Biking to Chris's then to the parents with a few detours and hills. It was good apart from witnessing a weird boy-racer confrontation where they stopped in the middle of the road, got out and had a screaming match - right where I wanted to go. They must have somehow known there was a police car heading their way as they got in their cars all quite suddenly and screeched off in different directions just before the cop car cruised down the road. Weird.

Team run round One Tree Hill with Jono, Ee and Cameron. It was a pretty cruisy pace which was good 'cause my legs were feeling tired. Waffles for brunch afterwards - perfect!

Ran up to the summit via the dirt track then back round the long way home. Felt totally buggered afterwards. It's SO hot outside!

Ran through One Tree Hill to the end of Puriri Drive where I waited for Jono. We then ran back through One Tree Hill up to the summit via the dirt track then back home via the longer route. Jono was dying. The dirt track is a killer but this time I made it without having to walk any of it (although I felt like I was going to be sick near the top). We raced each other from the lights at Mt Smart Road to the letterbox. I lost but only just so Jono must have been truly buggered! Exhausting.

Barely awake most of the day. It was going to be a total rest day (i.e. do nothing but lie around and read) but tech issues at work meant I had to drive in and wait for ages for my workmate to arrive (I lost my work keys...but I found them again tonight...yay!) just to plug one damn cable in. There went half a day :(

Hmmm, that was a bit of a moan wasn't it!

Feeling particularly weak which is typical when I'm feeling low I guess.

Recovery run round One Tree Hill with Jono and Ee. Luckily Ee's pace is perfect for a gentle run so I didn't die. Good to be home.
