Ran the first 20 minutes hard from Arataki, down Beverige track, along exhibition dr until I met Carole coming the other way (she'd driven to the Titirangi end).
Then with C back to jacobsen's depot and then back to the car at the end of exhibition dr with a few hard sections thrown in
Sore and tired - back rather tight - after 5.5 hours staining deck in the hot sun. And only did half of it. And it needs two coats. Gonna have to do it faster...
From home, through tracks, finishing on road down to kumeu for swim, spa (had got a bit cool), swim (had got way too hot), beer and curry
