Running race (Brooks hill time trial) 52:08 [4] 10.0 km (5:13 / km)
ahr:154 max:175 shoes: Brooks Adreneline GTS7

Felt hot and humid today although a lovely morning. Tried to keep the pace up for me and managed to get under 53 which is good for me. managed to keep running all the way up Brooks Hill and was able to put the pace on somewhat in the last kilometre back to the beach.

Swimming (Gossy Pool) 42:20 [3] 2.0 km (21:10 / km)
ahr:101 max:149

Heart rate measures dodgy again. Battery is getting low.I'll have to send it off to the watch place soon. Felt like a tough swim today and didn't break the 42 minutes. Also got a thump in the ribs form a swimmer doing backstroke and going in the opposite direction. Felt better for doing the swim though. Still aiming to get the 100m below 2:10 managing mostly. Probably should be aiming for under 2:05 for each lap(100m).

Swimming (Gosford Pool) 43:03 [3] 2.0 km (21:32 / km)
ahr:141 max:159

Warm afternoon for a well needed swim although I did not feel very energetic to begin with and the time was a bit slow. Low mood day contributed I think to the slower time.

Running warm up/down (Slow run) 45:59 [2]
ahr:132 max:160 shoes: Brooks Adreneline GTS7

Slow run a few stops and starts checking out a new area for orienteering with Nick at Norah Head for the summer street series. Quite a few sand dunes covered with vegetation so good for learning to run in heavy sandy terrain and quite a few features. Soldiers Beach was nice for a refreshing dip afterwards too. Potentially a good area with a mix of beach bush and streets

Running (Erina bush Run) 1:22:53 [3] 12.6 km (6:35 / km)
ahr:143 max:163 shoes: Brooks Adreneline GTS7

Nice run on a lovely morning. Out to Erina Fair up to Kincumba Mountain and pack through paddock and back to beach.

Swimming 41:47 [3] 2.0 km (20:54 / km)

Interrupted swim today. Stopped to talk to Nick when he'd finished his 1 km. Paused my watch so not in my time. Then at the 1.05 mark the lifeguard stopped me to tell me that the synchronised swimming were coming and could I move over a lane. Dutifully did this in the next 100 and for the rest of the swim ...and although they set the pool up for the synch swimmers didn't see them in the pool!
Felt strong today and the interruptions seemed to help me put in harder over the total swim because still got under 42 minutes.

Tuesday Oct 16, 2007 #

Swimming 42:34 [3] 2.0 km (21:17 / km)

Hot day and a busy pool but managed to get the swim in without bumping into anyone else.

Saturday Oct 13, 2007 #

Running (Dingo Run TT) 56:52 [3] 9.0 km (6:19 / km)
ahr:140 max:158 slept:5.5 shoes: Brooks Adreneline GTS7

Slow run out towards Kincumba Mountain. Dingo today that is 30 minutes out and turn around. Lovely morning for it. Got back for presentations today and received my 200 runs with Terrigal Trotters jumper -bright yellow!
Nice coffee at Indulganze.

Swimming 42:34 [3] 2.0 km (21:17 / km)

Good swim at Mingara pool before Trivia. Terrible score for Trivia ..part of the Brains trust was absent though and too many music questions just ruined our chances. HR not working properly so not bothering to record.

Orienteering race (oceania relays) 38:51 [3] *** 3.9 km (9:58 / km) +95m 8:53 / km
ahr:117 max:200 spiked:9/10c shoes: Jalas O shoes

Stuffed up long leg at the end. got sucked into wrong gully system and took about 5-6 minutes relocating...very annoying. Our team came second. Debbie had a great run. All courses slightly different in the beginning. Good carnival and very enjoyable!

Orienteering long (Oceania Champs) 1:11:43 [4] *** 4.4 km (16:18 / km) +200m 13:17 / km
ahr:152 max:205 spiked:9/12c shoes: Jalas O shoes

Something not right with HR but recorded anyhow. Did Ok to number 4 then stuffed up downhill leg not being able to judge how far down the hill I'd travelled and pulling up to soon. Next couple of legs alright and happy with navigation until 11 in green on last hill overshot it and ended up too high. Was also looking for it on NE side and eventually found it on more the north side. scrappy on last too. Could have done at least 15 minutes faster if I'd not made those errors. Ended up 4th not really deserved.

Orienteering race (Sprint) 17:14 [4] **** 1.5 km (11:29 / km)
ahr:126 max:181 spiked:16/18c shoes: Brooks Adreneline GTS7

Sprint race a bit slow at number three lost time here due to going the wrong way. Also forgot to tie laces in double know and lost time from 7-8. Otherwise good run. Off the pace though due to errors.

Wednesday Oct 3, 2007 #

Orienteering race (schools relay) 26:02 [3] 3.3 km (7:53 / km) +90m 6:57 / km
shoes: Jalas O shoes

Very hot and windy day.Felt dried out before I started. Watched the Aussie schools lose to the NZ unfortunately. Must do something about the schools sport rule which says can't pick from the students who did not compete in the school champs. May not have made a lot of difference, the nzers are very strong.
Reasonable run but found it difficult in the heat and dry air.

Tuesday Oct 2, 2007 #

Bike warm up/down (recreation) 3:00:00 [3]

Went for a bike ride from the yellow sub around the lake and ended up at the Floriade for coffee,visited the warm memorial avenue to look at the various memorials to the nurses and others. Nick got dived bombed by a magpie! Nice coffee in the Floriade. Managed to get a stick in my wheel just around the corner from the yellow sub.

Orienteering race (ACT middle distance champ) 33:26 [3] *** 2.7 km (12:23 / km)
ahr:144 max:219 spiked:13/17c shoes: Jalas O shoes

Lost a bit of time on a couple but much better than yesterday. Came 4th behind C Jackson, Sue Neve and Mary McDonald. Lost time on 13 was tired and lacked confidence.
