Long morning ride. At one point after 30km or so I thought there was something wrong with the bike coz it felt like I was towing an anchor. Turns out I was just going uphill into a headwind :)

Generally felt good, easy apart from getting really hungry near the end

Didn't set alarm this am. Too tired. Almost got out for a ride in the evening, then almost got the exercise bike inside. Ended up just watching sport on telly.

Ride to pick up bus for trip to Kalbarri. Was going to ride home too, but got a slow puncture and it was getting late and I was too annoyed with the world to ride home

Had a pretty interrupted night's sleep so ignored the alarm and ran straight to school, cutting out the interval session tat was meant to be in the middle of it.

Ride out Mullewa rd to lookout then back to Wooree and cut through to school. Thought I would be struggling to make it in time after pushing into a gale the whole way out (averaged 20 for first 25km) but it felt great flying back towards town with the breeze behind.
Right knee a bit sore on medial side of patella from run yesterday...

Long run to school. Unlike 2 weeks ago I made no effort to start faster. Don't know if it was because it was cooler (had to get going quickly to warm up), becasue my achilles weren't real tight so I could stride out from the start, or because I'm coming off a really easy week of training, but today felt really easy.
Started and finished with tight spots in right quad and left hammy, but just felt like I was cruising the whole way. Happy.
Don't feel like such a gumby when I'm running compared to paddle and MTB
