Orienteering race 41:09 [3] 5.9 km (6:58 / km)
Really could not be stuffed today. Made a bad mistake on one of the easiest control on the course. Picked it up a little towards the end, but still felt sluggish.

Run 30:00 [3]
Run out around Nerrina. Pretty windy out, and it started to rain on the way back.
Wednesday Sep 26, 2007 #
Run 16:00 [4]
Some Clara fartlek tonight. Has been a while since I did this session. I will have to do some more in the future. Struggled a bit at the end, but I fell about 30-40 meters short of my best effort.
Run warm up/down 15:00 [2]

Run 48:00 [3]
Fantastic run for a change. Felt like I could have easily kept going, but it was starting to get very dark. Hopefully I will have a few more of these types of runs in the next few weeks.

Riding-MTB race (MTBO) 1:45:00 [4] 31.0 km (3:23 / km)
Hard to get excited about this event, but went along anyway and had a pretty good ride. Made some shocking route choices in the early parts of the course, which involved some very steep hills. The last part was better, but I was getting pretty tired by the end.

Run 40:00 [3]
Just a short one. I think I will got to the MTBO in Creswick tomorrow.

Run 30:00 [3]
No storm tonight, but I was pretty tired after a busy day at work. Went out to the water tanks, and ran through the new subdivision next the freeway. I somehow don't think the area would make a good investment.

Run 35:00 [3]
Up to Black Hill. Spent the second half looking at the large strom aproaching, and hoping that I was going to get back before it started raining and blowing a gale. Made it by about 5 minutes
Monday Sep 17, 2007 #
Run warm up/down 12:40 [2] 2.2 km (5:45 / km)
Run 35:50 [3]
Lake Wendouree extended run. It was a bit different to see the lake with water in it. Got chased by a swan at one stage.

Orienteering 48:23 [4] 7.1 km (6:49 / km)
Went and ran the Eureka challenge course again, to make sure that I would be able to do it quicker second time around (despite how slow I am feeling at the moment). Didn't feel that fast, but was significantly quicker in the first part of the course. The gold mining stuff slowed me down a bit, but even though I was running slower, the splits were quicker, because I was actually navigating, and not just running around in circles. Ended up running about 4 minutes faster this time around, but I had the advantage of knowing where I was going.
Saturday Sep 15, 2007 #
Riding-MTB 1:40:00 [3] 33.24 km (3:01 / km)
Fantastic and sunny out, but not too warm. Out through Nerrina, and through some of the pine forrests. Some big hills out there, but mostly nice smooth tracks.

Run 30:00 [3]
Was pretty tired today after spending the morning in Melboure, and having to work in Ballarat in the afternoon.
There must have been a few stolen cars in Ballarat today, apparently one crashed into a powerpole that they were still fixing at 6:30 tonight, and took out power to abour 3000 homes. I came across another stolen car in the bush not to far away during my run, that was bogged in some very deep mud, with the windscreen smashed, and the headlights still on. The cops that were there seemed pretty talkative.

Orienteering race 57:52 [4] 8.9 km (6:30 / km)
Feeling better today, and there was no coughing today. Started of a bit faster than I intended, but I soon pulled back a lot. Everything is feeling much harder than I should at the moment. No mistakes, but some of the route choices were a bit suspect.

Orienteering race 50:17 [5] 8.7 km (5:47 / km)
Had to do a lot of work early on to catch AJ, but after a slight mistake at number 2 and a coughing fit, he quickly got away again. Managed to get most of the crap out of my lungs by 10, and spent the rest of the course crusing back through the green grass to the finish. A bit pissed of that I wasn't able to make more of a race of it. While AJ would probably have got me on leg speed after 5-6km, I should have been able to hang on for more than 1.5km.

Run 25:00 [3]
Didn't do much tonight. Felt a bit average.
Tuesday Sep 4, 2007 #
Run (Clara fartlek) 16:00 [4]
First time I have done this in a while. Wasn't feeling too good, but made the most of it and got the session done.
Run warm up/down 10:00 [1]
Sunday Sep 2, 2007 #
Run 55:00 [3]
Was feeling a bit bored today, so I went down to Creswick and went for a run around the Lake. Ended up running to Cosgrove Res, and then cutting back through some of the pine forrest. Nice and sunny out, and quite warm, as I left the run pretty late, as I didn't get to the lake until about 1:30.

Riding-MTB 1:10:00 [3] 22.0 km (3:11 / km)
Very nice afternoon. Suffered the first magpie swooping of the season. Not a very viscious one, but a pretty persistent. Found one of the water crossings a bit deeper than I was expecting, and ended up riding home with pretty wet and cold feet.
