Yes very slow. Very very cautious ( and hence very slow) on way to first control as had never been on a gold mining map. Trying to work out how features were mapped. Of course would've been much faster just to run to road and then go more cautiously. Stuffed up number 4, not having enough caution in control circle, easily distraced by others, and had difficulty reading features in the depression ( and there were so many of them, to me, within the control circle area). No major major errors by my standards after that, just my usual sloppiness.

Once I stopped feeling in awe of the extra gold mining features, I really enjoyed them, it was like running in a museum! Noticed my left calf was getting sore and felt tight - put it down to the rowing machine at the gym and particularly to riding a too small bike to town and back on Wednesday including half of old belair road. Bit sore all afternoon.

Cool down.

Event: Easter 2013
 

Medium length prologue 2.9 km. much longer recorded time as on way to start triangle with Leith I decided to shadow him as was different to what he was used to. What a nice place to go to Uni!

Through Bendigo, admiring heritage houses.

Rambly run in light rain around Hawthorndene, through pine forest and back along Turners collecting native flowers for Boof.

To a course in town and return. After frustrations with usual bikes chain yesterday I rode an old bike of bryns with a small frame and shorter than usual cranks. Legs so sore by bottom of old Belair rd I pushed bike all way to james rd, then hopped back on.

To course in town and return.

Cherry gardens to Scott creek and part of return. Highest heart rate was reached leading Alfie along busy narrow section and he decided he'd had enough of the crazy trucks and took off and I ended up letting go of him and Callum . Not much fun.

Logging part of lesson.

Nice ride home too. Calm.

Can feel my shoulders ache now after rowing machine.

In park with Callum
