Event: Foot-O - Two Day Classic
 

Started well then at 5 made the first of a number of blunders on this side of the hill - by just not reading the map right and choosing the wrong pile of rocks. To 6 in retrospect I headed over a saddle I did not need to and wondered why I could see a dam infront of me when there should not have been. Fortunately I corrected quickly and lost only a minute. Over the hill to 8 I got distracted by another runner and picked the wrong ridge line and totally confused - nothing fitted. (an 8 min mistake). The remainder was slow to avoid further big mistakes.

Expert 3 - Splits

Cold morning forced extra layers and the conundrum that going faster made you colder and hotter at the same time. Headed south into a discouraging headwind and not a lot of enthusiasm. Only started to feelconfortable after 40m. Managed to get lost just north of Coogee. Apparently a dodgy looking path to the beach was also the continuation of the bike path south. Managed to catch up with the Frogs and then returned to Cott at a good pace with Ken Post.

Walking in sand dune and limestone country looking at a potential map north of Perth with Alex Tarr.

Played well but ended up with tight ITB

Coastal ride after it warmed up and the road dried. Returned home to hear I am now a grandfather.

6.00am start for hockey state side trials. Fantastic sunrise. Solid work out
