| road ride homw from uni via waitaks. came down to swanson then up to the catfood place and back through kumeu. itb on left leg is playing up like it did before mtb worlds. spent basically the whole ride concentrating on my left pedal stroke, to stop my heel kicking out on the upstrake. semi succesful. just gotta friction it now and do the strength stuff. hopefully gone by friday |

| ride at woodhill. really should have been studying as i managed to piss around all morning doing nothing. rode big loop of bikepark. that place bores me, so went and rode down to pot luck which i find better despite it being mainly flat straight gravel roads. then realised i had lost my drink bottle somewhere, and i wanted a drink so i backtracked for about 40 min til i found it then back to carpark. really wasnt feeling the tracks ay. roads were way funnerer. |

| rode home from town. feeling real tired and crap. had first exam this morning so thats probably why. motorpaced through kumeu behind a van, would have made it through to the top of huapai, but a car pulled out so i had to brake pretty hard and to no hit him and lost all my speed. also had to stop a couple of times near the start to adjust the cleats on my shoes. a mm can make such a huge difference. |

| sprint o at western park. legs felt weird running at speed again but wasnt too slow. ankle was average despite being taped which slowed me down on the transverse hill running. navigation was pretty good, little 5-10sec errors all over the place but nothing big. Except mispunching, went to number 8 but pulled my ident out too fast. annoyed but not too anoyed. I had done 13.24, mark was first but would have been second in 14.40 with a pretty good run. happy with that. |
