Ride 3:20:00 [4] 79.0 km (2:32 / km)
slept:8.0 shoes: Crusty Merida
Rode the MTB to Port Melbourne with Dave to have a 'Greatest Neenish Tart' EVER. It's cheaper than driving there. Rode bike tracks to Mordialloc then Beach Road to Port Melbourne. Strong head wind city bound but it was well worth it. Rode on the front all the way and pushed reasonably hard. Legs can feel it now.

Ride (Hills) 4:20:00 [3] 102.0 km (2:33 / km)
slept:6.0 shoes: Giant TCR One (road)
Road ride in the Dandenongs with Dave, Josh and Wal. Started up the One in Twenty, down The Wall, through The Patch, up to Emerald for a jam donut stop at the market, then down and back up (unbelievably steep ... thought I was going to have to walk) to Gembrook, then back through Emerald, Olinda, up The Wall, through Sassafrass and back down the One in Twenty. Good to get over 100 kms on the road in the hills. Felt better as the morning went on.

Rode bike tracks to Mordialloc, jumped on the road to Black Rock, then onto the Beach Road bike tracks to Brighton Baths - and back. Head wind on the way out again. Came back 20 minutes faster than on the way out ... even managed to ride in my top gear for a couple of kms!!!

Ride (Bike tracks) 1:50:00 [3]
slept:8.0 shoes: Crusty Merida
Rode bike tracks with Dave to Josh's where we'd left the car yeasterday. It was a very cold start to the morning until the fog lifted and the head wind set in. Pigged out on party food for Kirra's birthday.

Run (Hills) 6:10:00 [3] +1384m
slept:7.0 shoes: Brooks Adrenalin ASR
Run in the Dandenongs with Dave, Josh and Wal. Started at Josh's place, headed up Old Coach Rd, up Deer Hill, across the Hurdy Gurdy, up Fenceline Tk all the way to the top (parallel with the Scar) down Ch 10 Tk to the road, then dropped into Olinda for a choc jam donut for breaky. Along the side of the road to Sassafrass, then down the Sassafrass Creek Trail, up to Kallista, across to Grant's Picnic Area then down to Belgrave. Ran the bike track to Upper Gully then did the normal riding loop through Upper Gully. Back to the 1000 stairs, up them, then down Tyson and Outlook Tks to the top of Josh's house for a quick (30 mins!) transition to the bikes. Ran all bar the un-runnable up hills. Felt really good for it all - around 43 kms.
Ride (Bike tracks) 1:50:00 [3]
shoes: Crusty Merida
Rode bike tracks home from Josh's place. Felt strong considering the big morning. Good to loosen the legs after the run also.

Ride (MTB) 2:35:00 [3]
slept:10.5 shoes: Crusty Merida
Rode the bike trails to Mordialloc, then the Beach Road bike tracks into Brighton Baths and back. Not a good day weather wise with an icy sea breeze blowing, and plenty of rain to go with it (but at least it kept all the kiddies off my bike paths!). Felt good apart from the cold.
Thursday Jul 12, 2007 #

Took the borrowed dogs for an hour+ walk. Could have gone for a paddle but didn't want to get the hands cold! Fog didn't lift until after midday today.
Monday Jul 9, 2007 #
Run 1:10:00 [3]
slept:7.0 shoes: Brooks Adrenalin
Ran two laps of Patterson River from back gate to gate. Took a head torch expecting to need it for the last half of the second lap ... hadn't realised the days had got long enough and never turned it on (it did look good though). Felt reasonably good, especially on the second lap, bar slightly tight calves.

Ride (Bike tracks) 3:30:00 [3]
slept:9.0 shoes: Crusty Merida
On the MTBs with Dave and Wal. Rode bike tracks through Mordialloc, then the beach trails to just prior to Ricketts Point. Jumped on the road with the roadies, and after making a few over-takes jumped on the wheels of two for a few kms. They lifted the pressure up each rise whilst slyly checking to see if they had enough distance on us to drop us. No such luck. Jumped back onto the bike path coming into St Kilda and rode them into the turn around point where the Spirit of Tasmania was parked at Port Melbourne. Headed back on the bike paths into a reasonably strong wind (apparently ... I was cruising on Big Dave's wheel). Jumped back on the road just after Sandringham until Black Rock where we stopped for Lattes and Hot Chocolates. Back to Mordialloc on the road and onto the sticky bike paths back to Patto. Legs felt normal bar some slight tightness in the right hamstring. Should probably stretch at some point (having neglected to since Geo).

Run (Hills) 4:45:00 [3] +1124m
slept:6.0 shoes: Asics
Run (walked the steep uphills) in the Dandenongs with Dave, Josh and Wal. Began at Josh's, ran to The Basin, the Fenceline Tk, up the Scar, to Olinda Bakery (picked up a jam donut for breakfast). Over to the Sassafrass Creek Trail, up to Kallista, through Sherbrook, over some horse paddocks, up and around One Tree Hill via Tysons Track and then dropped back into Josh's place. Felt comfortable for all bar a couple of minutes after climbing the Scar. I think I was suffering from the lack of anything for breakfast (due to not crawling out of bed till after our planned leaving time).

Run 35:00 [3]
slept:6.0 shoes: Brooks Adrenalin
Phew, I've had a few days off from a big three weeks and I'm ready to go again! Ran a cruisy lap of Patterson River plus an extra short loop whilst waiting for Dave's GPS to find a satellite or two. Ran with Dave and a head torch. Wore the 'Magic Pant' for the first time ever running and liked them.

slept:11.0 shoes: K1
Cruisy lap of Patterson River and the canals with Rob.

Ride race (Chase the Sun 5 Hr Enduro) 5:21:00 [4]
slept:8.0 shoes: Giant XTC Team
Raced solo. Good mix of single track and fire trails through Lysterfield (thankfully very little of the Commonwealth Games track). Would have been better if the rain had stayed away in the previous couple of days as it made the trails slippery and sticky, good strength training though. Completed 7 laps of the 12 km course finishing 4th in women's solo. Lapped between 45 minutes and 47 minutes. Felt the same (reasonably good but not awesome) from the 20 minute mark to the finish.
