Cycling (MTB) 2:40:00 [2]
Nice bike to and around Albion and back with Bash (For the first bit) and The Gazelle. The trails were in great shape, and we rode it all. The Sugar Shack Shuffle's pretty technical.
Sadly, the only part that was soggy was the new bit of trail we sweated buckets to build. Digging down to the clay may not be the answer, or maybe it needs to dry out further and frim up with use.

Misc (Trail Work) 2:30:00 [2]
More IMBA trail building. Today we were benching the trail- cutting down to the mineral soil and sloping it. Basically 5 hours of hard labour, and after a day and a half with 20 people, we have about 400M done. One crew of 4 spent the whole time rock-armouring a 3M section, and another was trying to make a log ride. At least it was nowhere near as mucky as yesterday.
Cycling (MTB) 1:10:00 [3]
After all that work there was supposed to be a group ride but most people seemed too tired, so I got to be the first to ride the new bit of trail. It's still incomplete, but the bit we got done is very nice with good flow.

Running 2:35:00 [3]
Run to the Dingle with Bulletdog, K/O, Luscious, Boston Rob and the gang. Rob and I continued on to K2 at a decent pace. I did an extra lap after to get some more time on feet.
Misc (Trail Work) 2:00:00 [1]
Went to the IMBA trail-building course at Albion Hills.
Learned some interesting stuff, then out into the rain and muck with the tools. We re-routed the first bit of singletrack in Albion. The first pass flags the trail, the second removes sensitive species like wild leeks and Jack in the Pulpit plants, then the clearing begins. The removed plants are transplanted carefully into the old trail after breaking it up, and then branches and leaf mulch is raked back on. I couldn't recognize trails I've ridden for 5 years!
4 hours of work, but counted half.

Running (commute+) 30:00 [3]
Trot in with the Bulletdog.
Running tempo (Commute) 20:00 [4]
Short of time so I booted it straight home. Had a PB even with the net uphill run home and a heavy pack. Didn't have my HRM so it may have been a 4 or 5.
Running warm up/down 8:00 [1]
Cooldown after a hard run.
