#234

it was a windy old ride in this morning...I was literally getting pushed sideways, almost too dangerous to ride given I use the on-road cycle lanes...bet I don't have a tailwind on the way home either!

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 9.0/56% (apparent temp 4.8)
start time: 8:11am
total distance: 12.04
total time: 35:17 (including 3:23 stopped time)
avg speed: 20.5kph
total calories: 390
avg HR: 141

my slowest ride into work in quite some time...it was definitely like resistance training!

this didn't bode well for a decent time at FkF but I went for it anyway...I had to switch my cap to rally style otherwise who knows where it could have ended up!

there was a decent turn out despite the weather although no Tim and no SG (who would have been starting at the same time as me)...

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 13.7/32% (apparent temp 10.9)
start time: 12:31pm
total distance: 5.05
total time: 22:16
avg pace: 4:24
total calories: 290
avg HR: 162

splits: 4:07, 4:29, 4:30, 4:30, 4:29, 0:10

I'm surprised my heartrate wasn't higher as I was certainly working hard!

this was my 6th sub 23 time in my current streak and rated =16th on my FkF rankings...

I'm looking forward to the rugby league test tonight - yesterday we upgraded to a corporate box and managed to sell our original tickets...

tomorrow I have my long run before golf...

Sunday is the first match of the season (just in case, I haven't said it enough!)...bring it on!
