A long run on mt tennent and honeysuckle with lizzie. The weather in canberra didn't look too promising when we left, but was better once we got to namadgi. We ran a robw classic route; the fire trail up mt tennent, which we took fairly easily then had a gel stop at the top. Then it was down and onto the alpine trail through to bushford flat, where we hammered the downhill a bit. Next it was up to the boroomba rocks car park and another quick food stop. Running to honeysuckle creek it got a bit muddy, the goretex shoes did their job though and my feet stayed dry. We finished down the overgrown track back to the bottom of tennent where we were still going fairly quickly on the downhill, the last bit needed a bit of concentration to keep an eye on the track while avoiding all the bushes and trees. As we'd started at tennent there was the little hill at the end to get back to the car. Felt a lot better running this than when I ran it with acejase and robw earlier this year, good morning's work.

Got back from namadgi just in time for the afternoon mudder training, run up mt painter for some pull-ups on the trig point then down to cook for some more strength exercises. My legs complained a bit at the start but were ok once they warmed up a bit.
