| Running 34:00 [3] | |
| ran the mt taylor course from the last event of the summer series. felt good, orienteered reasonably well. didnt help much having an 8yr old version of the map without some of the features controls were meant to be on. started getting seriously dark in the last few controls | ||
Sunday Apr 29 | ||
| Running 1:05:00 [3] | |
| recovery run in melbourne. cos i finished so early yesterday i ended up getting a lift back last night, struggled finding somewhere to crash but ended up on victoria parade with a uni mate.
ran with Jared and zoe from brunswick st down thru fitzroy gardens, past the G (firing up for hawks v dogs) and did a lap of the tan (in WR slow time :) before coffee in federation square. felt pretty good considering everything. had to ask zoe to run slower for me. spent the arvo checking out the outlets on smith st. really enjoyed the trip down to melb, could definately see myself based there in a few years time | ||
Saturday Apr 28 | ||
| Event: Wilsons Prom Trail runs | ||
| Running 5:45:00 [3]45 km (7:40 / km) | |
|
picture this......615am, slept like shit, dark, cold, pissing horizontal rain, blowing a gale and walking up a hill straight into it....what the FUCK am i doing here, haha. luckily things got better after that, dont know whether it was light coming or maybe the rain easing but frame of mind improved heaps and got into the run. approached this more as a long easy type day out than a race...had to carry a fair bit of compulsory shit too. originally was entered for the 60km, but a combination of not feeling fantastic and lack of motivation to punish myself made the decision to cut onto the 45 loop relatively easy. ended up being a fun day, lots of pics and got in a bit after midday so could spend a leisurely arvo chilling at the prom. well worth the trip down, bit of a shame not getting down to the lighthouse but im sure that can happen another time. | ||
Friday Apr 27 | ||
| Running 30:00 [3] | |
| cruisey run with zoe from her place on swanston up thru melb uni and round the big park there, princess park (??). pretty cruisey. spent the day wandering round melb catching up with a mate before heading out to the prom. | ||
Wednesday Apr 25 | ||
| Cycling 2:55:00 [3] | |
| anzac day cotter urriara ride.
Frogga made his debut. good bunch with kez, tommy Q, grant, myself and davo meeting us a little into the ride. weather pretty miserable. just tried to keep it in my pants today, stay relaxed climbing and save energy. apple and cinnamon porridge at gus's was a nice way to end the ride. yay for public holidays! | ||
Tuesday Apr 24 | ||
| Running 39:00 [3] | |
| planned to run some sort of intervals but hadnt decided what or where before leaving home.
ended up doing some short hill reps on parli house. pretty nervous cos i didnt know if the guards were going to shoot me or not, none said anything but one kept a pretty good eye on me, maybe just cos he had nothing better to do than watch me huff and puff up the hill. reps b/w 45 and 50secs depending on which angle i ran the hill. after 8 was shagged, bit disappointing but didnt want to spew on our nations home of democracy....the guards definately would have shot me then. trying to take it pretty easy this week | ||
| Netball 30:00 [3] | |
| mixed netball.
got done pretty well tonight despite some good team work. positive signs though. | ||

Saturday Apr 21 | ||
| Cycling 4:45:00 [3] | |
| ride down into namadgi nearly 120km....interesting day out.
hit the turps far far too hard last night so had to deal with the fact i felt shit and possibly still a bit drunk before the start of 5hrs or so of riding. at least it could only get better. fortunately i didnt end up hurting as much as i thought i might. rode down to tuggers, quick pitstop at point hut (and on the way back also....nothing like a bit of symmetry) then down to tharwa. originally were going to do honeysuckle but decided to ride sth to the end of the road. fitzs really smashed me, could barely hold much more than 8km/h....ouch. kez dropped a bombshell a few km after saying he wasnt feeling fantastic and how far is the end of the road....hinting i think at an early turnaround. i made the mistake of calling him a pussy....he responded by saying we are riding to the end. rode to a bit past glendale and turned round a bit after gudgenby river after my sense got the better of me, starting to feel hunger flat and with 60km back home. bit nervy riding down fitzs given its history. quick soft drink and chocolate in tharwa got me on a massive sugar high and riding strong again. last stop was woden for lunch. I think we were both a bit soft and crap today, bit of a shame but still a great day out. maybe honeysuckle next time...or ints up fitzs.... | ||
Friday Apr 20 | ||
| Cycling 2:10:00 [3] | |
| pete with tommyQ, hoggster and kez (till barton hwy....soft cock!).
started out a bit late so flogged it riding to cook only to find no one there at 630, turns out my watch was 5 minutes fast...sant ar livet. pretty cruisey morning. Big effort by Jase who put in a stellar perfomance at the coffee shop | ||
| Cycling (MTB) 2:20:00 [3] | |
| ah.....what a day!
had a positive job int today so might be having a bit less time on my hands, thought id better make the most of it. rode into uni for a coffee. over to bruce ridge for a solid 30mins on the single track, dickson so a custard scroll from bakers delight as some fuel then met up with Gail and cruised round majura pines for an hawesome our and a bit late afternoon. feeling pretty good but i just hope that i dont pay for today on the namadgi ride 2moz. | ||
Wednesday Apr 18 | ||
| Running 50:00 [3] | |
| ints up on red hill.
did a pyramid session 1(1),2(2),3(3),2(2),3(3),2(2),1(1)1(30)1 with the rest in brackets. mixed it up a fair bit running on a variety of trail types and did the 2 long ints on uphill tracks. found it hard to run hard enought to justify the lenght of the floats so i think i either need to extend the session or cut down the rest times. nice evening out | ||
| C • pyramids 2 | ||
Tuesday Apr 17 | ||
| Running 1:15:00 [3] | |
| trying out the new cascadias i just got and hoping to use for a trail run in a week and a half.
ran down round middle basin, up round east side of town then along bottom of ainslie to dixon oval | ||
| Running (drills) 45:00 [3] | |
| bilbys intervals.
started with the best intentions of running these. but after doing the drills and warm up i felt real buggered and the lure of dinner at debacle got the better of me after 2 of the approx 700m ints and i ran to kezzas earlier than planned. still feel quite fatigued from all the o races | ||
Monday Apr 16 | ||
| Cycling 1:25:00 [3] | |
| round middle basin, out to the sub then back thru uni, round the lake and up red hill with davo and kez. was nice to go for a ride after all the orienteering in the last week but legs felt pretty shagged up red hill. | ||

Sunday Apr 15 | ||
| Orienteering race 1:35:30 [3] | |
| classic today. 14km. pretty happy with my run. after a week of this that or the other bothering me it was good to string together a solid run on the last day. lost around 6 minutes so by no means clean but just plugged away and got thru in much better shape than last sundays epic.
glad to see the end of these races actually. felt like ive just been going out into the desert each day for a run. quite a harsh awakening also running elites of just how much crapper i am :) good to have something to aim at at least. jules kez and i bought some bargin shoes from the states a few weeks ago and they had arrived when we got back! | ||
Saturday Apr 14 | ||

| aus middle dist champs at pewsey vale
......if only. felt like i was going awesome today through to the spectator control with a bit over a km left. ryan caught me, thought id grab a tow for a leg, we fuck it, i end up stumbling round lost, nail myself of a bush and decide to not even finish. soft i know. | ||

| Orienteering race 20:50 [3] | |
| ASC galaxy sprint.
drove up from rattrays pad in the morning to nurioopta where the race was (stayed in the campground we ran thru). bit untidy, in hindsight i was trying to force the pace all the time and not slowing down when i needed to in detail. | ||
