Best run of the weekend for 3rd place on the day but still managed a few stupid errors, loosing about 4 minutes over the last 5 controls (including my nemisis, #10 again). Climbed up to 4th place overall but well back from the top 3 of Bernard, Grant and Russell but that is a very fair reflection on our comparative form and fitness! Runnability in some areas today (1,2 and 7,8) was almost non-existent with the amount of storm damage trees on the ground but most of the course was open and fast! Course distance was 5.5km, Garmin 6.96km.

C9 Day 4 - Splits

Another poor effort mainly around poor map reading and failing to stick to a plan. Especially the case on 10 (again) where Iost map contact and was very lucky to come out in the right place. Russell caught me here by 8 minutes which did surprise me a bit as I didn't think I had lost that much but he is running well. Course distance 5.5km, Garmin. 7.03.

C9 Day 3 - Splits

Poor start to Easter with a couple of minor errors and one big one costing me about 7 minutes all up. Terrain was pretty good except for fallen timber which slowed progress. Big error was on 10 where I went to far left. Relocated fairly quickly but lost maybe 4 minutes! Course distance 5.6km, Garmin 6.3.

C9 Day 2 - Splits

Event: Frazzle Rock Easter 2011
 

Fun bush sprint event on a rocky hillside. Generally pretty good with a slight overrun at 8 and stopped short on 12. Was hoping the clear running terrain would be same for the remainder of the weekend but no.... Course distance 2.5km, Garmin 2.73.

Day 1 (Prologue) Long - Splits

No training time today. Drove to Albury for a meeting then flew to Sydney. Landed at 5:30pm and got off the plane at 8:15pm!! My flight got stuck in the "security incident" that closed Terminal 2 so we had to sit in the plane on the tarmac for 2hrs 45mins! I guess there are a lot of worse things that could happen to me on a plane :-)
