Running race (Road Runners) 33:09 [5] 6.76 km (4:54 / km) +7m 4:53 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 15 yellow

Roadies January handicap race at Wagga Beach. Was off at 11 minutes and made steady progress but didn't really catch anyone on the longer course until near the halfway mark. Then picked off a few earlier starters as i tried to pick up the pace. Got passed by a few of the back markers but not until the last few hundred metres. I feel the Sprint races in Canberra last weekend have improved my fitness level.

Orienteering race (Summer Series #4) 44:24 [5] *** 8.3 km (5:21 / km) +48m 5:12 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 16 Blue

Street O at Glenfield Park. Very good course by first-time setter Angela. Opted to go around the outside and get all the 20 pointers. Picked up a number of 10's and a couple of 5's on the way past for 180 total. Warm and humid ahead of a thunderstorm that held off long enough for everyone to get round and to pack everything up. Time is correct from SI but forgot to stop the Garmin so distance is a guestimate.

Orienteering race (Sprint Canberra Race 5) 20:15 [5] *** 3.35 km (6:02 / km) +13m 5:55 / km
spiked:13/15c shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 16 Blue

Race 5 on ANU South. Another very good course, with more climb than the previous day. Slow route on 3 when I couldn't read the detail to see the quicker route to the right and went left up the stairs. Big error on 4, not reading that the approach had to be from the back of the building, losing about 2 minutes. The rest was good but didn't have the speed after all the hard runs. A great weekend of races!!

Orienteering race (Sprint Canberra Race 3) 23:29 [5] *** 3.19 km (7:21 / km) +55m 6:46 / km
spiked:13/15c shoes: Merrell Fuse Trail

Race 3 at Stromlo Forest Park. Best run of the weekend, with a small miss on 1 and then slightly over ran 12. 7th place today was much more satisfying.

5 PM

Orienteering race (Sprint Canberra Race 4) 21:34 [5] *** 3.83 km (5:38 / km)
spiked:18/20c shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 16 Blue

Race 4 on ANU North map. First time on ANU and a great course in great area! Only misses were on 6 where the circle line covered the "no-way" through the building, leading to a long run around - lots of people caught out there! A bit confused going to 15 when running with Mark Shingler (think I confused him too!) Happy with run although a little further down than I had hoped as fitness started to fade on 4th hard run in 3 days.

spiked:18/22c shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 16 Blue

Race 2 at Radford College. A generally poor run with many little hesitations that added up to quite a few minutes. Biggest was at 13 when didn't read the description and ended up at the bottom of the wall.

Event: Sprint Canberra

5 PM

Orienteering race (Sprint Canberra Race 1) 18:37 [5] *** 2.93 km (6:21 / km) +16m 6:11 / km
spiked:16/19c shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 16 Blue

Race 1 at CIT. A pretty good run ruined by stupid error late on. Good in the bush and early in the campus but didn't read the locked gate at 9 meaning a double back and loss of about 1 minute. Fastest split out of spectator control to 11 and good until went to 16 before 15, then went 17 -19, completely missing 18 for a DNF. Was in 9th place at 17.....

Easy-paced morning run in West Wyalong. North on streets then into some bush, west onto some dirt roads until I hit the railway line then south and west back into town past the TAFE, before zig zagging through some parks back to the motel.

Running 24:41 [3] 4.01 km (6:09 / km) +1m 6:08 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 16 Blue

Short and slow morning run in Deniliquin forest, with a short detour into the golf course for a drink of water. After Wednesday's scorching 45 degrees, it was a very nice 20ish this morning. Quite a few branches and trees down after the wind storm last night, including one that almost blocked the motel driveway.

Morning run down to the beach and return. Met Phil Roy as I was going through the cemetery, first time I've seen anyone else running through there! We ran together to the beach, nice to have some company. I then came back as he was going on further.

Note

A first for me this afternoon at golf: an eagle on a par 4: 8 iron from about 135m, nicely onto the green and rolled right into the cup! That's 2 a 5 in stableford scoring.

7 AM

Running race (Road runners) 34:01 [4] 6.8 km (5:00 / km) +13m 4:57 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 16 Blue

Faster run than I had planned, running with Dave and Craig until the drinks stop, where I stopped and they didn't. Tried to catch them again but couldn't get the necessary speed (with heart rate maxed at 130, not getting enough oxygen!).
