| Stretch 10:00 [1] | |
| Running race (Cross Country Relays) 17:20 [5]4.7 km (3:41 / km) vdot: 54.5 | |
| pretty annoyed with newcastle cross country advertising these as 5km and then getting back happoy with my time, only to be brough back down to earth when they say it was shorter. and i really thought this one WAS 5km aswel. after passing the shorter courses trun offs in under 3.30's and stuff. ah well.
and i really dont get it either. before my start today my quads were so sore from yesterdays run. yet, i go out and i feel soooooooooooooo much better. its wierd. was going to test out my bike for tomorrows event. but couldnt really be bothered. legs are sore. there was something else i was going to write aswel...meh. if i remember ill add it in. | ||

| Running race (Regional Cross Country) 23:00 [5]6 km (3:50 / km) vdot: 55.8 | |
| forgot to stop my watch. guessing it was about this. but...second lap was so much slower. i was going well first part (1st 3km = 10.42), but pretty much just fell apart. had nothing in the second lap and i got a stitch. was hardly moving along well at all. i mean...i guess i can really complain. i came 5th and made it to the next stage like i was hoping to. but i reckon i mighta got a bit lucky. pretty annoyed. i just...dont get why sometimes i will run good and feel great but others ill just feel terrible. i had a theory it might be because i completely rested the day before. maybe even doing a small, effortless run would be better than nothing. i guess i can pretty much only do better. and i sure hope i will, coz i know i can do ebtter than this. coach was cranky aswel! :( | ||

| Running race (Zone Athletics - 1500m) 4:47 [5]1.5 km (3:11 / km) vdot: 57.2 | |
| woo! so happy witht this run. i was aiming to beat 5mins and i did it :D beat some fair good athletics runners aswel. they slowed down at the start of the second lap i think. so i ran in front of them. really tried to push allong the 3rd lap. got a bit more in front of them. thought this guy was gonna overtake me at the end. but with about 250m to go i really tried to move along and he didnt get me :D yayyy. good day. and i bought 3 cds at jb hifi aswel (Y) | ||

| Gym (Cycle Class) 45:00 [5] | |
| was originally going to go for a swim but by the time i had a way of getting out to the pool it was probably a bit too late. Instead went to gym for cycle class. pretty tough too. at one stage my butt was absolutely caning!!! haha.
should have asked to stay and do some weights and stuff afterwards. not exactly happy with todays training for some reason. | ||
