| NGOC Regional at Cleeve Hill, Chelt. JW5L, 3rd behind Alice (54) and Catherine Higgs (54) so not too far down. Jeff did 49, Liam & Jackie B 52. Beat Cat B and Liz W. Was fairly happy with run, just small mistake around no 12. Running ok, steady but not fast. Was really windy up on the top, but quite a warm day and got quite hot in the sheltered areas. Think I was a bit dehydrated when I finished. |

| Easy run - once round the perimeter of the golf course and then down the hill to the swimming pool from the clubhouse. Footpath round the golf course gently undulating and quite rough underfoot, then charged down the hill doing 1km in under 4 mins! Went swimming straight after but couldnt swim properly cos of inflatable session, just relaxed in the water for 20 mins. |

| athletics race (long jump) 30:00 [4] | |

| Long Jump competition, not jumping very well at all, 4.54 on last jump. 3rd jump was very good but dropped my leg before landing so lost a metre or so....would have been around 4.80 I think! 5th. Did a bit of practise in the other pit afterwards and was jumping much better...nearly 5m every time with no runup! |
