Cycling 3:00:00 [2] 50.0 mi (3:36 / mi)
Woo, long cycle ride with Jess out to the Vale of the White Horse. This would have been a wonderful ride in nice weather. But it was absolutley atrocious. Heavy rain, heavy wind and not warm. Brrrrr.... my feet were numb for at least a full half hour afterwards!
Happy thing, is I have pedals/shoes now, which makes the cycling more fun for sure. I'm comfy clipping out of the pedals, clipping in is still more difficult, so annoying to go through town.

Running warm up/down 13:00 [1]
Good warm up before steeplechase- finally my time! Really tiring to just wait around all day til my event!
Running race 7:01 [5] 2.0 km (3:31 / km)
Varsity 2k steeplechase
Won by 20 seconds, PB'ed, set a new varsity match record, but unfortunately didn't quite squeeze under the 7 min mark. It was super windy (track times were really slow generally) and I had to overtake two of the seconds girls through the last water jump, which definitely slowed me down. Still a good race, and a good one to finish on! They even gave me the Most-Outstanding-Female-Performace of the Match award! Very honored with that.

Swimming 3:30 [1]
Bah! Forgot both my goggles and swim cap. Attempted a swim anyways, but aborted after 200m of being blind and having my hair in my face every breath- really not the most pleasant!

Running warm up/down 12:00 [1]
Warm up, including demanding a spanner from the front desk (to make the water jump the right height), and setting out some hurdles for the other barriers- not bothering to reset them all!
Some warming down, but just a bit, before heading in and helping Graeme with his 2k.
