Orienteering 1:34:00 [3] 8.04 km (11:41 / km)

Orienteering at Chinaman's Flat near Linton. I woke feeling much much better with cold virtually disappearing overnight. I've never run in this part of the world before and found it quite enjoyable. I made about 5 significant errors on this course including not aiming off for a control in a gully and consequently ran up and down (but not far enough down) for a while to find it. I started to tire and got a few dizzy spells towards the end - perhaps indicative that I was not quite better yet.

It was Trollop's day again!! Three cheers for Trollop. She has proven that not all Elmore residents are morons. Sprite ran off the map so I managed to beat her.

Orienteering 1:04:00 [3] 4.9 km (13:04 / km)

Surface Hill orienteering near Smythesdale - middle distance event. I had a cold, sore knee and felt generally below par but plodded around OK. The first lap was good but I ran out of puff going up the hill on the second lap and had to sit down several times due to dizziness. Everyone has their day and it was the Trollop's day. Both she and the Sprite resoundly beat me. Trollop deserved all the glory she got!

Walk 51:00 [3] 5.92 km (8:37 / km)

Street-O at Canterbury Gardens. I didn't feel to crash hot - have a cold, knee sore - so why push it? Decided to alternate jogging/walking.

I'm on the 26th floor at work and today we had a fire drill (i.e. walk down the stairs). I decided that, if my life depended on it, of course I would walk down the stairs. However, with my sore knee, there was no way I was going to aggravate it unecessarily (esp. before this weekend). So my colleagues determined that this was natural selection at work - some survive the disaster, some don't (and I was in the latter category).

Walk 50:00 [2] 5.0 km (10:00 / km)

A brisk walk around Blackburn after work. I am very busy at the moment and seem to be about to catch a cold. Work is abuzz regarding the flood saga - which will now last for months as the flow of water gradually works its way downstream. Murray river towns are busy preparing - as all that water flowing from central NSW has to go somewhere.

Not very happy at the moment as I discovered yesterday I have an eye condition that requires laser surgery in about 2 weeks.
