Note

Social golf with our visitors, this time at my home course which is in great shape even after the 2-day Pro-Am and two other tournaments last week. Much better today with 34 points with 9 pars (and, unfortunately, 2 wipes!).

Note

Comp golf at the "other" course in Wagga, City Golf club, with some mates from out of town. Haven't played here for about 5 years and probably won't be rushing back as course was in a very poor condition but can't blame that for an equally poor 30 stableford points - too many missed fairways and lots of bad chips.

Morning run from home. First time out the back gate for about 3 weeks. Very cool this morning and could almost have done with a vest. Managed a bit further today and felt OK most of the way, though still slow. Off to Ryder's 2nd birthday party later this morning:-)

Event: NOL & Vic Bush State Series 2 - Yackandandah - Rowdy Flat

2 PM

Orienteering race (Vic SL and NOL) 1:18:17 [4] 5.27 km (14:51 / km) +56m 14:06 / km
shoes: Salomon Trail

Middle Distance at Rowdy Flat. Ran course 2 and made a good start through 3 then made the sort of error that can happen here on 4 and lost about 10 minutes. OK 5 thru 12 with some time lost on both 7 and 12. 13 proved too hard (although it was far from the hardest control today) despite several attempts so headed back for my 2nd DNF in 2 weeks. Not a great start to the season but the only way is up!

Cycling 1:01:31 [3] 19.86 km (3:06 / km) +124m 3:00 / km

Morning ride from home - usual route out to Rawlings but added an extra loop in the reserve. Quite dark at that time of the morning....

Running 35:57 [3] 6.69 km (5:22 / km) +33m 5:15 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 14 2nd pair w

Afternoon lap of the Lake plus a side track out to Plumpton Rd. Warm but not uncomfortable and felt good for the first 4 or so km. Struggled with fitness and a head wind for the last couple of kms but good to get out again.

Orienteering race (1st Interclub with AWOC) 1:14:25 [4] *** 6.86 km (10:51 / km) +284m 8:59 / km
spiked:7/15c shoes: Inov8 Oroc 350

Ist Interclub on the aptly named Mt Terrible map just north of Albury. A good start but missed 2 badly and then a little high on 4. Good 5 through to 8, then came # 9. No problems with nav as I spiked it but we climbed 17 contours, which in itself is no big issue but we then had to go back down again (about 12 contours) and then back up again (another 10 contours), ruining an otherwise pretty good course from a first time setter. My lack of fitness really hit here and I missed 10 altogether by poor (fatigued) map reading and was almost at 11 before I realised so decided discretion was appropriate and pulled the pin.

A nice morning run in Rawlings Park with Briohny, Deb and Darcy the dog. I think the dog is the fittest one of all of us at the moment! Deb and I with our coughs and colds and Briohny with, well, that nice little bit of extra weight to carry :-)

Orienteering race (Waggaroos Street Series) 43:22 [3] 6.76 km (6:25 / km) +83m 6:03 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 14 2nd pair w

Final street and park event for the summer, back in Kooringal for the event that was cancelled due to hail prior to Christmas. My first run in a week and felt like it too! Took it very steady, especially on the hills and was back a few minutes under time. A fair bit of coughing and wheezing due to the remnants (I hope) of the chest bug.

Wednesday Mar 12, 2014 #

5 PM

Cycling 58:10 [3] 18.79 km (3:06 / km) +136m 2:59 / km

First attempt at training of any sort since last Thursday. Chest infection just about cleared up, so ventured out on the bike and really enjoyed it. Hopefully the start of a decent training spell.

Note
(sick)

Walked the 1.5km easy course on Willan's Hill with Briohny and Ryder in the backpack (on my back!). Have been struggling all week with a nasty cough and lack of breath so no running. I think it may be some sort of viral infection so off to the docs tomorrow.

Hectic run around the Victory Memorial Gardens and adjoining Civic Centre prescinct. 38 controls on a 1:2000 scale map with a 30 minute time limit. Managed to get them all with about a minute to spare.

Running 28:07 [3] 5.01 km (5:37 / km) +19m 5:31 / km

Short run in Canberra after conference. Out round Acton Peninsula and the Museum then back to the hotel. Struggle town with chest cold (courtesy of fellow passenger on flight home from Sydney last week) but needed to do something!

Saturday Mar 1, 2014 #

Note

Golf, monthly medal and an OK effort. Missed a few fairways but scrambled OK except for two holes, both par 4s, where I ran up a 7 and a 9. Finished 4 over my handicap with a net 76 so those 2 holes cost me badly.

7 AM

Running 21:31 [3] 4.01 km (5:22 / km) +11m 5:18 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 14 white/gold

Short morning run from home ahead of a busy day that included golf and the NAB Cup game GWS v St Kilda (sorry Stk66, Saints were pretty poor!)
