Usual squats session. Felt nice and stable tonight for some reason.

8 AM

Cycling (Commute) 35:00 [3] 13.5 km (23.1 kph) +85m

Antibiotics have done their job over the weekend and so, feeling good again, decided to take advantage of a beautiful looking day and ride in. Good to be out.
12 PM

Running 35:00 [3] 7.0 km (5:00 / km)
shoes: Adidas Supernova Control 9

I made a spontaneous and irresponsible decision to go for a run at lunchtime. I felt so good and full of energy after the ride in this morning and it to not have run would have seemed like a waste of the sunshine. Ran down through Roma St parklands, with a pleasant detour through Fern Gully, and then along the river to GP and a lap of the gardens. Pretty hot, should have worn a hat and sunscreen but didn't have either on-hand.
5 PM

Cycling (Commute) 35:00 [3] 13.5 km (23.1 kph) +125m

Homeward bound. Another nice ride, particularly as I didn't get hit by the downpour I'd been warned of and I didn't inhale any rotten tasting bugs like my previous last ride home. Thought I was riding into a zombie movie somewhere along the freeway as I appeared to be encountering ever denser hordes of dawdling commuters but they turned out to be normal dawdling commuters.

Note
(sick)

Went to the doc and likely have a strep throat infection so am now on anti-biotics. I've been contagious since Thursday or Friday last week so I apologise to anyone I've been close to since ...

Glands in neck have swollen up, feel as big as golfballs. Throat starting to feel sore ... I'm getting sick of being sick ...

9 AM

Running warm up/down 5:00 [3] 1.0 km (5:00 / km)
shoes: Jalas FLX

Orienteering race (Cotton's Paddock) 41:40 [4] 7.9 km (5:16 / km) +150m 4:49 / km
shoes: Jalas FLX

A state event at Cottons Paddock which turned out to be super fast open farmland and forest with naught but a little hill in the middle. Had a reasonable run, not super fast, with a couple of wayward moments costing a minute or so all up. Clive blitzed me by nearly 4min; didn't see what times Mark or Kurt (or Anna) did before I left. Nice to run in such an open area for once.

Running warm up/down 10:00 [3] 2.0 km (5:00 / km)
shoes: Jalas FLX

5 PM

Running (Commute) 45:00 [3] 7.3 km (6:10 / km) +50m 5:58 / km
shoes: Nike Free 5.0 (grey/green)

Jog from KG to Toowong, meeting up with Anna at the ICB at the overpass. Nice evening run and got to try the newly renovated section of the path along the river.

8 AM

Cycling (Commute) 38:00 [3] 13.5 km (21.3 kph) +85m

Ride to work for the first time in ages. Took it pretty easy and felt quite good. Right knee seems a little unhappy; not sure if it's sore from the bruising I gave it at the QLD champs or if it's something else. It was much warmer than I expected ... already dreading summer.
5 PM

Cycling 35:00 [3] 13.5 km (23.1 kph) +125m

Ride home. Still not feeling awful suprisingly. Swallowed an insect by Anzac Park which I can't identify except that it was somewhat larger than a fly and tasted bloody awful. I didn't have any water with me so had to live with it until I got home.

12 PM

Running 21:00 [3]
shoes: Nike Free 5.0 (grey/green)

Quick trot around the block at lunchtime. It felt hot and I didn't enjoy that.

7 AM

Running long 1:20:00 [3]
shoes: Adidas Supernova Cushion 7

Cyclones long run from Rachel's place around the reservoir. Started off strong at the front with Rachel but when we caught up to everyone again, after they'd taken a shortcut, I eased off and plodded the rest of the way with Anna, which was a very pleasant thing to do on a beautiful day.

5 PM

Running 33:00 [3] 6.0 km (5:30 / km)
shoes: Adidas Supernova Cushion 7

Run from KG into Toowong with my backpack. Got a bad run through the traffic into Roma St and then slowed by a phone call and had to do the last 3.5km from Roma St to Toowong in 18min to be on time. Was pretty hard work with the pack.

12 PM

Running warm up/down 24:00 [3] 2.5 km (9:36 / km)
shoes: Nike Free 5.0 (grey/green)

Warm up round KG plus 3 sets of giant lunges up one of hills, easy jog between the hill sprints, and a very short warm down to the kebab shop.

Running hills 1:20 [5]
shoes: Nike Free 5.0 (grey/green)

8 x 10s hill sprints. Same session as previously except extended the length an additional car length (the finishing mark is the side of the road car parking) thinking I'd be pushing the sprints out to about 15s but when I timed a couple I was doing them in ~10s so should have added a bus-length instead of a car-length.
