Mt coottha. Forest was quite clear but the course was up and down all the hills. Legs were tired after yesterday.
One mistake - read 13 to 14 instead of 3 to 4. My excuse is that a bird shat on my hand and map going into 3 and i was more worried about cleaning it off than reading where i was.

Long run in border ranges np. Went for a day out on Dan's new bike. He bribed me with a run opportunity, but unfortunately by the time the run was done we had no time for a pub lunch.

Run started at the caldera rim and heading down one creek, a couple of ks on the road into the next valley. Run went from 1100m to 350m with a short sharp 150m gain on the road. The track was ok but little used, slippery and overgrown. Nice day out in the rainforest.

ride to work as car was still being fixed.

Anzac park run with my new head torch, which isn't really bright enough for trails. Felt surprisingly good running but back has tightened up a bit since.

Easter Day 3. nothing left today. struggled from the start. Tash caught me at 1 and we stuffed around together in the creek for the next few, and I just stopped and let her go cos it was just more than I could concentrate with. lost a bit of time stopping to early on the rocky knoll after the creek as well. Lost a heap of time over the run, but had done enough to stay in 3rd.
