Training Log Archive: NSW Stinger

with Julian (injured) and his mate Gareth (a good triathlete).

C • Anaconda 2

Right knee/ITB still sore. And left one sore too. Actually think it is a bad bite/sting- very strange.

later

morning run from Bolton Point to Fennell Bay and back

at Thornton. It's been many a year since i did a Newcastle street race, but they haven't changed much. 31 controls, and you have to answer the multiple choice question at each control. I actually think this is a better challenge than looking for the flower pots in Sydney.
Felt pretty slow and wasted some time at a few of them, but not too bad a run. 36points (which was being eyed off by a few ambitious juniors when i left).
NB. My garmin battery ran out after about 5 mins which meant i had to guess my 45mins- and only 19secs late. not bad!

morning paddle on Sydney harbour in single Red 7, with Damon and Fleur. Terrible weather, rainy and windy, but got better as paddle went on.
Damon has quit work, and Fleur got made reduntant last Thursday, so it was strange training together on a weekday.

C • Fleur got made redundant???... 3

easy ride on the Jamis to check it still worked before Friday's aroc race.
