Paddy Pallin 6hr rogaine at the Old Orroral Tracking station. Teamed up with Dad and we came 6th overall! Amazing effort from Dad at 70; he walks so fast I feel like I need to run - reminded me of Ewan running beside me! We kept a steady pace by jogging some of the flats and downhills. Made one proper nav error on the first control - looks like we lost about 10min - which was embarrassing but more or less nailed everything else. 1st rogaine completed and was great fun!

3 x 10m tempo behind Ainslie. Pleased to average 4.11/km and 4.06/km relatively comfortably. Nearly pulled the pin because a little tightness on lateral side of left ankle. So far I'm pleased with the choice; no achilles side-effects and it was one of those great runs when you feel energised afterwards.

Very easy with some dynamic stretches.
