 | Mountain biking 1:40:00 [3]19 km (5:16 / km) | |
| (sick) |
| Due to a mistake concerning the date of the NSW mtbo champs, we happened to have our bikes with us in Canberra, so we stopped in overnight and went out to Sparrow Hill for a ride today. hadn't ridden there since an 8 hour race a couple of years ago, and the tracks were fantastic. freezing in the forest though which plus lack of warm layers for me caused us to bail earlier, but my hands and feet were numb the whole time, and i was sick of that after being cold for 2 weeks now. so we left early and drove back home to newcastle, where i broke a sweat bringing stuff inside because it was so warm here.
oh and my cold worsened again this morning, really felt miserable which may have contributed to bailing as well. |

| i logged everything in 1 go, so there may be some stuff missing that i couldn't remember. but oh well |

| Back to the resort for the last day, and the weather was shocking. i was cold and my face was numb from being blasted by snow and wind. legs hurting a little thanks to yarrandoo, a black run that was a bit bumpy. did a longer day but had a lot more breaks inside to escape the weather. but skied most of the resort and a lot of the runs to maximise lift ticket. almost over sickness, still feel a bit woozy but my body cant wait to escape the cold weather, havent had anything above about 7 for almost 2 weeks now. |

| Hiked up from Dead Horse Gap to Leather Barrel Creek. Wind was bad and so was cold, so we dropped into bogong creek for a ski and lunch, before bailing altogether due to unpleasantness. snow was nice though. still sick but getting better |

| (sick) (rest day) |
| we were going to hike out to Schlink hut today and camp out for 2 nights but my cold worsened and my body was really sore and tired. so we had a rest day in which we slept in, read a book and drove out the Alpine way to Tom Groggin, where we stood on the Murray and threw rocks at Victoria |

| Hiked from Guthega up two thirds of mount Twynam, poor visilbility forced us to not go to the top. found a nice slope to repeat ski, snow was really nice. really physically exhausted now from repeat exercise, reached endurance limit i think. also coming down with a cold. |
