Training Log Archive: Vaala

On the tandem to Bower Ave then through the park to Spencerville.

Hilarious MTBO attempt with M on the tandem. Since neither of our mapboards fit on the front handlebars because of the gearing, I had the mapboard on the back. I thought this would make it easier than normal but it's way harder! Try attempting to describe where a green 'passageway' thing is to the person in front steering when only you can see the map but can't see what's coming up and they can't see the map...so #9 was a disaster! But the other ones were okay...mostly!

Back out to the Bower Ave exit via the mtb tracks this time which was quite entertaining then home. Feeling sleepy.

Up and over to the hutch then up the dry creek valley, round the Witch Hill loop then down the valley. Felt a bit ill going up the valley. Not sure if it was my lunch or what but felt okay by the time I got to the top but not good enough to go prancing up Mt Vernon which was sad because it was such a nice afternoon. Singing Phantom songs in my head the whole time (actually, embarrassingly realised I was singing out loud when I was riding over!).

Cruising round the valley loop with M in the dark. Feeling slow and tired today whilst M just seemed to float along!

Quickly after work before getting to wear my Clara dress and going to see the Phantom! Trying to go hard for the middle 20 minutes.

Cruisey Wed night run with Emily and Mike. Took them for a tiki tour of the linking tracks and stuff behind the hospital then up part of the Harry Ell and back down, mostly walking on the way down 'cause of Emily's knees :-(

Feeling tired and the seat is so uncomfortable.
