Orienteering race (Blodslitet) 2:28:11 [2] **** 19.85 km (7:28 / km) +1175m 5:46 / km
ahr:148 max:184 shoes: VJ twisters

long and steep.
Daylesford = cold

Jim obviously realised his initial pre-race excuse was not going to cut it.

only one bandit this year.

walked most of the last loop. come to think of it, spent most of the second loop walking and talking with toph.

my loop speeds were: 5min/km, 6min/km, 9min/km

Run long 46:46 [3] 10.65 km (4:23 / km) +168m 4:04 / km
ahr:169 max:184 shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 7

wanted to go for a long run; but didn't want to ruin myself before tomorrow (mainly I didn't want Jim to be able to use the pre race long run excuse)

Ocean Grove to Point Lonsdale and back;

didn't get all the way to the light house; fell about a km short; but as I'd already been running for 25min and I'd told my grandmother I'd be back in 40 minutes; I decided to turn around.

forgot about having to run into the wind on the way back.

the large amount of dogs on the beach got me to thinking about the absolute LACK OF DOGS IN CANBERRA. I think I've seen one whilst running so far this year, and that was when I got lost and ended up in the 'badlands' of Mount Pleasant.

Run warm up/down 15:00 [3]
shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 7

for some reason mortie wanted to run A BILLION warm up laps.

Run race (time trial) 10:24 [4]
ahr:185 max:196 shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 7

was a bit disappointed in this time.

thought I'd use Mortie as a pace car and then sprint off on him in the last 2 laps.
either we went out too slow; or I should have made it the last three laps.
was aiming for under 10min. and was very energetic at the end.

laps:
39secs

Bike (instructing) 3:00:00 [1]

we run a session where we take the school groups on a mountain bike scatter-orienteering course.
they have to pick up 5 of the 8 checkpoints on the slopes of Mount Little Joe and Mount Bride. can usually get quite tough up the hills; unfortunately today's group was a little less navigationally inclined and spent much of the morning heading all over the shop; which was then complimented by over caution in the second half, which slowed us down substantially.

so looks like I am going for the most training on the shortest day.
have to justify yesterday's rest day and the dismal week so far.

Run warm up/down 5:00 [2]
shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 7

waiting for the sattelites.

Run intervals (Mt. Little Joe) 37:30 [2] 6.73 km (5:34 / km) +343m 4:26 / km
ahr:160 max:188 shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 7

had to go for a run today and seeing as this is SUPPOSED to be an intense week I decided I should take advantage of the hills.

today's training could only be described as a destroyer of the quadriceps.

had a few things against me, like the 3 layers of clothing that seemed like a good idea at the start.

out along the river and along the pipeline trail from the yarra to yankee Jim's. unfortunately this is the wrong direction to run it in.

Britannia Creek Pipeline

ran back along the rail trail and the river.

took it a bit too easy to consider this a WORTHWHILE SESSION.

I can't believe I haven't ran the full length of this track before.

Run warm up/down 10:13 [3]
ahr:169 max:172 shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 7

only had 20 minutes, so I decided to make it worth it;

hurtled down Dee road across the scary bridge and out along the rail trail.

Run hills 9:20 [4] 1.39 km (6:43 / km) +144m 4:25 / km
ahr:178 max:187 shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 7

straight up the little joe firebreak and then down the pipeline trail (up and down and up and down) toward the yarra.

killer hill intervals; will be going back for some mtb instructing on thursday so will try and get a more impressive hill run in...

Run warm up/down 9:43 [3] 2.06 km (4:43 / km) +83m 3:56 / km
