Now that Frazzle is over time to concentrate on getting some Kms into the legs before the cycling trip to Brittany in June / July

Down around the bay and out to Windance bridge, a steady Easterly just for a change and shared the Matilda Bay section with someone at around 30km/hr

C • Cycling to Brittany 1

Pushed into the wind and was overtaking bikes along the Matilda Bay path no one stayed on.

Event: Marginata (Australian Middle Distance Champs)
 

Middle Distance Champs.

Tried to run hard up the hill and across to the far side and managed to stay close the the W21E until the last bit, down onto the control was fine and saw the big rock before the control. #2 was hard to get through the sticks but managed to keep the line and came off the rock surfs below the control

#3 was up hill and tried too hard and got off line and overshot to the rock surfaces behind and had to find the control back down, lost a minute or so here and never saw Nigel who I think got through at this point.

#4 got into the rock below and had to come back up

5, 6 & 7 were fine

Out of 7 I thought I was running up the broad gully but was north of the line and was confused and could not fit the map, found a control on a rock surface and worked out where I was and then got back on track but lost 2-3 minutes

finished quite strongly

Ended up about 6th or 7th and not too far off the pace

Course 5 - Splits

Event: NavDash 5 - Mandurah (Australian Sprint Championships)
 

Missed COntrol 5!

Otherwise quite a good run but was caught by the big wall at #10 and lost 30-60sec

Still not fast enough for a place

Ride to work via Windance bridge, a bit cool but a nice ride and still quiet with manay people on holiday this week.

Was going to ride the Piave but it had a flat which will now need to be fixed.
