Golden Sandshoe at Mandurang. Not really on form today. The route I chose (which changed about 3 times during the run) had more dog-legs than a team of sleddogs. Didnt quite get all of the controls, and didn't get back in time either.

Very easy run after work. Legs still very tight from Sunday.

Orient Show race 1. After not training all week due to a cold, wasn't sure how I would back up for 3 races. Supprised I was able to stick at the front for the first loop, and was obviously running faster than my brain, as I managed to get 3 others to punch the wrong 4th control. Lost a bit of time at 5 and 6, but not as much as some others.

Orient Show race 2. Completely stuffed this one. Very slow out of the start, then started to stuff up control badly towards the end of the first loop. Things got even worse in the second loop.

Orient Show race 3. Expected to be even further off the pace in this one, given my difficulties in the second race. Stared off alright, then lost some time on the way to the second lot of butterfly loops. Got a bit messy towards the end, but don't think I lost as much time as I did early on.

Suprised to be able to still run at the end, but the cold didn't seem to be as bad as I was expecting.

Collecting controls after the event.
