Event: Frazzle Rock Easter 2011
 

Easter prologue. Heart started playing up as soon as I got to the start area. Not a big problem for the first few controls but struggled once I started going up some hills. Lost about 30 seconds on the cliff before the spectator control. Wasn't certain of where I was coming down the hill but did stop and look at the right cliff. Didn't see the control so headed down towards the fence to relocate then saw it on the way back up after finally checking the description and seeing it was at the western foot just out of sight from where I first stopped.

Day 1 (Prologue) Long - Splits

Thought I should remind myself how to run. Just to Moola Rd and back with a few drills and strides. Felt pretty good.

C • Left right 1

Wasting away. Down 5.1kg since I stopped training. Didn't think I had that much muscle to lose.

C • I have 4

Event: Hill Park Dale
 

Aborted attempt at running the H3 at Hill Park Dale.
Not feeling very interested at the start but went ok up to 4 but when it wasn't there I kind of lost interest. Spent 10 minutes finding the control and trying to decide what to do about it. Ended up leaving the control where it was and putting a drinking cup on a stick where it should have been. Carried on to 7 but wasn't really into it so headed back from there to tell the organisers about number 4.

Prologue training course. Pretty good through the easy stuff up to 8 then a poor approach to 9 put me a bit behind with the navigation and I was very scrappy through 10 and 11 before finishing off ok. Heart getting a bit unsettled towards the end but not a major problem.
