Tough run this morning. Realised hafl way through the run that this was the 5th day straight for exercsie, something I have not done for quite a while (MTB Wed and Thu, running Fri, Sat and now Sun). May have been psychological, but legs dies after this realisation dawned on me. So struggled from Cotton Tree pool to Mooloolaba and back, with the back bit being mostly on the beach. Beautiful morning and really enjoyed the swim afterwards. Am fully exhausted now for the flight home to Paris. Nice to get a dose of sun and Vitamin D for a few days.

Steady run in sunny and humid Maroochydore. Ran from Mum's place near Bradman avenue out to Cotton Tree Park and back. Did faster bits on the way bak - 1 km hard, 2 mins rest, 3 x 2 mins hard/2 mins rest. Followed the course of the Sunshine Coast Marathon for a while and spared a thought for acjase's efforts here earlier in the year!

Easy run around the ridge loop between Mt Ainslie and Mt Majura. Great morning for it, though heating up fast towards the forecast 37 deg! Felt surprisingly good after two days if tough mountain biking.

Fab ride around Mt Stromlo MTB park with Hamish. He took me up Heartbreaker, which lived up to its name - very tough climbing and too technial for me in parts. But loved coming back down the mountain. Great to ride with Hamish again.

Borrowed a mtb from Ian and went out to MtStromlo with Hamish for a great ride. Very hot and exposed on the hill, but well worth the effort.
