Cycling 1:00:29 [4] 30.76 km (1:58 / km) +464m 1:50 / km

Lane Cove NP. Goal was to get over 30 kmh, and succeeded - thanks to no wind and good road surface. Happy with that considering the climb.

Note: finding Geology jobs is a lot easier these days than when I was looking even ones in Sweden!

Core Stability 10:00 [1]
(injured)

So, got the X-ray results: it isn't the achilles! It is a degenerative cyst (hole) at the base of the tibia (inside the ankle). Causes pain on impingement. "Do not Run", which is great advice a week ahead of Easter. Still, what extra damage can I do?

Bobbin Head via Pacific Hiway. 13:49 for the climb. Missed the Bobbin Head cycle which was this am, but they still had the "watch for cyclists" signs up, which was good.

Cycling 1:55:00 [3] 53.71 km (2:08 / km) +825m 1:59 / km

Akuna Bay. Brilliant day for it. Had a tail to the top of McCarrs Ck Rd then he went clockwise and I went anticlockwise. 25 minutes later I came back to there and he was about 30 seconds ahead. Caught up at the Terry Hills lights at which point he took off like a scalded cat and popped me on the next small hill. Lights and repeat, except I led most of the way to the notorious St Ives hill where I popped big time, losing a minute. Caught him again at the lights and this time got away behind a B-double.

Core Stability (Pilates) 1:10:00 [1]

Getting concerned and may have to tick the injured box soon. L achilles getting sorer - or is it in the heel? And recently the L knee has gone bung as well: strange pain on the outside - can even feel it walking.

Core Stability (Pilates) 1:00:00 [1]

Worked hard. Lots of niggles and aches at the moment since the Sprint and Summer Series (for me) finished. Amazing that I could get through 30 odd events without a real problem and as soon as it stops my legs just get worse and worse.

Event: Sydney Sprint Series #10

5 PM

Teering (Sprint Series) 24:00 [5] 4.22 km (5:41 / km) +91m 5:08 / km
shoes: Saucony HP 12, Blue

Mort Bay Dock, Birchgrove (Balmain), really tricky. 3rd. Lost 1:35 in mistakes or stopped reading the map but that was a lot less than most people. Managed to snag 3rd with no split faster than 4th.

I think they got the symbol sizes wrong (too small) though. I did check at one stage to see if I wasn't on a 1:10,000. And it was the longest of quite a few "Long Sprints" we've had recently.
Pity the series is over, it's been really good overall and apart from the two mps and the first one where I was stuffed from the 5 days I've had a pretty good series:
15, 10, 2, 5, 3, 4, mp, mp, 6, 3

Cycling 1:15:20 [3] 33.2 km (2:16 / km) +509m 2:06 / km

Lane Cove NP. Rain, wet roads, but quiet - only had cars in the last 5 minutes because they don't open the gates till late. Did have lots of roller skiers though. Managed to get up the hill to home without engaging granny gear, I think thats a first.
