Wow - three runs in a week and 5 in 9 days. No wonder my body feels like crap.
11 AM
NOY race 59:03 [3] 4.4 km (13:25 / km) +110m 11:56 / km
NOY1 @ Brush Creek (Medium Hard)
Calculated time lost: 2:33 (+4.5%)
Was hoping to go pretty well today but that didn't eventuate. While I could have navigated a tad better that again wasn't my main problem. Could run only a couple of hundred metres at a time at best. Truley stuffed on the hills. Very humid and warm conditions not helping. I was expecting the fact I ran a PB at parkrun yesterday might mean I was getting fitter. Perhaps I overdid it then. Fairly tough fasting hasn't helped but it is working.
Must congratulate Mapgirl as the attackpoint splits say she didn't lose any time on any leg on the Short Hard course. Pretty handy time for her and I was worried she might have beaten me on min/km rate, but I still pipped her slightly as I did JL.
LeepBax had a great time and had Nana come along and mind him seeing the event was not far from her place.

Newy Park Run 32:36 [3] 5.0 km (6:31 / km)
Newy Parkrun
LeepBax and I ran a PB. Yippee, cut 25 seconds off our best. Mapgirl really deflated our egos by scoring a whopping 52 second PB. Was surprised because when we met after she turned we seemed to be a lot closer to the turn ourselves. Apparently she had a huge homerun while we faded after a pretty good out leg. Maybe soon we'll combine a good out together with a good return.
Will miss next week due to Easter competition at Bendigo.

8 PM
Club Minor 41:53 [3] 4.4 km (9:31 / km)
Club Night champs @ Rathmines.
Enjoyed the event and Sam's course. Thought good use of the area was employed. Felt I was running OK but my time suggests otherwise. Didn't feel as bad as other recent events but that was probably due to the lack of climb. Perhaps the nigth made me feel quicker. I always remember running around the yard at night and thinking I was going much faster. Is that a common phenomenon or just me.
Didn't have much trouble until towards the end when I lost about a minute on number 17 (on the waters edge) as I overshot it. I was looking on the concrete embankment until I decided to actually read the control descriptions, something I rarely did on this course) and found it was an earth embankment. Also had a bit of trouble on the last one, which seems to be the most commonly mucked up control of the night.
Too late for LeepBax so he and Mapgirl stayed home.
