| |
| Went down to Macedon with Leon and Bryan to run with Troy, didn't know if I should do this as I had just done the longest run for the year two days ago.
Not to bad on the climb, but felt a little tired, once I hit the top, I pushed the pace as often as I could. Instigated more surges than anyone else, and never won one. Very good fun, and felt good at the end. |

| ORIENTEERING (Rogaine) 2:43:32 [4] | |
| |
| Ran with Troy and Bruce in the Porcupine Pursuit rogaine.
Plan was to run hard and long for 3 hrs, Troy was going well and Bruce was with him most of the way, I dropped of a bit about 90 mins, but kept up towards the end. Tried to race Troy to the 2nd last control, lost that as well. 163 mins was shorter than planned, but it was the right time to come in, no need to over do it, Easter is only 3 weeks away |

(was Charles going to go cut the corner through his block) Bit of Forest tonight, Toph was the 1st to go another way, then Birchy dropped of, Leon started to go home and I was enjoying myself so much, so I disregarded the watch and got all but 1 control, came in 7 mins late, so penalised 210 points, to put it at 460, 50 points behind Toph's winning score,

| Finished my ride at 1pm, and while I was eating lunch I got a call to be at work by 3.30, didn't finish there until 7.30, so this run was done mostly in the dark, good thing there are street lights about.

Started 1 min behind Luise, 2 behind Bruce and 3 behind Yasmine, saw Luise running down wrong spur at 3, never saw Bruce, and took me until 13 to get in front of Yasy, maybe i was not running as well as I thought )-; Enjoyed the run in a nice area. |

| |
| Fast start, saw Dave just as I entered the complex stuff for the 1st time, he was navigating well through those controls, put the pace on for the long leg, but couldn't drop him, caught Toph as well. Lost my head as we went into the Southern controls, (I was in front of Bruce till 14, and Bryan at about 10) Finally made it out onto a track, Toph cracked but Dave sat in the, then for no reason he was gone, ran the last long leg home well.
Apart from finding the map hard to read in places, was mostly happy with how it all went |
