circuit.

Long run from Wendy and Lance's. I took it really slowly and only did a shorter loop on account of my arms felt like they were on fire and I was very tired. I went up the hill and down to Simpson Falls then back along the road. Time and distance are a guestimate. Then I had one of Rachel's yummy muffins to refuel.

River loop with Bridget. We were supposed to start at 7 but we left at about 7.30 and then Bridget got a puncture about 5 mins into the ride. We tried to change the tyre but my spare tube was too big so we had to wait 45 mins until the bike shop at Indro opened. Luckily there was a coffee shop nearby. we got the tube replaced by 8.40 and were finally on our way. Apart from a stop at southbank to have some of the best cupcakes EVER, the rest of the ride went smoothly. I got up the hill near the golf course that I can usually never get up too. And we got back only four hours after we left. I put intensity as 4 because it was 36 degrees and hot.

I had to get a Hep B vaccine today. Boooo

Turns out I'm even worse at night orienteering than I am at regular orienteering. It was scary but fun. I stepped on a toad, but there were no wolf creek men. I overshot no. 2 when I found a 'broken' fence and got confused.

Circuit training with a free group workout. All the stations hurt

They played Ant Music. WOOT

I did some rowing at the gym. I started with a 5min warm up and then alternating 1 min hard and 1 min slower recovery. I was going to stay for much longer but the stupid gym closed an hour earlier than I thought it was going to. I'll just have to do more tomorrow.

Had a massive tension headache all day so its a rest day.

Did the whole river loop for the first time with Bridget. Achievement! It was good but my quads and bum were quite sore by the end. Seeing Bridget fall over for no particular reason was pretty darn funny, and the guy who stopped his car to have a look was the cherry on top.

Long run from bridgey's place. I was still sore from the gym and was in lots of running induced pain in the last half. It was the longest I've run in a while. I'll have to get back into it. Got attacked by grass seeds a little though which was itchy.

Top part of the river loop with Bridget. I was quite revived after my morning nap so it wasn't hurty. Good fun.

Weights at the gym. My left knee really hurt when i was doing the sumo squats so i skipped them. Everything else hurt though.
