TRX suspension 30:00 [3]

And one chin up only about an inch short. The other wide arm attempts were well short. First of the narrow grips was spot on tho :-)

paddle (cut run) 1:07:04 [3] 12.45 km (5:23 / km)
shoes: Swordfish

BIG swell today! It took me a while to get comfortable before I really started going after waves. At one point seven monsters in a row rolled through, too big for me to feel like I wanted to catch them. I thought they were never going to stop.

21-22kt SSW at Garden Island

bike ride (commute) 10:00 [3] 3.0 km (3:20 / km)
shoes: Rocket

paddle (Ash ocean training) 1:00:00 [3] 8.0 km (7:30 / km)
shoes: Swordfish

1st of Ash's Thursday training sessions, and probably my last. Too many people and too many of them with a disturbing inability to control their boats.

One guy even told me to 'go forward, go forward' as I was stationary and he paddled towards me! He t-boned me and there was a crunch but I can't see any damage. However the same guy hit Raf and put a 6" split in the seam of his ski. No 'sorry' on either occasion.

I did learn that I work hard at the wrong times, I need to wait until I feel the back of the boat pick up. Something to work on - not so easy when you're in messy W winds and trying not to have a collision with one of the other 18 people out there.
C • did Ash? 2

paddle (H Island) 1:29:34 [3] 13.7 km (6:32 / km)

Slow despite not much wind, but then I wasn't really pushing hard. Sticky this morning!

shoes: Rocket

bike ride (to home) 16:56 [3] 5.2 km (3:15 / km)
shoes: Rocket

Finished the workshop at 2pm and then procrastinated heading home until about 4:30. Still flippin' hot! Forgot to start the GPS until I was 300m from where I started.

yoga 30:00 [3]

learning to run (beach) 13:43 [3] 2.01 km (6:49 / km)
ahr:125 max:139

7:08, rest, 6:31

Sinking into the sand today - last week's storm has made some changes to the beach, with lots of little pools covering the hard-packed sand.

bike ride (commute) 10:00 [3] 2.5 km (4:00 / km)
shoes: Rocket

TRX suspension 30:00 [3]

Need to get stronger!

Also total failure at chin ups, managed NQ1 x 3, both wide and narrow grips. Yikes!
