morning long run at strommy. went around the edge of aracnacopia (? dunno how to spell this) then up to the top of stromlo then just whizzed around on the single tracks before going back to the car.
watch died at 90mins, but time of day and mothers watch said i'd prob done 1hr50.
came across a 'track closed' sign at one point, so just thought 'meh' and kept going. came to an epic ravine! haha! got down on my stomach to drop into it (while miff licked my face) but it was a bigger drop than i expected....so i kinda messed one leg up a bit. found out mother went a bit to the left where there was a much better crossing point haha.

ints at stromlo. had to do it in the hot arvo cuz i didnt wanna be in a rush for my chem exam this morning (yep, how rude to have an exam on a saturday morning)
anyway, did 6 x 90sec single track hills. they were fun! there were lots of banana bugs around though. spent the whole time going over all the questions i did wrong in my chem exam. grr

i swear, the amount of study i need to do is directly related to my procrastination levels slash the amount of time i spend messing around doing nothing. its so bad! this should be an inverse relationship....

abit muddy and rainy out at strommy, but it was really fun! ran to the top, which was covered in cloud, then along skyline etc.
felt alright, calves got super tight going uphill. neeeeeeeed to stretch. instead of just thinking about it :P

strommy single tracks
felt alright, calves got v tight going up. was pretty cool in all the fog, got super drenched though!

C • aw 6

warm up and down.

xc at weston park
i dunno how long i took, its on my watch somewhere but i dont really wanna look as i know it was slow. however, it was raining pretty heavily, the course was apparently 300m too long, and it was all on the wet slippery muddy grass (like a real cross country!).
so yeah. doesnt really matter what time i took anyway as i pushed hard and thats all that matters :)
oh and i didnt wimp out because of the rain like heaps of people :P

morning run at stromlo, took my bio notes with me to read whilst running. should do this way more often! not sure whether i learnt anything, apart from the fact that im prob going to get rolled in the exam, but it was a really good distraction from plodding along.
