Training Log Archive: acejase

slug-like solo run which included up-and-over Black Mtn via push-bike track. Bit weary as build running back up again.

Crackenback run with "surge" through crackenback hills. Surge was 11.26 (156/167).

Tour de Pete and then ride back home to Belco with Hoggster. Coffee was gooood.

Solid run with andy & pippa. Gossan Hill - AIS - Bruce Ridge - Black Mtn - Aranda Hill. Found Scotty & then Searlo doing secret training so they joined us for the last part. Obv. had to slow down for scotty.

Course setting for ACT MTB-O Champs at Kowen. Dunno how much was riding - I had an 2hr48 on watch so guessed 105mins. Bl&^dy 24hr race has created new tracks on our brand new map. I guess we knew it might happen and mapper Slatts could only come in Uni holis but still it is frustrating and we consulted with 24hr course designer who didnt mention some of the new tracks. There were a couple of sections where 24hr course made a track parallel to an existing one. So I spent a moderate amount of time mapping while checking sites. Good thing though is new single tracks increases complexity of area. Should be tough so hopefully a few of you reading this rock up on Nov 5 - entry form on www.ozmtbo.com . Top course 34k so you should get your moneys worth.

ride round lake on the way into work. ran into (not literally) TQ so did last little bit. got in a battle with some dude (dont think he realised) so was a bit pacier than intended for a little while.
