Bike (MTB) 2:00:00
shoes: Specialized Rockhopper
Glenrock on a sunny morning.
In at the road to the waterworks, then clockwise on the main single tracks until hitting the main entry point on gun club road.
Started chatting with a couple there who invited me to join them for a loop.
This was just what I needed as I stayed out for longer than would have motivated to do by myself, and it also encouraged me to try to push myself a little in places. The couple (Paul and Ann-Marie, i think) turned out to be adventure racers, so hopefully I'll bump into them again sometime in the near future.

Event: NSW Middle & Long Champs
4 PM
Other (Hurling) 1:00:00
Met up with a bunch of people for a 'puck about' in Lambton Park.
Had no idea in advance just how intense this might be, so didn't do usual Saturday morning training session.
Very relaxed affair as it turned out, so I will do other training earlier in the day the next time.

Another extremely busy day.
Late notice of a meeting in Sydney tomorrow meant I had to stay back and try to get tomorrows planned work done today instead.
Neck and upper back not in great state when I eventually made it home.
Still no word on the exchange (for house). grrr

Run race 10:44 [5] 3.0 km (3:35 / km)
shoes: Mizuno Wave Musha
Usual Tuesday track.
Managed my diet better today, so no stitch and able to run a worthy pace.
With Nick and 2 others most of the way. They were pulling away (up to 20m) whilst we were between 600m to go and 200m to go. However a final push and hard kick up the home straight let me 'gub' the three of them.
Snipped another 3 seconds off the massive pb set 4 weeks ago.
