it was. Those rest days can breed like rabbits if you're not careful, especially around here. |
Monday Jul 23 |
| run 54:00 [3] 11 km (4:55 / km) | |
| shoes: Nike Stucture Triax 9 |
| Down to Balls Head, a lap, then back. Got out straight after work so a few people out running, I usually go a bit later like 9 oclock. The run was an uptempo pace for 10 mins then I would overcook and walk for 30 secs then repeat.
Saw Shep prying open his third eye. Ugly. |

| shoes: Nike Stucture Triax 9 |
| I set a club event at Penrose. Ran the long red course collecting controls plus a few deviations to clump controls on tracks for car collection. A great day for a forest frolic. Didnt have any hill strength to speak of. |
Saturday Jul 21 |

Where the hell has this week gone?
After a week of slowly building excitement I was informed I wont be required in Laos for a month for work. Bummer. |

| At night down the cycleway along Gore Hill freeway from Cammeray to Pacific Hwy at Artarmon. Felt a bit off, but was mainly sore from pounding the concrete. Nice cycleway though. |

Thursday Jul 12 |
| run 45:00 [3] 9 km (5:00 / km) | |
| shoes: Nike Stucture Triax 9 |
| Holy dooley I felt like rubbish on this run. Up towards Mosman through the leafy streets at night. Stumbled across a friendly rabbit in the middle of the street and made enough noise to get the most of the street icluding the owner out of their house to get it inside. Extra merit on this run for the sprints to catch the thing. |
