MTB hills (trails) 58:10 14.06 km (14.5 kph) +283m
ahr:123 max:153 rhr:60 slept:7.9 weight:66.5kg shoes: Giant XTC Adv 29er 2 (grey)
North Berowra trails (CW): Ridgeview > Turner loops > Turner-Woodcourt-Lonsdale-Cliffview > Alan-Warrego > Warrina-Mary Wall. A big sluggish today. Probably because I was on my feet for over 6 hours yesterday. Some maps indicated that there might be an MTB-accessible loop at the W end of Alston Drive but it was a rough walking track at best. 17°C. TE 2.2.

NSW XC Relays, North Ryde Common. 9.30am-5pm. 17°C.
Turned out to be a stunning winter's day. Added a few more witches' hats to make the course route more clear in places. Today's races: 4 x 2 x 1.5km (1) and 4 x 2 x 2km (3). One instance of possible illegal pacing reported by three umpires. The athlete was given a warning to be stationary when giving encouragement to teammates.

NSW XC Relays, North Ryde Common. 12.30-1.45pm. Light rain. 13°C.
Helped Dave (referee) & John (technical) put out the red and white flags to mark the running corridor for Saturday's races. The main 1.5km course is a right-angled triangle that starts with a long uphill run to the 90° turn, a traverse along the top, and then a longer downhill run along the hypotenuse. For the 2km course there is 250m detour down the hill and back again from the short side of the triangle at the top of the slope. There a couple of muddy sections when the course crosses a drainage ditch. These crossings should get nicely chopped up by the time the last race happens and provide some interesting running line choices.

ahr:133 max:156 rhr:71 slept:6.75 weight:66kg shoes: Salomon Speedcross4 GTX (blue)
Sams Creek loop (CW: run-hike-run). Reverse of the 25/4/21 course. Descended Sams Creek track from the Ti-Tree trail (0.67km, -152m). Then up the other side to the Berkeley trail (0.64km, +143m) and back home. Much better traction this time with the Speedcross. Pity the natural circuit doesn't stretch to 5km. 18°C. TE 2.7.
