New TT bike! Will need to spend some time on the position. Seat height could be a bit lower, and might need to get some longer bars, maybe some risers for the rests... but a lot better than i expected!

Mosman Sprint Really failed this one. missed a track on the way to 2 and lost over a minute. Then lost time at others, 12 from missing a very rough path. Finished it off with the classic not punching the last control, so MP result (although i was 3 minutes down anyway.)
Looking at splits, I would have scored best split for 5,6,7,8,10, and 14, but with the two errors costing about 1.5 mins each.

"Sport nutritionists agree that rapid loss of body mass compromises the body’s ability to repair itself during intense training. Rapid reduction in body mass occurs as a result of fluid and/or substrate loss, both of which affect recovery and performance. An acute body mass loss of 2% or greater can adversely affect cognitive and physical performance."
Still feel like i should stick it out at this weight for now...

Energy levels weren't solved overnight, resulting in the least successful long-run in recent memory.
Had intentions of doing about 30k, 20k at MRP, but quickly realised there was no way i was putting any effort into this one. Got to the bay and decided to skip the lap, but still ended up stopping and walking in several sections, then skipped the blackwattle lap as well. In the end did half the distance intended at about half the speed. Max HR 135!
Not sure the cause. Haven't been eating or sleeping too bad, haven't been drinking too much or training too much. Maybe the mugginess got to me, maybe it was because i tried listening to music while running... maybe a bit of sickness creeping in, maybe its from weight loss, or the body trying to recover from the crash.
Either way, gonna have a quiet weekend and see if i can get a quality long session in early next week. Don't think it's anything to worry about

Cremorne SSS Made a big error coming out of a park early on, (distracted by James) and losing about 3 minutes, then missed a sidepath because I was distracted by a baby possum. Later on, just didn't really have the legs for the hills. Skipped one on the way back (probably shouldn't have) and came in late, so not the best result.
Leg felt ok with a calf-sleeve on for compression, except on the downhills, where i just had to take it a bit easy.

Swimrun brick. 3 sets of 3k run in minimals, 500m poolswim in paddles, transitions as quick as possible (about 1:30 to outside the pool gate) Legs felt fine out of the water, and getting used to prolonged paddle swimming. Should feel better in normal running shoes. Crash damage aching a bit on downhills.
