Orienteering race 50:30 [3] 5.8 km (8:42 / km) +240m 7:13 / km
shoes: Asics Gel-1110
Best result of the week. Lost time on the steep slope at 6 cause i didnt have spikes and spent a while trying to get out of the control. Lost 2mins on 14 from attacking it too low and ending up in the thick shit. Other than that it was good.

Evening smackdown round limestone and queens. Felt like crap cause havent been doing much training due to work. Despite that and a stitch after 1km managed to take 5 secs off my pb so pretty happy. Should be able to do sub 17 now i'm guessing.

Moutain Biking (Gap Ck) 1:16:00 [3]
shoes: Giant XTC 2
Ride at Gap ck with simon and mathieu. Hit up the usual tracks then went up to bronwyns. Spent a while just going between the jumps just before the big wooden berm trying to get shitloads of air. Managed to get about half a metre clearance over the big wood ramp that goes over the massive log without intending too. Somehow was able to hold the landing which was sweet as. Also theres a new log about a metre off the ground at the bottom of brownwyns and its about 10m long. Mat almost face planted into a tree when he stacked it off it.

Run 19:47 [3] 4.36 km (4:32 / km)
shoes: Asics Gel-1110
Jolly's lookout to boombana. Had a ten minute break at the lookout to check out the view then headed back. Legs were feeling heavy from yesterday so just hung on the back of the pack. Then julian decided he'd go hard in the last 2km so put the foot down and tried to catch him whilst overtaking people on a single track. nice run.
Note
Bridget reckons i should log this but i dont think i should so i'll note it. Went on an awesome bush walk which involved walking/ swimming down a gorge near Mt Glorious.

shoes: Asics Gel-1110
Last Street o of the year. Needed a win to tie the series overall but lorenzo, nino and glen winning smashed it about 2mins faster than me so that was that. Was running pretty well tonight, stuffed one bit of route choice up and got lost which cost me a min but other than that was really good. Map became a scrunched up wet ball by the end and was going on map memory cause it was raining that hard. Won me a bottle of wine. http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=1494984

Was bored so decided to see whether i could beat my old bench press record (50kg) and i did. New record is 55kg, only 5kg off my body weight which i think is pretty good.

Round the park
Run intervals 10:17 [5] 3.2 km (3:13 / km)

8X 400m intervals round the limestone grass track with mathieu cause he was in town. 60sec rest between reps with a 3.30min on after the 4th. Had forgotten to time the middle break but heartrate was still round 130. Not the smartest move after a long run but times were consistent. won 5 out of 8 reps which is a good sign.

Just got back from a trip to double island. Really starting to push my attempts at getting paralysed this year. Was on the bodyboard knocking out a decent session when i got dumped by a huge wave. Was moving friggin fast at the time, then the other side of the wave broke and came down on top of me pushing the board under the water. Then i did a full front flip and smashed my forehead on the sand. Managed to end up on my feet but neck and head is sore as now. Freaked mum out when i told her.
Also i won a fishtailing competition in mats car. Mat won best doughy and simon won most stalls.
