Running 1:01:02 [3] 12.2 km (5:00 / km)
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 9
Steady morning run out past the Lake and then through Rawlings Park to Mitchell Rd and return. Fairly slow at first to try and warm up a dodgy knee and achilles, then picked up the pace a little for the remainder. Out in 31 mins, back in 30.
Running race 27:35 [5] 5.6 km (4:56 / km)
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 10
Road Runners at Wagga Beach. First official run after last week's heatwave ono-race. Close to 20C cooler this week and overcast which made for very pleasant running conditions.
Was very slow at first as I was pretty sore form this morning's run and was trying out new shoes but picked up the pace in the 2nd half and was happy with the time. Shoes great!

Orienteering race 46:00 [5] * 8.4 km (5:29 / km)
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 9
Summer Series from Briohny's house in Urana St. The run was through the Mt Austin and Turvey Park areas. 30 minutes before the run, it started to RAIN. And it just kept raining right through the run! (still raining now 5 hours later). Also very cool (about 15C compared to the previous 2 weeks when it has been 40+)
Started well and was making good time, picking off controls. Then I ran out of a playground on the south of the map and across what usually is an open field. Today it had 6 inches of water right across it, a result of an overflowing stormwater channel, so shoes got pretty soaked!
A dumb error coming back when I did a 180 (on a Street map!) and ended up going round an extra town block. Cost me a control (ran out of time)and a time penalty.

Running 41:30 [3] 7.0 km (5:56 / km)
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 9
Afternoon run in Sydney, cool and drizzly rain which was great for running after the weather at home over the last 2 weeks. Ran from hotel at Crows Nest down thru Cammeray to Tunks Park on the waters edge then back under Northbridge bridge and up along great single bush tracks with lots of stairs along Flat (not) Rock Creek and back to the hotel through Crows Nest.

Sydney for meetings: managed to sqeeze in 9 holes at North Ryde after work today - gotta love this daylight saving! Nice course, quite short but tight fairways, my game didn't match up.
