FkF #297...

yesterday I opted to have a little sleep in instead of walking Hodge knowing that he had dog school that night...

just I was getting my bike ready I noticed I had a flat back tyre so I whipped that tube out and put a patched up tube in...made me a bit later than I intended...

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 15.4/68% (apparent temp same)

avg HR: 135

gym at lunch and exercises out of order again...keeps it fresh I guess!

would you believe my tyre was flat again?...I ditched that tube and put a brand new one in...again this made me late again so I had to rush to have a shower and get Hodhe to school...

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 29.9/18% (apparent temp 28.0)

fortunately Hodge was really good and I made it to class on time...we are started to work through the things we need to be able to do for assessment night (27 November)...there's three things which we must be able to do and then there's 9 other items, of which we must get at least 7 passes...

this morning I was back to getting up early to walk Hodge...you could already feel how warm the day was going to get...

didn't quite crack 40 on the ride to work to break this week's streak...I had a slim chance but then got caught at the 2nd last set of traffic lights...

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 20.2/46% (apparent temp same)

it was very warm and windy for FkF...which, combined with some soreness in my left heel, made for a slow time as I was nearly 2mins slower than last week...Thomo ran with me for most of the second half as we chatted about cricket etc...

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 33.9/18% (apparent temp 32.0)
start time: 12:27pm
total distance: 5.00
total time: 26:41
avg pace: 5:20
total calories: 283
avg HR: *

splits: 4:47, 5:06, 5:27, 5:32, 5:50

* no heart rate stats as I clipped the transmitter in upside down, d'oh!

I think it's going to be a pretty warm ride home...but at least I don't have to rush today!

tomorrow I have golf and then Sunday I'm in Bowral for the 3rd ODI between Australia and the West Indies (10am start)...Australia lead the 4 match series 2-0...
