Bilbys ride. We did an out and back to lake george via the old federal highway avoiding the ute muster at sutton which didn't seem likely to be cycle-friendly. Had a chat with phil walker before he got on the front and lifted the pace a bit higher than the rest of the group could manage. Was a bit chilly when the sun wasn't out. Very long coffee after as the slow group turned up just as we were about to leave, then half an hour later the viking arrived after riding the banks of lake george in a nasty headwind.

Must be quite a while since I've been swimming, so this was quite hard on my arms. Made it to the end of the set without drowning which was a bonus.

Must be the start of winter with WNT (wednesday night training) kicking off with a group run from sebba's along with beth, sanders, lizzie, grantm, georgie and mace. Fire trails round ainslie then a bit along the lakeside in commonwealth park.
Sebba and beth set the benchmark for the post run soup with a great minestrone and olive bread. Top organising by seb mean that there is already a schedule for WNTs for the next two months.

Just did the short set slowly with aaron who was recovering from jindabyne

Usual stuff and a longish warm-down with nick after

Still in the 6ft recovery fortnight, so today was another rest day.

After a week of doing nothing much it was good to get out running again. The cockies there today were grantm, marymac, heffer, sanders, lizzie, BA, ALJ and dreaded. We headed along the bottom of majura then up the edge of the bush to the saddle beyond the summit (this was full of spiders) then up the road to the top. It was drizzling so I was quite wet by the time we got up to the summit. Then down the zigzag track and across the shortcut to the saddle, felt like i was going pretty well down here and legs were holding up well. Then over HH and up the TT with lizzie, sanders and grantm. We headed up to the top of ainslie for a drink then back down the east side of ainslie and round the side of HH. Fairly happy with recovery from 6FT so far, was feeling a bit tight in my calves down the road off ainslie. And good to see that scotty and sanders were recovering well too.
Afterwards we went to wilburs which passed without incident, we ordered three sleepers even though they aren't on the menu any more.
