morning ride with olly through brookefield then river loop. delayed the start coz of rain but looked like it was clearing.....it wasnt. got halfway up to gold creek reservoir and it started to bucket down rain then it just got heavier as we came back down. ended up riding through ankle deep water in places. pace was slow to not break anything on the ridiculously wet roads. for safety's sake we gave upper brookfield a miss and headed in but it cleared up so chucked on a river loop. added some sprints and KOM sections to spice it up. olly - 5, me - 1. kieran fail.....

usual - arms, chest, abs and leg press

long run from lance and wendys. bit tight at the start but loosened up before i hit the first climb. up malcuta, then across to simpsons fall track and up to channel 9. down jacksonia to gap creek for a drink then struggled up kokoda (had to walk for a bit about 50m from the top). round the top to the summit then down slaughter falls, round the bottom then up simpsons falls, back onto macuta and down to lance and wendys. cracked at 80 mins and was feeling quite tired and dehydrated. sweated bucketloads....

got sick of it pretty quickly

intervals at UQ with Macca. almost gave this one a miss when it was pissing rain when my alarm went off. stopped raining about 30secs after i walked out the door so perfect timing. 6 x 1km round the gravel track.

felt steady but not overly quick or zippy. happy with consistant times but would like to get times to something about 10 - 20 secs quicker
