ROAD BIKE 1:25:04 41.87 km (2:02 / km) +351m 1:57 / km
ahr:123 max:154 shoes: Shimano M123

Asked Toph if he wanted to go for a ride, his reply was" As long as it's not to hard, my ankle is sore" So I decided that I would ride out to Storys, then we would do the Goose, and I would go home.

Once I picked him up, we were going 'up hill' doing 40 kph, I wondered what he meant by 'not to hard' He soon slowed down once we hit the real hill, and we rolled around the rest of the Goose

10 AM

MTB race 34:33 11.22 km (3:05 / km) +176m 2:51 / km
ahr:146 max:161 shoes: Shimano M123

Had entered the Du-O, but not being able to run, didn't think I would do it. Decided it was worth while for the ride only, and luckily for me picked up Kevin Humphries to do the run.

Set of after Dodd and Schepisi, caught up to Aaron at 4, but didn't know it was him (He had gone to 4 via 7) saw him again at 6 after he overshot (had gone a better way and was back in front) then that was that, he had to save himself a little for another run, were as I could go into lactic as I only had to tag Kevin.

Aaron ran down Kev, we were 2nd overall, about 40 secs behind.
Canadian has to be one of the best area's for MTBO, lots of tracks, going in all directions, and all of them ride-able

MTB warm up/down 15:00 [1] 5.0 km (3:00 / km)
shoes: Shimano M123

Out and about a bit as a cool down

8 PM

MTB 29:30 10.07 km (2:56 / km) +91m 2:48 / km
ahr:109 max:137 shoes: Shimano M123

There was a bit of a temperature drop, so headed out to make the most of it, the house was warm, so good time to get out.

Morning rise to Crusoe Res

So much better in the morning, Bogans aren't out of bed yet, was nice to have a swim. Saw the Invisible one, he had done another 90 min run, and Bob Cameron was doing his morning 1k swim, as well as some others I knew, and then there was the Bootcamp as well.

Ride home was pleasant, easy ride/roll down hill, well sort of :)

C • Birthday ride? 1

ROAD BIKE 1:03:56 31.31 km (2:03 / km) +295m 1:57 / km
ahr:126 max:174 shoes: Shimano M123

A CBF ride. Had to do something, so finally headed out via Mandurang, got to Story's Rd, and a dude came out in front of me, thought it may have been Toph, couldn't even run them down, so gave up on the Gooseneck idea, and did a Reverse Juvy instead.

See if I feel better, when I try a 2nd ride

8 PM

ahr:121 max:207 shoes: Shimano M123

Around and about, thought I might have been doing it a bit late, as is a warm day, but meet a couple of PPL out there running, and we know that is harder than riding :)

8 PM

ROAD BIKE intervals 25:27 14.12 km (1:48 / km) +124m 1:44 / km
ahr:137 max:164 shoes: Shimano M123

Had a bit of a hit out on the Super Mini Juvey, otherwise known as a lap of Spring Gully Res, or the Crazy Cat Woman run.

Now I know what it feels like to be spent, and trying to get over Laudners Hill

Still got a bit of work to do if I'm up to taking on Ev and his 1:45 per k for 37k, pity Toph doesn't log, as I reckon he is up to something like that as well

ROAD BIKE 37:21 16.22 km (2:18 / km) +249m 2:08 / km
ahr:129 max:175 shoes: Shimano M123

Parked the car on the approach to Willunga, and watched the TDU roll pass a couple of times, then went for a short ride up the decent, but though it would be better watching/listening to it all back were the car was, so returned in a hurry

ROAD BIKE 3:09:35 79.28 km (2:23 / km) +859m 2:16 / km
ahr:128 max:219 shoes: Shimano M123

Peoples day at the TDU, but I did my own ride to Tanunda with a few short cuts.

Didn't get of to a good start, blew the rear tube not far after starting, luckily there was a group nearby setting up there bikes, and they had a track pump, reckon if I had to pump it myself, I would've rolled home. Also made the mistake of going part way up Checkers Hill, then wondered why there was no one else there, till I realised I was on the wrong hill, didn't need that extra work.

Got a lift home, glad about that :)

10 AM

RUN race (Steeple) 12:24 3.0 km (4:08 / km)
ahr:159 max:168 shoes: Lunar Racer

Whoops, fell at the 1st Steeple!

The girl beside me did a hand plant, and kicked her feet out to the side, and I was already in the air with nowhere to go, so took her out, overbalanced, and crashed onto my hands on the track, far out, my hands hurt.

Got myself up, but legs felt like lead, and the adrenalin rush was hard to control, staggered down the back straight thinking about pulling out, but once I had cleared the 1st water, all was good again, phew

Charles tried to run me down over the last 2 last, but I had the technique, so knew that if I gave a little kick at the last water (150 to go) I had him, but then the calf went, and I staggered again, but held on for 2nd 50+

So nice going over the low steeples, only 76 cm :)
