Little Possums loop with Rachel and Virpi. A little sore around both achilles all the way, otherwise feeling reasonable. Quite an effort to hold myself back towards the end, didn't entirely succeed but came pretty close.

About an hour of serving practice plus a few short green ball tie-breakers, two with Liam and one with Rachel.

Claisebrook Cove Parkrun with Liam. Started towards the back and gradually got faster. Felt very easy and pain free.

Little hit with Rachel, then some more with Alistair and Liam when the camp kids took over the courts.

Rode down to Dalkeith to check the metro course. Stopped to check the opening hours of the patisserie near the start (8am-4pm) and realised my front tyre was getting very soft. I pumped it up just before starting and didn't have any spares, tools or pump so decided I'd better head for home. Made it home safely by going very carefully around all the corners. Found the valve had nearly ripped off, possibly related to bending it when going through a ditch with the bike on the back of the car a few years ago.

Easy run in KP. Left lower leg still not right. Not really hindering me at all but getting a variety of pains throughout the run.

Some red ball with Amy, some serving and feeding a few balls to Rachel. Shoulders a bit sore from serving yesterday.

Did some serving while Liam had a lesson. Only one went over the fence.
