Dont know what the go was with yesterday but nailed the navigation perfectly today. Was first starter cause i had to help at the event so had to wake up all the controls which was annoying. Only lost 3-4mins i think in minor navigational errors but other than that it was lack of fitness affecting me the most. Got 2nd to Douglas Tullie?? who did 95mins and managed to beat the canadians and the other english guy who was on the course. Had similar km/rate to the kiwis but they were doing the next course down.

Middle distance event at Cascades. Fucking mission and a half for this one. Havent done this bad in ages. It was wet and freezing. Absolutely screwed up the first one with a nice 22min split. Still couldnt get into the map at 2 then sorta hit 3-7 alright then ran past 8. Ran with ian to 9 then my brain started to work and hit everything else perfectly. Got smashed by the kiwis, poms and canadians. Dont think any Qlders did well on this course for some screwed up reason. Had gps on so shall be able to see where the hell i went.

Another gym session.

Usual gym session

Right glute packed it in today so probably not gonna run the rest of this week to make sure everything hopefully fixes up. (i.e. left foot, right calf and glute)

Felt the same as yesterday but legs were tighter. This run was pretty much to test out how much hill strength I've lost since the accident. Felt really slow up the hills but was pushing through at the top which was ok. Normally do it around 25-26ish minutes. Pain in right calf is back again and left foot wasnt as bad today. http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=1056538
