ahr:130 max:149 shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus 20 Black

Nice morning run down to Marshall's Ck and return. Slow coming back as I picked up a lot of discarded plastic cable ties (over 100 in 200m stretch and plenty still there) dumped by the builders of the new levee bank! Tempted to take them to Council but doubt it will do any good.

ahr:129 max:156 spiked:12/14c shoes: Mizuno Wave Diachi

Final bush event on Rocky Hill. Briohny tested us with lots of short climbs up and over the hill but course was good, using a pivot control and a couple of tricky across-slope legs through the rock. Went OK after a poor start, missing #1 high. Long grass was a problem in parts and was on constant alert for snakes. A brown was seen after I'd run, just near the start. Bonus was the event was almost touching distance from our backyard:-)

Out at Connorton where Deb and I collected the last 18 stands, flags and SI units from last Wednesday's Schools Long and RR day 2. Also brought in the water containers and cups (cut it close at one stop with maybe 3 litres of water left!) but didn't Garmin that bit!

ahr:142 max:159 spiked:13/15c shoes: Mizuno Wave Diachi

New map (Racecourse Creek) at Beechworth was a lot more enjoyable than the slog yesterday! A good run with minor misses at 4 and 11. Not fit or fast enough to challenge the leaders so happy with 9th in a strong field. Definitely come back to this map!

Achilles seems to have survived the rigours of 5 races and 2 x 12 hour days of event set up and pull down in the last 9 days, so now to decide if I'll tackle the H&H 22 km trail next Saturday....

ahr:141 max:178 spiked:11/15c shoes: Mizuno Wave Diachi

"Iconic" Kangaroo Crossing and a really physical challenge today in tough terrain and warm conditions. 3 minute errors in the green at 2 (low) and 3 (high) put me behind from the start then a poor route choice with too much climb - changed my mind mid-leg which wasn't clever - and steep descent on the long leg to 4. After that, a wobble at 6 but finished the course pretty well and happy with 10th place (22 minutes behind 1st but only 7 behind 2nd!)

Wasn't at all happy with water on course locations (tracks) as they tendered to dictate route choice, which I feel is wrong! My only water at a control was at 12 (of 15) 500m from the finish!

Despite the hype, I don't think I'll hurry back to this map.

Orienteering (Control collection, Aust ) 1:11:19 [1] 4.86 km (14:41 / km) +44m 14:03 / km
ahr:90 max:139 shoes: Mizuno Wave Diachi

Post Aust Schools Long at Connorton. Actually only spent about 40 minutes and 1 km doing this but, as the Garmin track shows, I forgot to stop my watch!! As Controller, it was an eventful day at times but it all worked out in the end. The major issue, apart from a couple of non-missing (aka didn't start!) runners, was the temperature as it hit 30C quite early in the day. This had an impact particularly on the some of our NZ visitors, with a couple of schools and JIT runners suffering heat-related issues - and it's going to be hotter tomorrow for the Relays. Oh and the Oceania IOF Event Adviser suffered a dislocated finger - not heat related! Feedback on Phil's courses and the terrain was all good:-)
