Gotta love wiggle less than 1/2 the price of what I would've paid in Oz... and free shipping :)

Paddled upstream from the footbridge to as far as I could paddle, to almost Royal st, I could see the cars crossing the bridge but the last bit was fairly wooded without a nice line through.

Lovely day for a paddle.

Adventure Racing (KillaCanning) 3:30:30 [4] 46.2 km (4:33 / km)

Boundless Metro Event # 1

Street Orienteering
Followed the pack out to #1 to start with, decided not to worry about the 3 extra cp's further out because I didn't think I'd make the time back. Continued on got 2, 3 and 4 then got extra cp 7 and the 5 and 6 before back to TA1. Got in to TA1 in a reasonable position.

Paddle
Paddled down to Salter Point first, in hindsight probably the wrong way but you get that, paddled ok, struggled a fair bit into the wind and waves but nothing terrible. Nice to get to the top and start heading back, arms were definitely grateful that the last bit was with the wind instead of into it.

Mt Bike
Transition was ok decided to leave my shoes on as I couldn't be bothered changing them. Got the first one ok, the second had trouble finding the 'giant something' but went with large dragonfly anyway, glad I didn't spend more time there looking, got the next few ok then into TA2.

Run (Aerial Photo)
Headed north out of the oval to first cp then decided to get the next extra cp but cut the one right at the top out, went to the mudfest track junction one next which I thought might be a bit iffy but was ok, then picked up the compulsory ones, saw a fair few people but hard to gauge how I was going a I hadn't picked up many optionals.

Mt Bike
Head out across the oval back to the first ride checkpoint, got overtaken by tRicky who had had to change shoes in transition, saw what looked like Lesa Muir but then dropped my pen and had to go back and get it and then didn't see her again, turns out it was actually a guy in a blue shirt who I later eventually caught. tRicky went past but got the first checkpoint before him then he overtook me again on the way to the next one but I got it sooner this happened for a while longer until I managed to get away but he caught up again at the last control and passed me again before the finish.

Distance is a bit of a guess, GPS had 41.36km but not including the first Street O.

Am definitely getting better at deciding which checkpoints are worth getting for me and making better decisions, definitely helped that I am quite familiar with the area :). Managed to (just) beat Andre again.

Overall was a good fun event, thanks Boundless people!

Food:
1 x lemon-lime shoz
1 x wild bean shotz

10 AM

Paddling 1:21:46 [3] 10.12 km (8:05 / km)

Paddled downstream from the footbridge to Riverton bridge and back. Glad I waited until the sun was out because it was really nice out on the river. Saw a guy 'paddling'the kind of boat I need - had pedals instead of a paddle, he was moving at a reasonable speed too. Water was flowing up stream from the ocean over kent st weir which was a bit weird.

Mt Biking (Langford Park) 1:39:06 [3] 22.16 km (4:28 / km)
shoes: Stumpy FCC

So nice to go riding with mud and puddles instead of dust and boggy gravel for once. Finally know the trails out here well enough to do a 20km ish ride without riding the same trails over and over. Definitely a much better place to ride when its wet and you're not going around in circles.

Was going to ride home the long way but left work later than planned and it was already dark and yucky so I just took the short way home.

Note
(rest day)

Site

Usually after getting up Super early to go to site and getting home late I am absolutely buggered but today I was on a later flight, had breakfast at Qantas lounge, slept on plane on the way there, had a cruisy day, caught the early flight home (slept again) and got home before 6.30pm so actually had energy and felt like doing something. Ended up walking the dog, not quite exercise but better than usual.
