C • Minimum run 9

Event: Sydney Sprint Series #7
 

Monday sprints at Gladesville hospital. Felt like it had been a bit scrappy so didn’t expect beat Undy or Lisa, but I guess I made pretty good route choices. Looked to see if could get through greenhouses near 3 but couldn’t, overshot passage through buildings 5 to 6, wobbled a bit deciding route choice across oval, got slowed down at crossable but high wall near ~15. Had to stop to refold map in the dodgy sheet protector map bag as Stix came past, then sprained ankle trying to burn him off down to 2nd last control. Not too badly.

Sprint7 - Splits

We’d promised kids an ice cream on this weekend and since it was Sunday evening and the icecream van hadn’t shown I cycled up to the Lane Cove shops, bought a pck from Woolies and cycled back. Enjoyed the escape.

Fairylands loop with Anthea. Proud of myself for not succumbing to her request to run on the road.

The day was mostly sunny but I ran through the pouring rain and lightning to Lane Cove pool. Took Tiia and a friend “swim training” to see if they would be able to manage 50m in the upcoming school swim carnival. As Stix had decided to come with the boys there was no room left in the car for me…and we had to go then because the friends’ mum was meeting us there to pick her up at 3… so I had to run but I guess I was going to get wet anyway. The girls will make the distance but not at speed, so it remains to be seen if Tiia will front up to the starting blocks on Thurs.

C • Would she beat me? 4

Ran up to last bus stop in town.

Filled in for Mowbray Magic team in their last 6-a-side game of season. Good effort with one player down. Shame my shots at goal were too weak and that our goalie let a weak one of theirs slip through. Wet ball didn't help. So they finished the season with no wins. An exhausting match - we had just 2 forwards and 2 backs and were always having to run around to cover each other.
