ACt Champs at Foxlow Flats. Had entered M21E but decided that 15k was too far with Lifeline ride at end of the week. Also not too fussed about O these days. Started with intention of running for 90mins and thats what I did. Got up to the group of controls 13-17 and then jogged back home along a track.

decided to have a day off. watched the gf at hoggsters place. go cats! also found out that 3 pies is too many pies.

C • Andrew McDougall 2

Tour de Pete. Only been away 2 Petes but it seems to have gone up a cog in the mean time. I felt good and went well but struggled to keep up. Big group - shep, frogga, kez, liggo, peteW, jules, dgreen, bj, prosseri.

Copped a personal best for abuse from a motorist. Was on the tail of the group crossing Yass Rd and traffic very nicely let me through. They werent all happy about it though as a guy in a van pulled up beside me, passenger window down and drove beside me for 50-100m or so giving me a serve. "What right have you got to hold the traffic up" "Why dont you ride single file" blah blah blah. He was mighty angry so I bit my tongue given he was driving a van and I was on a bike. Couldnt hold myself back towards the end and used a few choice words back but I cant say it was an enjoyable part of the ride.

C • abuse 4

commute home into the wind with Liggo.

Still feeling poor in the shins but quads much better so thought a trot might help and indeed it did. no pains in shins when running, just some achillies soreness. slow shuffle through ANu, round museum point and then back over bridge next to Max's place. stopped several times for stretching. felt better by the end than at the start.

C • Max's place 3

commute. body improving but still sore, particularly shins. might be a chance for a little trot tomorrow but no-way-today jose.

C • i get that a lot 1

world record for slowness in commuting. My legs are stuffed. No way I am running anywhere - shins and quads very sore. I presume things will improve from tomorrow. Glad to be back at work NOT.

Woke up very stiff and sore in quads and calves. Very slow down hills. Decided a swim was immideatley in order and headed into motel pool, only for Ian & Julia to arrive 5mins later looking for the same rememdy. AFter about another 20mins in the spa started packing.

We spent the morning lazing by the lagoon with Troy, reading the pape and occasional dips. Then bus to airport, flight to BrisVegas and on to reality, I mean Canberra. Very sore after any period of sitting down but made it home ok and everything in one piece back at home.
