10 AM

Running 25:00 [2] 4.0 km (6:15 / km) +100m 5:33 / km

Before brunch activation.
Looped through the orchard, round to the back of huatoki domain, which doesn't have any covid19 signs on it - so I take it the small trails are open for running and walking, just not the main gravel road to the horse paddocks.
Trails are nice and slippery after the week's rain. Good fun.

Biking 52:30 [3] 20.3 km (2:35 / km) +180m 2:29 / km

Loop of the block and a bit. Can now confirm that cantlop reserve has no other entrance than The one I found the other day. It really is just a patch of forest, no tracks, fair bit of garden rubbish.

Running 17:30 [2] 2.95 km (5:56 / km) +80m 5:13 / km

Lucked it into a gap in the constant rain. Headed Huatoki way to explore another tiny reserve that way. This one waaaay better than yesterday. Turns out we have a community orchard! Did some exploring in there before returning to the home office.

6 PM

Running 30:30 [3] 5.5 km (5:33 / km) +100m 5:05 / km

Chanced it into another gap in the rain. Just a short one over to South Pukekura. Took my charged headlamp this time. But. Turns out there's a dodgy connection in the cable...so another dark run on the muddy forest trails. Love it! Did a longer loop in Pukekura, using the lit trails where possible.

8 AM

Running 18:00 [2] 3.2 km (5:37 / km) +40m 5:18 / km

Morning jogs, this time to explore Cantlop reserve, which i saw the sign for yesterday. What an odd place, tucked in behind some houses off Carrington. A couple of nice DOC signs pointing the way, but once there, the track died and I was left in a random patch of native bush. reminiscent of Wellington town belt with the houses around using it as a trash site. Just missing a couple of homeless campsites.

5 PM

Running 38:30 [3] 7.1 km (5:25 / km) +105m 5:03 / km

Te Henui and Pukekura S loop. Even duskier in the forest than last night. Definitely time for the headlamp, even though it's a lot of fun running in the near dark.

8 AM

Running 13:00 [2] 2.4 km (5:25 / km) +43m 4:58 / km

It's taken 31 yrs, but all of this being stuck at home might actually be the thing that drives me to take up morning jogs...

Strength and Conditioning 8:00 [1]

5 PM

Running 34:00 [3] 6.15 km (5:32 / km) +90m 5:09 / km

Evening run around Pukekura S. Bit dusky under the trees, might be time to charge up the headlamp. Leg feeling alright. Even after the challenges last weekend.

Note

Evening walk in Pukekura. Also went for a short morning walk to my fave steps...and found another lady doing reps there! She was "only" doing 10...although she called them sprints...i didn't hang around to see how many she actually managed to sprint.

4 PM

Running warm up/down 21:30 [2] 3.9 km (5:31 / km) +40m 5:15 / km

Running hills 40:00 [4] 3.15 km (12:42 / km) +527m 6:55 / km

21 times up and down the Huatoki Kereru-Wheeler place stairs. The associated segment on strava has a little skull in the title, so you know it's dire.
Actually went alright. I practically never run with music, but having read biddy's report on her session earlier in the day, i plugged myself in to try and hold the boredom at bay (and distract from the pain)

4 PM

Biking 1:16:00 [3] 24.1 km (3:09 / km) +300m 2:58 / km

GPS art day. Well, (1) I failed art at school. (2) The streets of New Plymouth are very awkwardly arranged, and well spaced out. (3) There are no forest maps in the region (let alone keeping it local) where there's space to draw my own line course. and (4) It was a non running day, so running to all the local parks and doing little pictures on them was out of the question.

So I settled for the local 4km turtle bike ride. Followed by the rest of my session, coming up with a caption for my art:

"This Easter, the Society Against Leaving out Most Other Natural Egg Laying Loveable Animals (SALMONELLA) wishes to remind you that:
1) Bunnies don't lay eggs.
2) Turtles do

In any case, even without my weak excuses above, there's no way I could have topped Fredo's map of the world. Crazy stuff!
