Running (ToRace) 29:05 5.36 km (5:25 / km) +118m 4:53 / km
ahr:144 max:159 shoes: Gt2000 Black
Orienteering race (Mosman urban score) 44:38 ** 8.64 km (5:10 / km) +251m 4:31 / km
ahr:167 max:178 shoes: Gt2000 Black
Started ok and generally had the right idea, looping southwest and leaving the closest east for if I had time at the end.
Ran right past one 20pointer just didn't see it, and made a bad decision to miss another 20 which was 60m away (I thought id come back that way)
Overall not bad, but could be improved by committing to getting every control (lower penalties mean it's worth being late. I was early), and getting a bit more intuitive with contour lines. Happy enough.
Rules here are a bit different... You are allowed to look at the map beforehand, so probably could have planned a little better. Also, it's not really beneficial to skip the single digits, as is the case in London street-o.

Cycling 3:49:04 79.55 km (20.8 kph) +974m
ahr:131 max:167 shoes: Willier Izoard
Met Les (from work) in centennial park and rode east to south head, then south past the beaches to botany. I've never been to port botany before, and it was surprisingly nice!
Rode at Les's pace, which was pretty relaxed with a couple of moderate efforts on the hills when i knew where to go.
Very undulating, will be a good regular route when perfected... maybe even a before-work ride if we live in surry hills.
Route ok, need to get some backstreets from newtown to dulwich hill sorted.

TrailRunning long 2:13:39 *** 20.02 km (6:41 / km) +711m 5:40 / km
ahr:158 max:218 shoes: Salomon SpeedCross
Very nice out. Struggled with the terrain a lot (need to get my trail legs in) and struggled with the pace these boys go at. Think i would have been lagging on the pace a lot more had i been out there on my own.
Pretty shattered at the end, but perked up wit some food in me.
Fantastic icypole... fantastic.

A bit of right ankle-spur trouble has been steadily building up since NYC similar to last year pre-valencia mara. may need to sort out some ice-ing for recoveries.

Running (HFW) 50:44 [3] 10.63 km (4:46 / km) +161m 4:26 / km
shoes: Gt2000 Black
He's pretty keen to get on the bike and show me around, and was very re-assuring that there is good riding to be had. Ran home from the pub.
As far as the run goes, it was easier than yesterday (it was cooler), but still felt like very very hard going.
Its as if i feel noticeably heavier (i've put on a kg or 2 in NYC), and technique feels very sloppy.
