8 AM

Walking 1:45:00 [1] 5.0 km (21:00 / km)

Amusing wander with daughter who discovered that Wii golf and the real thing are somewhat different.Mind you, I wasn't all that much better.

9 AM

Back, core and achilles 15:00 [2]

5 PM

Pseud-O 41:48 [3] 6.15 km (6:48 / km) +50m 6:32 / km
shoes: ASICS Kayano white

A return to Bendigo by Pseud-O after quite a few years. The decline in running speed in the intervening years made quite apparent at the point when I was passed by someone who was half my height.
Clssic dilemma experienced. Do I go for that last control. It was tight and decided discretion was the better part. Arrived at finish 3.15 early. Calculations reveal I would have taken 4.10 to get the extra control. So would have been back 55 seconds late, and lost the value of that control. Might have been worth the extra run to get that panic sprint at the end.
Looks like a good chance that in a a year or so the club will have a single map of all Bendigo and the forests surrounding it.

8 AM

Technical training (Kooyoora) 1:01:40 [3] **** 5.7 km (10:49 / km) +140m 9:38 / km
spiked:15/20c shoes: ASICS Kayano white

Korong Spur. Middle distance course designed by the visiting Brits. Good reminder of the coming season and the need to concentrate in granite.
Started at 8- late compared with golf... but it is a 60 minute drive to get there.
After once exercise most decided it was too warm to do the next two. So I will return mid week to have a go.
Rn the course with Nigel. At most controls we looked for alternate routes on the next leg and ran them, hopefully emerging together at the next control. That generally happened.

11 AM

Walking 45:00 [1] 3.0 km (15:00 / km) +90m 13:03 / km
shoes: ASICS Kayano white

Gave up the mapping due to heat. It took more concentration than I could muster.

7 AM

Walking 1:30:00 [1] 6.0 km (15:00 / km)

Mildly less frustrating. Am looking forward to the promise of a round of golf with daughter. She tells me she will do ok because she gets pars and birdies on Wii golf, and the real thing can't be much different, can it? Evil grin.
