Lap around Manly Dam with Ewan, one of his friends and their dad. No problems for the first half, except for being very rusty and wary of drop offs that Ewan took in his stride. Aggravated my back coming up the steep fire trail climb, probably pulling too hard and being crouched over the bars. Slow coming back and was glad to take the road option.

CATI at Blackman Park.
No real route choice but good to get out. Hot start to the day.

Event: Australian Middle Distance/Relay Championships
 

Down to Sydney Park to take some pictures of the pink snails but too many kids around (it was a different story yesterday!). Followed by random running around the park taking in as many undulations as possible and also off-road.

Decidedly wet and windy when I headed out, thankfully the rain eased up a bit during the run but came back with avengeance at the end. Two laps of Sydney park with a added bit on each lap over the third (mini) pap. Highlights were a kingfisher, royal spoonbill and, on top of the hill, two giant (2m) pink snails!
EDIT: just loaded the GPS trace and yet again the start was way out.
