Orienteering 45:00 [3]
Great course at Black Mountain - really fun and few control sites I hadn't been to before.

running 25:00 [3]
Run with Ria and Phoebe, I had a huge headache before we started but it went away. Also rained on us and a bit of hail so I was happy to call it quits.

Netball 20:00 [3]
Game was at 9pm and the other team didn't show up so we won by default but luckily there were some guys there that wanted to play a friendly match, otherwise showing up at 9pm for no game would have been annoying.

Paddling 2:00:00 [3]
Virgin Cove - Sataoa Mangroves (heaps of fish, the reef fish go in their to have their babies so there were some really small colourful reef fish) - Samoana Island (for lunch and a quick snorkle) - Virgin Cove.

Paddling 3:00 [3]
I spent all day at a regatta but the races were only 250m (we did that twice because we made the final) and 400m. 250m in a 6 person outrigger takes us about 50seconds (the good teams do 35-40), 400m takes 1.30 which means it took all day for me to do about 10 minutes of exercising which includes paddling to the start line. Music was pumping and they had a great MC and tones of people with their hot dogs. Good to see some of the good teams race too.

gym (spinning) 25:00 [3]
Nina is in NZ, and instructor has been doing every class this week so he was exhausted. That made this class was really lame and pretty much a waste of tala. Better than nothing though.

running 54:00 [3]
shoes: Nike Structure 14's
Early morning run with Cam up the hill - it is much cooler up there than at my house and lots of trees. Everyone says there are also less dogs but I don't think that is true. There are more proper guard dog type dogs up there, my hood just has manky, small because their hungry, Samoan dogs.
gym (boxerise) 1:00:00 [3]
Got some tips on technique today. My plan is still to run rather than fight if someone tries to get me though.

Paddling 50:00 [3]
Palolo and back - low tide but awesome day, water was smooth as. Great visibility out at Palolo so glad I took my googles to get a closer look at the fishes, a few big ones and Josh reckons he saw a reef shark but I am not sure if I believe him.

running (Mt Vaea) 21:42 [3]
shoes: Nike Structure 14's
I think that's it - my running is slowing down and my fastest Mt Vaea time will be my first. Excuses I have for today's time include, huge indian curry lunch, followed by snickers and toast (it's rude not to eat) and maybe hot but it's hot everyday, 30 is the standard temp day and night. The path was dry so not slippery, I'm not sick, it wasn't humid, I had enough water, there were still a few logs but really the path was clear enough. And it will only be downhill from here.

Netball 15:00 [3]
So not in the mood today and I was struggling to catch (more than usual).

XC (G'Day Samoa Fun Run) 21:52 [3]
shoes: Mizuno
5k's around the sea wall - fun, very relaxed though maybe I should have warmed up a little bit.

Intervals 23:00 [3]
shoes: Mizuno
8 x 2minutes with 1 minute recovery with Cam's running group. Moved to Thursday morning because the big G'Day Samoa fun run is on Saturday, funded and run by AusAID of course.

Paddling 15:00 [3]
Short paddle because annoyingly 3 brand new people turned up even though they were asked not to which upset our teams because one boat was being fixed. Samoan's are nice so they got a go anyway.

gym (low impact ) 40:00 [3]
The first half of this class is really annoying. The second half I like.
running (Mt Vaea) 22:54 [3]
shoes: Mizuno
Didnt run a step further than the timed route which goes from the big bamboo to the top. Not really feeling great today but weather a bit cooler so nice to be out. Heaps of mozzies got me.

running (Mt Vaea) 30:00 [3]
shoes: Mizuno
Really slow today - 23.10 up the hill. It has been raining and there is water in the creeks so it it slippery but I also haven't had much water this morning so not feeling awesome, I can also confirm a weekend of boozing and eating whole pigs for breakfast lunch and dinner doesn't make you feel great. I was two minutes behind at my half way point I did manage to pick up the pace in the second half.

Paddling 1:00:00 [3]
Palolo deep and back. I took my snorkel to check out some fish out there but we didn't stay long because it was windy so the boat was getting pushed around a lot and we needed 6 in the boat to control it. Also filled the boat with water. We caught a wave but you need to catch it at the back of the boat not in the middle so when the wave broke, it broke on us and filled the boat with water. We had to flip it to empty it and then get back in, I crunched some coral while doing that which I feel really really guilty about it.

At work at lunch, so many push up...
Netball 28:00 [3]
We won! First win for the team, and Gab, our team captain, couldn't get the grin of his face. He loves to win.
