Afternoon run in Albury. Down to the river and out to the wetlands and back again.

Event: ACT Long Dist Champs at Gibraltar Hill (ACT League # 10)
 

A pretty poor effort today with nav mistakes at 2, 4, 5 and 6 and a slight overrun at 8. Also, although my running fitness is OK, I struggled with terrain fitness coming off the Half last weekend. After that all was good:-) Was too high on 2 and then no plan when I got into the rock at 4. Missed it high and long, then again high on very short leg to 5 before brain fade on 6, stopping short and completely missed reading the big clearing that I was wandering past. After that, got my head together and started to plan the legs with only the slight miss at 8. Got 2nd in a small field but well down on David Polland who had a great run in tough terrain for his first ever Champs win!

Despite Selwood being a protected species, Bartel winning an Oscar and goal review failing again, a great win by the Hawks!!

Busy day: Logan's Thanksgiving this morning followed by lunch at Briohny's. Then Deb and I drove to Canberra for the ACT Long tomorrow. Managed to get a run in after we arrived: from Telopea Park up to Kings Bridge then around and over Commonwealth Bridge and back to the start. Tweaked my lower back as I was carrying gear up to our motel room but didn't seem to effect my running. Hopefully OK tomorrow.

Didn't have much time so just a short ride after work before picking #1 grandson for a sleepover!

Easy few laps of Rocky Hill, just to get the legs moving again.
