Event: Sydney Sprint Series #10
 

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

Sprint - Splits

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.

Buffalo Creek, Gladesville. Very wet. Hadn't intended to run, having driven to Maitland and back prior. But Cath didn't show (Aoife has a cough) and I'd bought a map, so went off slowly. Too slowly - 10 minutes over! L Achilles is still niggly; physio says it might be a problem in the ankle joint.
