shoes: Asics GEL 2000 aqua

Awesome run with Al, Kathie and Shannon up the top at thredbo. Started from top of chairlift and followed snow poles in the wind, rain and cloud to the snowy river, up to rawsons pass, then did the main range loop back to snow poles, then back to chairlift. It cleared up on Kosciuszko and it was great, not sunny but had really good views. It was long and hard but I felt ok and was really happy to be able to make that distance! Really fun.

Thursday Jan 11, 2018 #

Cycling 25:00 [3]

Al and I caught chairlift up with bikes and rode the flow trail - can’t say I enjoyed it!! It was pretty tricky and I got off lots and had sore arms from holding breaks whole way, but I was glad to have done it! Very challenging

Cycling 55:00 [3]

2nd ride was much more fun - this time we rode the all mountain trail down and did Friday flat loop at bottom. It was tricky and I still got off a bit but it was much more fun and less steep than the flowtrail.

Note

Have a sore throat. Lots of gargling today to get better for tomorrow

Ran down the Thredbo Valley Trail with Kathie, Al and Shannon. It was part of runners week - event where you ran for 60 mins so we did 30 mins out then turned back. It was a bit more up hill on return and I was really tired - struggled the last 10 mins. Legs still so weary from Crackenback!
