Training Log Archive: Golfer

Morning ride out to the Boat Club, past the Lake and across Rawlings Park to Brunskills Rd and back again. Had a couple of stops to chat to a few people, including a friend bird spotting (feathered varierty!) so a bit slow. I was inspired after that to see how many different birds species I could count and made 17.

Same run as yesterday (yep, running 2 days in a row!). Out early to beat the oncoming heat (and before work). Won't push my luck and will be back on the bike tomorrow - will go early again as it is due to hit 37 here tomorrow and 39 Sunday/Monday.

Just looked at the week long temperature forecast for Wagga:

Sat 36, Sun 37, Mon 37, Tues 37, Wed 42, Thurs 40, Fri 42: glad I'll be in Sydney for the Test from Wednesday!

Deniliquin is worse: 40, 44, 42, 44, 43, 42, 42.........

Morning run: managed a bit further today, down to the Boat Club and return at a slow but steady pace. Using the elastic knee support helped a lot and pulled up OK. It's actually quite difficult getting used to the mechanics of running again, after such a long break. The extra weight from not eating any less for the last 5 months probably doesn't help either!

Christmas morning cycle around Lake Albert. Met Briohny coming the other way (on foot) so turned around and kept her company (and moving at a good pace) back home.

Decided to try the "real" bike this morning. A lap of the Lake from home. A bit windy but a nice ride and felt good.
