| Waitaks run - with mark, jager & greta
Awesome run from Bethells, up the big sand dune, round the lake, up Houghtons track, Smythe ridge track, upper kauri then bak again. What wicked tracks, so nice to run and some good climb. I reckon Houghtons track has gotta be my new fav track in the waitaks, gotta go bak and do that one. |

| (injured) |
| Knee still hurting lots, but i was getting bored not running, so i took a couple of pain killers and went for an easy run along the tamaki river. Knee was painful for the first half hour, but seemed to subside as i kept going. Avoided any hills as this seemed to aggrevate it more. |
