| really disappointing. dont really know what went wrong, just felt smashed. fun morning with some beach running, ocean paddling, coasteering, bike pushing on the beach and rafting. started a 15km O section bit before lunchtime and wasnt pushing too hard. by halfway thru id run out of water, couldnt eat and was all dizzy and had no idea what was going on. struggled home and got passed by some teams who i thought were ahead but must have been a fair way behind. spent almost an hour trying to get things together back at the camp ground. didnt feel much better but started out on the ride. did a few kms but it just wasnt happening so rode back.

| the big one....canberra-coast (moruya) MTB. have been keen to do this for a while after riding from captains flat 2 or so years ago and thought would be a good hit out before the 50hr next weekend. ended up having an enjoyable and tough long day in the saddle.
rode with barto and beth starting at 6am. fairly windy and chilly out towards hoskinstown at the 40km mark. drizzles started around then but never got too heavy. really nice flowing sections through tallaganda nat park before heading down towards majors creek. the descent down into the araluen valley was even cooler than i remembered.
barto and i couldn't help easing in to a pie and cold beer at the araluen pub (90km) before heading down to Deua river for the last "flat" 69km to moruya.
Had been feeling really strong all day doing the majority of the work on the front when the wind was up. Beth was going awesome but hit the wall pretty bad with 40km to go and wasnt looking real good. I pushed her up any hill which turned a comfy arvo into a solid one cos i started going into the red a bit. coped alright though and we rolled into moruya with just under 8hrs riding time.
exactly the sort of day i wanted and now hopefully i recover well. gonna be a real easy week now.
hamburger and dip at the beach before heading home. Loooooong day............ |
