MTB - O race (Groenkloof) 1:06:38 [5] *** 23.2 km (20.9 kph) +274m
spiked:18/18c slept:6.0 weight:77kg shoes: Specialized Epic Comp 2006

First MTB-O race of the season. Had a good ride on a longish course. Posted distance was about 20km, but it turned out to be closer to 24km. Fumbled the map at the start for 20s, then went out hard. Managed to read almost the entire course to #1 as it was a straight-forward long easy leg. Some tough climbs in places, but kept riding the whole way, mostly in big blade. No mistakes apart from 5s at a junction where I started off the wrong way. Good speed to the end, so managed 1st. Brian G 2nd at 1h15 and Alex 1h17 after an early (very) puncture.

- Map copy race, copying down a course from a Danish map to a blank one, with the maps about 10m apart.
- Interval training, 250-500-750m pyramid with 90s rest between intervals. Raced them off in pairs.

Road Running (Randburg TT) 21:02 [4] 5.0 km (4:12 / km)
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 2007

Quickish time trial. Went fast, but not flat out. Breathing and HR were still great at the finish, so it's really the legs that need speedwork. The sports field was soaking wet from all the weeks of heavy rain.
