Training Log Archive: Clara

Tried to take the low road but the Merri Crk was over the track. Turned around and took the high road instead.

This must be why I didn't go to Tassie...I got a trophy. So proud :P 2nd female in all of Coburg. Overcooked it a bit on the first hill and just plodded the rest. Never going back to orienteering now that I know you can get trophies elsewhere without even running fast ;)

Why is it a full 10 degrees warmer in St Helens than Melbourne? And why am I not in St Helens?

Because it was wet, dark and cold. And because I could. Thought I was going faster, feeling good at the start, shins got a bit sore towards the end.

So I haven't actually been to uni yet, but I probably will...

I went. It was bliss on wheels after I pumped up my tyres and electrical taped the seat up ('cept my crank is loose and my back brake doesn't sound like it should).

Shortened Clara fartlek. Still can't bring myself to do the first 2x1'30. Was pretty slow tonight, tried to push a bit more towards the end. Around barf park.

13' w/u. Got stuck down a dead end. Shins a bit sore.
11' w/d. Mostly around Fleming Park, too many dogs.

Best weather ever :) Spent most of the day sitting in Systems Garden in the sunshine finishing my German talk. Couldn't have been better (the sitting in the sun, the talk could have been quite a bit better). Good weather just puts me in such a good mood :)

Retraced half my route from street o last night on the way to/from uni.

Saving myself for street o later.

I think I cheated. I ran off when I thought I hear someone say go, but noone else did. Oh well. Jenny Sheahan was trying to convert me. She almost had me too, with her offer of cake. Didn't need a headtorch (don't own one anyway), ran with my bike light but didn't turn it on. Almost got hit by one of my 1st yr chem lecturers on his bike. Entirely my fault, but he wasn't wearing a helmet so we'll blame it on him. Went within about 100m of home, was going to drop in but didn't have my keys.

Ooohhh...almost forgot. I booked flights today. Leaving for Prague on July 5. Rather excited/scared. Still no word from Uni Freiburg.
