A few laps of the park across the road with Wayne to warm up.

Nav Dash ECU Mt Lawley. Legs felt pretty good for a change but I think that may have been my downfall because my navigation was hopeless. Got put off by the door to the undercover area on the way to 2 and also misread the paths and went right out to the road. Went through an open gate into an OOB area leaving 6. Lost my place and took a wrong turn on the way to 12. Thought the gap between buildings at 16 went right through so went the wrong side. Spent almost a minute looking every side of every wall at 18 before realising I was on the wrong level. Slow at 19 because I didn't realise it was underneath. Got to the finish ok to download and find I hadn't punched the map change control. The map boxes were before the control with a small tree between the maps and the control. After picking up the new map I started towards the control then noticed it was OOB that way and turned back without punching. Didn't really care as I was way off the pace anyway.

Jogged over to pick up my first map from the map change and continued out to the footy ovals and back past the lake. Felt terrible all the way.

Long - Splits

Includes ride there and back.
S30, B22.5, R22.5

Jogged from Perry Lakes to Pizza on Cambridge with Matt.

Lap of KP with Ivan. Felt a desire to run fast in the middle of the day but had lost it by the time we got out at the end of the day. Not much surging tonight but a reasonably solid steady pace.

S25, O22.5, D45

Long slow run in KP. Bumped into Tooms as soon as I entered KP so did an out and back to the top of the sandy hill with him. He made me go a bit faster up the hill than I would have on my own but it didn't feel too bad. Met a couple of big playful dogs on the way down and then realised they belonged to David Cane.
Dropped Tooms off near Monash and then looped around until I had done my time. Could tell I was getting a bit tired in the last half hour because I started surging.
