| picked up bike from Jenny's at last and rode into the City to interval training with Suz, Simon and Vanessa. Had no idea how to get there but ended up following a bus route...was a little cautious estecially when i got to a sign saying Port Adelaide exit! All in all it was good to finally retrieve my bike and end the procrastination in picking it up...something i'm very good at! |

| Rogaine 8:00:00 [2] | |
| |
| Went on the 8 hr Rogaine with Zara. Had a pretty good time although the hills were challenging at times! I had a light load which made things easier (Zara offered to be chief carrier) and navigating went fairly well. Slightly overestimated distances and ended up with about 10km left with only 90mins to go. Ran hard along a fairly indistinct part of the Hysen Trail and was glad to see the lights of the hash house with 9 mins to spare! Ended up with 1090 points which put us in 1st open women and 2nd overall. |

Sunday Aug 19 |
| orienteering race (Club Relays) 59:00 [4] **** 6.6 km (8:56 / km) | |
| spiked:20/34c slept:8.0 shoes: Adidas |
| Club relays involved 2 legs for each person of 3.3km. Was competing in W20 with Laura and ended up victorious. Legs were sore after long run on Saturday and abundance of stairs did not help much (there were four flights to go up on the spectator leg control alone!).The array of buildings and corridors led to lots of variation in route choice. Made up 5 mins on other second runners on both legs which was good. |

| Went on long run from Suzanne and Tyson's into Belair National Park and back. First part was really steep but the way back was downhill. Legs felt good on the return (even felt as though I could have gone further). Found a nice mudslide near Pony Ridge road and Vanessa decided to give it a try! |
