Roadies, again with Darcy the dog! He was pretty mad again, pulling hard as we made our way from the back of the bunch. Let him have his head along the back of the course and he eventually hit the wall about 1.5km from the finish. He didn't even have enough left to go with Larry and Skye (the other labbies) when they overtook us:-) Plodded home but still quicker than last week.

Short afternoon cycle around Tatton and the Lake.

Summer Series in Tatton, just around the corner from home! Warm and humid this afternoon but decided to attack the hillier section first. Route choice wasn't perfect as I doubled back a few times to get higher value controls. Got all bar 2 on the western side of Plumpton Rd then crossed over and picked up 5 on the eastern side. Poor map reading cost me on one as I ran up the wrong street (Avon Street!). Crossed back over and got a 10 pointer on the west side then back to the finish with time to spare.

This aerial photo is old as there are now houses all around the route on the southern end.

Another morning (in Deni), another dead end run in the forest! Tried the other side of the forest today but only got about 1.5k before the high water in the billabongs turned me back. Ended up going back out and onto the streets to get some distance. Nice morning again, threatening to rain (which it did quite heavily later whilst I was driving to Griffith.

Morning run in Deniliquin State Forest. A run of deadends as the main track was cut by the (rapidly) rising Edward River and then the side track I took just stopped in the forest! Otherwise great conditions for running, cool and just a light breeze.

Morning long run out around the Lake and then through Rawlings Park to Mitchell Rd. Back via Silverwood and Brunskill Rds and then back into Rawlings and around the Lake again.

Slow and steady pace with no real problems but noticing lower backpain after cooling down.
