i had one run today. the last leg into the finish :D started 5km out of lowood and ran along the railway track into fernvale. Was so hot at 1:45pm yet again but kept going. had a good pace at the start but lost it at the end...got to work on that. was dead at the finish but nonetheless i went straight to the pieshop to get my free pie before the line :P

Awesome 500k relay, our team came 4th overall and thats pretty good for a mixed team..unlike those loser victory boys....ew

run 26:00 [4] 5.5 km (4:44 / km)

Run no. 3 day 2. Again hot as but not as humid. today i was applying sunscreen at 6am, thats how hot it was. Ran at 6:30 worst part was the heat comming off the road hitting my face. terrible. Ran ok but very stiff from yesterday. quads and calves and abs were icky.

run 25:30 [3] 5.0 km (5:06 / km)

death to 5km criterion at Warwick at 12:45
death... Ran the first loop ok, actually very quickly but then the heat got me and i got a massive stitch. i tried to get rid of it by taking longer deep breaths but that somehow caused me to go all asthmary again and start weezing and air ways constricting..you know that thing i get when i over exert myself. So i stopped and tried to breath and i finally got in under control and jogged the rest back. somehow still did 5min ks for walking and jogging it..weird

run 27:20 [5] 5.4 km (5:04 / km)

1.30pm run. worst idea ever. Grant only put me on for one leg on friday so i swapped a run with daryl cause he got three and wanted to run well in the crit in the arvo. he said his run was somewhere in the arvo-me thinking 4pm..wrong! it was 3 hours after the first one and even hotter and humid. This was on the road out to cotswald, i tagged Ian with an awesome high five. But so dead and so hot...couldnt move

run race (mousdash) 51:44 [5] 10.5 km (4:56 / km)

whoops, i kinda pushed the hill to hard to start with. I died by the round about. However i managed to stay a good pace for most of the way until channel 10, running with the same blokes the whole time with the next girl coasting at about 50m ahead of me the whole time.
Then came the 2km down hill. It was awesome fun i reckon i did that in like 6mins. I think i pushed myself too hard though cause when i got to the flat at the bottom, i just couldnt move anymore, everything seized up. Went from 3:30min ks to 6min and sat on that until the last hill and down to the finish. it was gay, 5 girls passed me on the flat 5mins before the end cause i just couldnt get my feet moving. stupid down hill.
anyway i did a 7min PB and was 15th girl and 114th overall

fun run, and it was fun. i had an ok pace the whole time and i think i placed about 10th ish maybe for the women. the first woman did 18:17mins ive seen her before in running mags..so what ever. Nina came 4th so that was cool. ALSO i was running the whole thing with lord mayor campbell neumann. i totally didnt know until i finished when i turned around and saw him cross the line. bahaha i beat him yeah! he must have been the bloke i over took 100m before the line.

run 1:11:00 [3] 10.0 km (7:06 / km)

run from my house up payne road to gap creek and back. was with mat and claire. mat first run back from getting home from europe. slow and claire decided that she was bored of running so we walked for like 10mins.
hahah good times

orienteering race 25:20 [4] 4.9 km (5:10 / km)

UG park o at city botanic gardens. was good fun. had a bit of confusion in the buildings and the upper levels though

Note

looking at the finish splt on the course alot of people were 30sec faster then me, it makes me think that maybe you could have gone though the park to get to the control ( i thought there was green just before the track)
the only possible way to that control (by my dodgly printed map) was to go all the way down the track to the junction up the track on the left and in to it via the small track. not though the grass to the left and though the green,over the track and into the control.
i will have another look at my map to see if there is a way though the green but i dunno.
