Not quite sure why I entered the longer course, but managed it OK. Fun course with lots of nice running sections. Saw a variety of people through the course. Caught Mark at 1, then saw him again plus Paula at 2. Decided not to get dropped by them running the track to 3 so took a bit of a crazy route, slow but happy enough. Saw Nea leaving 3 (the wrong way) she caught back up at 4. Ross Stewart caught me at 3 and I saw him on and off for most of the rest of the course. I was by myself at 8 and 9 but Paula re-caught me at 10. She went a different way to 12 but we got there together. Finally she ran away from me on the nice downhill from 13 -14-15 - finish.

A bit of checking for course setting and mapping MTBO. Rode some really nice single tracks, plus one really awful one. Don't think I ever want to Romper Room again. Have now done once down and once up and neither is doable with my skills :). All the rest was great fun. Cold after!

A very chilly run with Nat. Cold before you added the wind chill bonus! Better than last night though (I.e. not raining). Snow on the mountains so quite pretty when we could see them. Got a few crampy bits, likely from being so cold.

Wednesday lunchtime at Bruce Ridge. A bit cold and showery but did not notice while running. Lots of orchids out!

Jogged across to Questacon to get a street series map. Not enough time to do the event this morning...plus a bit tired.
