ACT Champs at the Gib. Was really fun, I enjoyed it much more than last year! Was hard to run so I was jogging/walking but kept pushing on even after a bit of a low patch at number 11 (I didn't really enjoying scrambling down a steep hill there!) but it was fun. Beautiful weather and fun to be out orienteering. I was really happy with my navigation and even though I lost a bit of time on some controls they weren't really too bad (didn't count as mistakes in my book). Thanks for the courses, Jase!

Really fun mountain bike ride around the classic black mtn loop (track was nicely graded and managed to ride all the way up the super steep hill, yay!) then I felt like a bit of an adventure so after I rode through Bruce ridge I started following the centenary trail. I lost the signs through the ais which was a bit annoying but after a couple of double backs and checking the map I got back on track and ride through gossan hill, around lake g and headed towards gunghalin, then turned onto the bike path through kaleen and home via north lyneham ridge and Bruce ridge. I was buggared by the end!

Swam 22 laps this arvo after a swim with the girls.

Ints around back of aranda bushland. 5 x 3' (1' jog) then 4 x 30" (1' walk). Met al but she didn't do the ints as not feeling well - normally I try to keep up with her so I probably didn't go as hard today without her to chase! I did enjoy it though and felt ok, just a bit leg tired.

Swam 20 laps

Rode to and from work

Weights at the gym

Body balance class. Really nice today!

Black mtn run up. Was hard work and I was disappointed in how slow I was despite feeling like I was going as hard as could. I'm not getting any younger I guess! Felt good to have done it but it was really tough.
