Event: MTB Orienteering - Pickering Brook
 

Really slow pootle around Pickering Brook - I wasn't feeling too energetic and only needed to finish since no other girls do the long course. Barely raised a sweat. Pretty clean run - navigating is super-easy when you are going that slowly (and of course the map was super-accurate which makes it easier too!). Took one longer route because someone was trying to race me and I wasn't in the mood. I got beaten by someone I've never heard of.

Long course - Splits

Bushwalk with Dangerman and Cricket (they sound like superheroes!) from Serpentine. There were heaps of waterfalls along the valley.
Really good fun and especially nice just to get out of the house.

I must still be sick, I made a monumental scheduling stuff-up which could only be due to illness. Still a bit vomity but otherwise ok.
Went to a surprisingly useful mental health teaching day and learned how to counsel psych patients:

Back at work, yay.

Today I left the house! Back to sleep for the afternoon now, ready for my third attempt at going back to work tomorrow.

But not as sick today! I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. This morning I woke up and felt like getting out of bed. Nice.

Walked from the car to the hill, then one rep up the hill, then down again after a long rest.
Feeing pretty confident about Caffeinated after our team performance this evening. I toasted myself walking once up a hill. John also walked once up the hill, and on the way managed to injure himself. Fletch and tRicky got lost on the warmup, Fletch went for a further jog in the rifle range in preference to running up a hill and tRicky nearly got stuck in the razor wire, and nearly got himself killed by bowling Meg over twice.

C • The track is too narrow 45
