| If I could just view the glass as half full I would say to myself that I did a pretty reasonable job in a demanding area on 16 controls, and that I should take heart from that. But the glass is half empty got me during whatever it was that I was trying to do to-day. The perfect combination - no ability, deteriorating eyes, rain (wet glasses), and no sunlight for reading - if only I could accept that I am not improving, abandon that absurd prospect, and stop ruining physical activity by putting a map in my hand. Experienced a lot of crushing feelings at times to-day. 'Kahli's Rocks' 3, me 1. This map has an impressive destruction rate of 75%!! |

| Great afternoon around Ashtonfield, but I never really felt comfortable. Left knee and right calf not happy, but I persevered and got the job done - though very slowly at times!! Really looking forward to the challenge of SL 6 / 7 in Orange this weekend - just hope the body is too. Good luck to those competing in the WOC trials / NOL events down in Tassie this weekend. |

| 'Jimboghetti' session at Walka Water Works with Joshwa. Felt pretty good, and no real indication of any side effects from Saturday's effort. Enjoyed the challenge yet again. Walka is a great place to train. |
