| Summer series at Black Mountain. Started just ahead of mass start full of boys so got to see a little bit of them as they ran past. Was feeling a bit tired running today and a bit can't-be-bothered-ish. |

| Cross Country at North Curtin oval. Felt like I paced it well this week and very happy to crack 20. Grace and I ran next to each other all the way back which helped keep a good pace, although I couldn't keep up at the end. |

| Today was a return to the good old sunday long run from the gate at hackett. Ran with Jase, Al, Shannon and Grant up Majura and on lots of single tracks in Majura pines. Back over Hackett Hill to finish up. Followed by pancakes at sfoglia. Never thought I'd say there was a bit too much maple syrup, but yummy nonetheless. |

| Ran summer series at Bluetts. Started just ahead of Rob and Kez in a semi cockies mass start so tried to hold onto them for a few controls, then got a bit tired once I was on my own. Still, felt like I was running ok and was fun to run on a not so familiar map. |

| Cross country at National Library. Felt heaps better than last week and paced myself better but slower time. (I like to think it was a long course :). It was very helpful running with jase on the way back to help keep up the pace. It sure was a hot one. |

| Ran on the beach at Shoalhaven Heads with other cockies and co then around a bit further on a less sandy surface. Very nice to run along the beach but unbelievable how slow time goes. It was pretty hot so nice to finish up with a quick dip in the ocean. Made a stop at Woodfired sourdough cafe at Berry. super. |

| Did a loop from where we were staying near Kangaoo Valley over Cambawarrea Pass to Noosa, along highway to Berry and back up to kangaroo valley. It was a cool ride. It had a couple of big climbs in it which were pretty tough in the heat. One hairpin was so steep I came to a complete standstill and had to walk my bike for a bit till i could get back on. |

| Went for a run with Mace and Seb out near a dam (forgotton the name). It poured rain and there was an incident with some scarily close lightening but it was fun once soaked and still got to see some cool views. |

| Ran xc at weston park. It was the version of the course that goes along the bike path to governor general's house. Felt great at the start but by the turnaround was suffering. Maybe should have thought about not eating all afternoon beforehand cos my stomach was killing so struggled on the way back. Legs were fine though. Still, happy with the time considering. |

| Ran "2 Peaks" moutain run (Ainslie and Majura). Felt pretty good but probably didn't run the first half hard enough. Find it a bit hard to pace myself right over 26km. Felt good on the uphills but lose so much time running down. |

| Road up Mt Buffalo from Bright. Had never been up there before and didn't know what I was in for. It was a long long steady climb and thought I was never going to get there. Finally got there in a bit over 2 hours. Awesome mountain though and great views. |

| Mt Feathertop mountain run. Can't say it was stacks of fun. The weather was miserable and bad enough that the race didn't go all the way to the top but stopped at the hut at the edge of the tree line. A bit disappointing to not get all the way but probably a bit lucky for me since I was already stuffed and hips in agony.
