Bike (northern you yangs) 50:00 [4]
pretty great.
nice sunny weather.
I WISH I'd brought a camera. the photos would have put a stop to those nay-sayers who claim the you yangs is unfit for orienteering (I'm looking at you neil and blair). I didn't ride through a single section of terrain that could have been considered less than complex.
The new tracks have opened up some pretty amazing forest. I spent the time riding around the moderate tracks in the lake basin and took a few difficult sections.
The terrain alternates between erosion and granite.
This needs to get mapped soon.
had to cut the ride short because 40 mins in I went to grab my drink bottle and found that I had lost it somewhere along the way, and I was already feeling dehydrated. RIP

Bike warm up/down 15:00 [2]
got swooped by a wattle bird for the first time. it followed me for about 100m then I had to stop to cross the road and it just kept swooping me. I was wearing a helmet so was lightly agitating.
would have knocked it out of the air if it wasn't for my immense benevolent fuzzy golden love-filled heart.
have tafe in croydon all week. predict not much training I am afraid.

Run race (Newport Lakes) 45:00 [4] * 10.0 km (4:30 / km)
shoes: Mizuno flats
my route
bad route choice!!!
felt really good for the first half. nice strides.
started to lose rhythm just after 5 running into the wind. saw Tony Bird on the way to 9. how could I lose it from there? ( he had headed out to 12 after 2?)
lost all pace picking up the last four, and some bad route choices.
beaten by Tony and SCHEPISI. and Brian A took a similar circuit to me but had better route choice through the clusters, which was frustrating because I kept passing him.
schepisi's route was under 9km, the advertised route was 9.5km. I guessed mine was 10km.

Bike (hardman) 50:00 [4] 15.0 km (3:20 / km)
woken this morning by a howling wind. by 3pm the wind hadn't died down so I decided I would have to just grin and bare it.
absolutely flew on the way out. bad sign
spent the last 5km riding directly in to the 50-60kmph wind and rain.
now my face is numb.

core 34:00 [3]
copped out. was going to go for a long intervals session today. I feel a bit guilty, but this is the first time I haven't ran to program since I started it. so I guess it is OK.
Prof. Stuart gave me a lecture on the downfalls of my training program. I didn't realise how blatantly effective his is.
