Victorian State Series Race 3- Middle Gully Macedon
I went out early to check the course. Felt like I was really struggling physically especially on the hills. Am I really that out of shape? Didn't really miss much, but at 14 I got to the circle and found Matt Doyle already walking around looking for the control. I quickly found a pink tag and assumed it had not be placed in the forest. Ran back to the finish but the course setter had already been told. Apparently the course setter and controller went out and put the control in the wrong spot after not finding the original tape. oops.
According to the splits I was a bit in front of Brody at 13, but behind Keely (who then blew 15mins on the 2nd last). Probably not running as badly as it seemed at the time.

Orienteering 16:01 [3] 1.63 km (9:50 / km) +32m 8:57 / km
ahr:178 max:189 shoes: Inov-8 Oroc 280

Southern Cross Sprint race set by Aislinn and Roch.
After picking a few controls I felt very tired and wasn't going to race. But couldn't say no. Good head to head with Brody and Todd Neve. I lead most of the first loop. But got passed when I was stuck in some green in the 2nd loop. Brody had a good lead into the final loop but badly overran the first control in the gully. I had a big grin as I continued but slowed too much and was a bit off line and Todd who I'd forgotten about passed me. I didn't put up much of a sprint and let Todd run away, but we were both well beaten by Matt Doyle.

Road Cycling 2:31:27 [3] 62.37 km (2:26 / km) +710m 2:18 / km
ahr:142 max:252 shoes: Cervelo P3

too early (for a saturday) ride with Ezy, Fatrat, Kez, Morten, and Kathryn. From Clifton Hill to Kangaroo Ground and back on a great loop. Lots of hills but none of them very big. Probably as a good a ride as you could do in Melbourne. I had to ride the cervelo TT which was hardly ideal but good practice. Kathryn said she will stick to beach road next time...

Running long 1:45:15 [3] 19.92 km (5:17 / km) +585m 4:36 / km
ahr:145 max:179 shoes: Salomon Speed Cross 3

long run with Morgan from DIS to Darlimurla and back. Managed to stay reasonably dry on a day that had heavy cold showers of rain. This was my longest run in two months and the legs seems to go ok, but the lungs/heart were working pretty hard on the hills.
Though I resigned myself to the fact that I'll be fatter and slower than Lazydave at the WOC trials.

Super morning for a paddle on the pondage. With Hahny so I had one tennis ball on and was working hard the whole way as he pushes the endorfinn quite well.

on the bike after the paddle. Feeling quite good to Mirboo North. Had a quick coffee and apple crumble before leaving as I had to get back to the hospital for a test. Unfortunately I got a few hundred metres down the road just past the brewery when I got T-boned by a car. I saw it coming and time certainly slows down in a situation like that. Very lucky it was quite low speed and somehow I survived relatively unscathed. Same couldn't be said for the Chiru Radium. Now I need to fight with the insurance company to try get a new one and won't have it to race with next weekend.
