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 (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).

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.

Cruisy lap of Patterson River and the canals with Rob.
