MTB Orienteering race 1:23:51 [4] 21.53 km (3:54 / km) +504m 3:29 / km
weight:74.9kg (sick)

Western Sydney Parklands: The Dairy, Course 1. (GPS climb 344m). Probably a bit much given the cold/flu. Still coughing gunk this morning. Felt pretty good during the race, no problem breathing. Just a little tired on hills. The O was sloppy though. Took the wrong track on the way to 3 (-2 mins). Rode past 5 (-1:10). Wrong route 5-6 (-1) and 13-14 (-1). Couldn't see the flag at 3 and 18 (-20s each). So lost 5:50 in avoidable mistakes.

At home. Cold seems a bit better, less gunk.

Note

EDIT: They postponed the event because it has been too wet.

Still tempted to run the City Mile Dash tomorrow, despite the cold. Just not sure that 9 days rest is enough; this feels like the annual 3 week+ cold that I get. However the lethargy of last weekend has gone and breathing isn't affected too much, at least during the day.

W - Artarmon to pick up car from Bob Jane. Who knew banana trees grew in Artarmon? L knee has been sore since Sunday but was a bit better today. Nose-cold started on Tuesday afternoon but hasn't got much worse. Breathing OK.

Teering race (Metro League) 44:06 [4] 9.06 km (4:52 / km) +58m 4:43 / km
shoes: ASICS Kayano 20

Centennial Park, Div. 1. An easy area and this was a very easy course. Still lost major time on the two dodgy controls stuck in the bushes. Peter Annetts caught me at the first one (no. 3, -1:45), so I did the repass 5-6. Then he caught me again at the next one (no. 14, -1:10). By this stage I was a bit frustrated, so got back in front by 15 and ran hard to the finish.
Horrible result on the AP rankings, but better (???) than the sprint I won at the QBIII last Saturday according to the Pink Rankings.
Ps I hope the next event here is on a Sprint Map version with more of the detail mapped.

shoes: VJ Bold

Gardens of Stone, QBIII Day 3, SL9, M55, Course 2. Okm 4.9/140m,GPS 102m. A really good run except for no.12 (-2 mins). Also lost time at 1, 11 and 13. But ran really well. Almost felt sprightly in a very short warm up,struggled a bit on the hills but generally good. Caught Toby at 2 after he missed it. He got away after 9, but I caught back up after he missed 11. We then caught Mike Burton at 12, and all three of us were going back and forward. Unfortunately they decided to go north when I went south. Caught Mike again at 15 and Geoff Todkill at 21. I fell over after 22 and they got away, but I had the strraighter line to 23 and finished ahead.
