Mt Biking 42:44 [2] +215m
ahr:140 max:170 shoes: Specilized BG MtBike Shoes
Mt biking at Gardens with Claire and Tim. First time on a bike for Tim in a while and probably not best to take him out at Gardens. Feeling ok but going slowish and stop start, left them to go back and I.....
Mt Biking 31:16 [3] +100m
ahr:159 max:186 shoes: Specilized BG MtBike Shoes
let Tim and Claire go home, and carried on around the mt bike race loop, going reasonably solid, then did half of top half again from 5 crossroads, then up and down the spur before trying to really race back down through the berms which are getting good now with some rain last week, also almost cocked up the log drop, bit too much going into it.

Orienteering race (Relay) 44:59 [5] **** 4.6 km (9:47 / km) +80m 9:00 / km
ahr:186 max:198 shoes: Inov8 RocLite 305
Auck Relays at Muriwai, was hot and bloody tough in the dunes. Messed up the hill in the low vis which I've said before, should be taken off the map because a) its not mapped right and b) it doesn't exist, at least the depression in the clearing has finally been taken off.
Felt generally slow, and right calf was a bit funny running round the last loop, not achilles well probably right at the top, where it joins on, not too bad just felt like it was a hard spot.
Bloody fun format, pity weren't more people there to enjoy it, cheers Soggy and Jager.

Running 51:00 [3] +240m
ahr:158 max:187 shoes: Nike Air Zoom Triax+11
Run with Neil around the farm. Wasn't feeling too good, mainly just bloody unfit. Shoes are definitely not the off road choice.

Note
Bit un-organised really, working on van all day then boys turned up with some beers, so that put the end to any afternoon plans. Need to make a plan now that my legs are feeling a bit more able to handle some regular training.

Mt Biking 1:12:00 [3] +450m
ahr:167 max:200 shoes: Specilized BG MtBike Shoes
Mt bike with Neil, something was wrong as I was feeling really good....
Did the race downhill track and green track to decide which is harder, I was right, green is, then for some unknown reason we went up Andrews track, almost killed me, HR got to 200 and I had to have a lie down at the top but we rode it all. Berms are getting sweeter after the rain, just need more bedding in.

Squash 1:16:00 [4]
ahr:173 max:200 shoes: Asics Rocket
That was much better, 5-3 to me!! Felt way better physically and hitting the ball bit better as well a few more games and I'll have the total feel for the racquet back. Both played pretty good but not the best ever, would have helped if I wasn't sweating like a paedophile in a kindergartens changing room.
Bring it on Neil!

Mt Biking warm up/down 10:00 [3] +90m
ahr:162 max:183 shoes: Specilized BG MtBike Shoes
Mt Biking to start of MTBO.
Mt Biking race (Mt Bike Orienteering) 53:47 [5] ** 10.0 km (11.2 kph) +305m
ahr:177 max:195 shoes: Specilized BG MtBike Shoes
MTBO on Gardens, only did course 2, was only a couple of route choices, which I think I got ok apart from not wanting to go all the way to the bottom then back up to the control which might have been slightly quicker but way more boring, rest were pretty straight forward. Had only run in with shoulder into a tree going down the native gully but stayed on. Legs feeling pretty dead by the end.
Mt Biking warm up/down 4:00 [2]
ahr:150 max:171 shoes: Specilized BG MtBike Shoes
Biking back down, hit our sweet berms, they need some rain and bedding in, almost forgot about the log drop again, it looks a lot higher when on top of a bike.

Running 29:00 [3] 3.4 km (8:32 / km) +125m 7:12 / km
ahr:159 max:184 shoes: Asics Kayano XI
Run with Neil around the farm after a hard days work in a day that felt like it belonged more in the middle of Feb than Nov (and I have the sunburnt legs to prove it)
Felt ok running considering I was naffed after we finished up racking, just went up the spur, behind cabin, swamp and round to under house

Mt at Gardens with Neil and Marquita, pretty poked after a days working building tracks and chopping thistles. Was going pretty slow and it was the first time on the mt bike in over 7 months.

Squash 50:00 [4]
ahr:169 max:194 shoes: Asics Rocket
Squash with Andrew, man this was just a total spanking, couldn't get close to anything or play any decent shots, might have something to do with either being totally unfit or hungover?? Glad I won the last game only because we had to use a red dot as 2 other balls popped, otherwise it would have been a drowtral.

Mt Biking 8:00 [1]
slept:0.0 shoes: Specilized BG MtBike Shoes
Went for a ride down to the petrol station on Claires bike to get some goodies at 4:30 in the morning, need a break from writing my report and was quite fun on her sofa.

Note
Just sat my last ever under-grad exam, all that is left is my project report, journal article and presentation, dont expect to sleep much in the next couple of days. Had F&P in looking at my project today and apparently there is going to be some big-wig there for my presentation on Thursday since I'm using a motor from one of their washing machines to do something apparently no one else in the world has done, find that hard to believe esp since its just basic motor control.

Running 32:00 [3] 4.5 km (7:07 / km) +130m 6:13 / km
ahr:160 max:190 shoes: Nike Air Zoom Triax+11
Another run at Long Bay with Claire, she has got new shoes and also seen someone who has told her to run hard not jog for a while to fix some problems, so she started hard and died. Started out at the other end so had a bit running through the nice grass, lots of hot chicks sunbathing in the awesome sun, stopped and stretched a couple of times during run while waiting for Claire. Felt ok maybe not the best thing to have done, I should take it easy, Claire can do what ever she wants.

Running 44:00 [3] 5.52 km (7:58 / km) +210m 6:42 / km
ahr:156 max:188 shoes: Nike Air Zoom Triax+11
Went for a run at Long Bay in the awesome afternoon, had to get out after spending the last 4 days at uni until after mid-night (yes Sat and Sun night). Quite a nice track, didn't make it to the end but cant have been far off. Achilles and calves felt ok, the rest of the body felt like a lead sinker.
