Event: Malmalling
 

VE course with Liam. Liam had the map all the way but would only look at it when I asked him to and probably would have gone the wrong way a couple of times if I didn't ask him the right questions. Much faster than the last couple of courses I have done with him, cross country training appears to be paying off. Tried to persuade him to start his run for home a bit earlier but without success. He obviously had the energy for it as he sprinted from the finish to the caravan racing a group of other kids that we caught at the finish only to download and find out someone else had beaten him by 10 seconds.
Dizzy spells and chest pain after finishing made me glad I didn't try anything harder.

Ran over to the school for cross country training with Liam on his bike. We got there for 7:30 but nobody was there. Saw Nick running past on his way to work so I stopped him and he told me it starts at 8am on Wednesday.
Did a lap of Rosalie park to pass the time, mostly pretty slow but one very fast stretch down the hill to the tennis courts.
Joined in with the kids doing 12 reps up and down the grass bank between the lower and upper ovals. Got beaten by about half the kids but they were doing it in pairs as a relay doing 6 reps each. Did a set of 4 strides on the flat after the hills to finish off. Heart was mostly ok until I finished but started to feel really bad as soon as I stopped and had to walk most of the way home. Still feeling pretty bad now, about 1.5 hours later.
