| Thought I was feeling too good yesterday afternoon after my long morning run, woke up with very sore hamstrings. Had our club Xmas run at CSU this morning (on the NSW Sprint map from earlier this year). After a warm up felt ok. No mistakes, however I do know the area pretty well

| Headed over the hill to the uni pool after o'ing, not really sure if I was meant to be using it since I haven't been a student for 3 years, but noone was there to tell me not too. Not sure how long the pool is, its either 30m or 35m, and once again was a struggle. Had the pool to myself thou. |

| My first 2 hour run in over a year. Took it steady and felt really good, the best part thou was my hip didn't hurt at all, yippeeee!!!
Did part of the Wiradjuri walking track again, from home over Red Hill and then out to Silverlite via Kapooka then up Pomingalarna. Stopped for a short breather at the top and then ran down and through the golf course to Flowerdale Lagoon, hadn't run on the southern most part of this track before and was freaking out everytime I heard a russle in the long grass. Decided to go down Moorong St instead of down to the River and then past the Beach to the Tourist info centre where Dad picked me up. |

| (rest day) |
| Alarm went off too early today, decided it was a good time to have a rest day. Went for a walk in the arvo with Dad, I was testing out my orthotics and he was testing out his knee, reckoned he wouldnt be able to walk very fast but managed to jog a couple of steps |

| Kooringal street score event. Wasn't really in the running mood this arvo and was well under the 45min time limit. Lots of in and outs of small streets, got to one control and the question was 'what colour is the garage door'.... I stood there for a few seconds until I realised the garage door was up and had to take a punt, first time thats happened. Dropped my pencil as well so had to remember the last few answers.

| Running 1:08:00 [3] | |
| shoes: Asics Gel Kayano 13 (2) |
| Felt like I was running on the spot this morning, very slow... maybe it was due to the Indian I had last night. By the end was glad I ran so slow. Physio this morn, finally got my orthotics (after discovering one leg is longer than the other, I have a funky wedge as well) they feel very weird, just have to wear them walking for a couple of hours each day and then prob in 2 weeks start running with them.

| Felt surprisingly motivated after work for another run, thought id test myself with another lap of the lake. Felt pretty good cept the wind blowing off the lake and blowing me around. Surprised to go under 25mins, really need to work on my speed (or lack of!) |

Monday Dec 3 |
| Cycling (Mtb) 1:05:00 [3] | |
| |
| Looked like I was going to be in for a wet and windy cycle this arvo, big storm clouds brewing over town and rain on the drive home... but as always the rain stopped about 10mins into my ride. Wore my new bright yellow cycling jacket, think I ended up more wet on the inside than out, damn thing doesn't breathe!! |
