Went for an awesome ride somewhere new for the first time in about a year. Kept going up the Yarra to Banksia St in and out of the single track among the blackberries. Thought I'd better turn around at some stage seeing as though I've got an exam on Thursday which needs to be studied for. Wasn't quite what I was expecting from the much famed single track, but it was a really enjoyable ride. Legs were pretty buggered by the time I got back to the Merri Crk after my detour out to the Boulevard from Wilson Reserve. Clearly you can't get back to the boathouse on that side of the river.

Left heel has been sore since Wednesday, feels bruised, don't know why.

Made the big committment and entered Easter, W21E. Scary stuff. Now I just need to get transport and accommodation.

To street o after the last day of uni :-)

Had a slightly better route choice than last week, the lack of a river helped. Still spent way too long trying to work out what controls to drop. And still not in orienteering mode...turning into the street where the control is but forgetting to stop and just running past it. Oops. More practise needed.

Struggling on the way to uni (downhill) but flying home (uphill).

1,2,3,2,1 Not tough enough for the second 3 min yet.

8min w/u
1 min recovery after each interval
11 min warm down.

Warm up/down just around the 'burbs. Did the intervals on Fleming Park, interrupted all the dog walkers/nonnas.

Felt sooo good after I pumped up the tyres.
