Short run to and from Sabine Falls in the Otways. Bloody slippery on the way down and bloody steep on the way back. Nice run, and I had planned to do something in the afternoon as well, but got fed up with the crowds in and around Lorne.

Short run in the dark after arriving at Big Hill, above Lorne. Run consisted of a run down a fire trail, and then back up. Thought it was going to be a bit tough, but it flattened out a bit after a while, making for a pleasent run, albeit with no view.

Headed out through the bush trying to stay out of the wind. Rode up to Slatey Creek along the Great Dividing Trail, and then back along some of the more major tracks. Nice ride except for the part along the dry ditch which had been burnt by DSE, causing a large number of trees to fall over the track, and burn out about 3 foot-bridges.

Quick run after the MTB event to collect 6 of the controls. Nice and cool out. Courses from the morning looked good. Shame I wasn't able to race.

C • Day 5 2

Pretty scrappy to the first few controls, but seemed to be running a little better than yesterday. Lost a lot of time in the loops around 10, 11, 12 and 13. Blew a massive amount of time on 15, and really could not be stuffed after that. Confirmed the fact that I cannot orienteer in granite.
