Kayaking (Port Melbourne) 1:06:20 [3] 11.11 km (5:58 / km)

morning paddle with Kathryn (in Double Fenn XT) and Jarad out to Williamstown and back. Pretty windy and some nice waves out there. I didn't like the set up in the XT as much as the Red 7. The stability is probably the same, but the XT would be a bit slower.

Orienteering (National Junior Camp) 40:00 [3] 6.0 km (6:40 / km)
shoes: Teva X1 Stability

Peg Relay for boys and girls

Orienteering race (Bendigo University) 31:08 [4] 6.5 km (4:47 / km) +115m 4:24 / km
shoes: Teva X1 Stability

Another ordinary run and beaten by Kathryn 3-0. Lots 30secs on 1, it looked easy but i got sucked into another clearing to the left. The next few were easy, but again another stupid mistake to 5, took a path too early and ran into courtyard and had to backtrack. The rest of the course was ok, but just too slow. Some good small route choice legs through the buildings and a good course overall.

MTB Cycling (Westgate Park) 1:15:00 [2] 20.0 km (3:45 / km)
shoes: Cannondale Rush

Afternoon ride with Kathryn from Jarads in Port Melbourne. Did 3 laps around Westgate park and a few small detours. Good fun course.

Orienteering race (St Georges Lake) 44:00 [4] 7.65 km (5:45 / km) +230m 5:00 / km
shoes: VJ twisters

An even worse run than yesterday. Missed 20secs on 2, 60secs on 3. Had a few ok controls but a few more shockers lately. No confidence now and out of form.

Orienteering race (XMAS 5-days) 43:00 [4] 7.0 km (6:09 / km)
slept:7.0 shoes: Teva X1 Stability

Had a good start, but bleed time badly at 10 and sloppy on a few others. Wasn't running that fast, but I was still surprised by how far behind I was. Jules is in good form.

MTB Cycling (Wombat Loop) 1:58:40 [3] 28.18 km (4:13 / km) +400m 3:56 / km
shoes: Cannondale Rush

A lap of the wombat loop at Woodend with Kathryn. Pretty cruisy pace for me, just concentrated on improving my cornering. Then I rode back to Macedon via some more single track dirt bike trails and various tracks along the road.

MTB Cycling (Distillery Creek) 2:40:00 [3] 50.0 km (3:12 / km) +1000m 2:55 / km
slept:7.0 shoes: Cannondale Rush

very early morning ride with John Jacoby near Aireys Inlet. 3 loops on some cool walking trails. Cruisy for parts but pretty solid for most of it, especially on the hills and descents in the second half.

Event: XMAS 5 Days
 

Running (Anglesea) 40:00 [3] 7.4 km (5:24 / km)
shoes: Nike Bowerman

morning run with Kathryn from the caravan on Kath's old loop. Calves a bit tight and took a while to warm up. Beaut day at the beach, but no surf on the Surf Coast as usual.

MTB Cycling (Anglesea) 2:10:00 [3] 30.0 km (4:20 / km)
shoes: Cannondale Rush

Afternoon ride with Kathryn. Up to the Scout camp, around some single trail, then out to Bells Beach and back. Stopped at the local BMX/4X track. Great fun with a cool little cross country track with real tight corners up to the top again.

MTB Cycling (You Yangs) 1:27:48 [3] 20.38 km (4:18 / km) +300m 4:01 / km
slept:8.5 shoes: Cannondale Rush

Busy day of shopping in melbourne- these people are crazy about boxing day sales! I was in Myers clothing section for a while but started to freak out with the crowds so went outside for a crepe and coffee instead. Then we went to the cricket for few hours. Pretty busy but a disappointing turn out I thought. Good to see Ricky get a century.
Then drove out to You Yangs for a quick MTB. Kathryn is improving on the single track, but still needs a bit more confidence. Rode some awesome trails on the west side we hadn't done before.
