Training Log Archive: Uncle JiM

Entered the 10k so I wouldn't have to run so fast, but there was a good hill soon after the start, and I was left wanting air, so called it a day at 3k, and ran/walked home.

Bryan ran well to win the 5k, and put his name on the trophy next to Mottram

Easy ride up and about, had to do something after the dismal effort this morning

Event: Bendigo Twilight 1/2 hr
 

The cooler weather arrived just in time for us to start.

I think a number of the others were watching me to see what way to go, I chose west, and was joined by 4 of them. Didn't even get to the 1st control before I was coughing. Bryan went one way at the 4th, I went the other, he was faster, maybe because he is faster (-: Went different ways again at the 7th, didn't see him again. Got a gap on Dave at the 8th, one that he couldn't come back from, so I settled for 2nd, 4 mins behind Bryan

Was meant to be going to the Athletics Bendigo Dinner, but as the coughing episode was still going, thought the better of it and stayed at the O event

Evening ride with Dave. Shortened goose neck, back via Tannery lane. Dont think either of us was feeling good, but I still had the better of Dave. Good to get a decent ride out of the way.

Got out just before lunch, and before the temperature got to high.

Out to Sandhurst Res, Channel track to Mandurang Rd, then home via Mandurang/Kangaroo Gully.

Was nice out, as long as I didn't push it to hard on the hills (-:

To the Track, then did 4x400 with the Moook at a very easy pace, then home again

Woke up not feeling well, had to think hard about taking the truck, but started to feel a little better, so went. Still suffering
