street O @ Chapman...

yesterday it was quite wet again underfoot for our walk, the ground just can't soak up any more water...

as street O was at Chapman, I left the bike on my car at home and bused in...I caught the bus back to Woden after work and Jodie drove me home...

conditions were quite cool for street O with a chilly breeze from the north...

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 10.1/72% (apparent temp 8.6)
start time: 6:15pm
total distance: 13.22
total time: 78:38 (official 78:38)
avg pace: 5:57
total calories: 982
avg HR: 143
recovery HR: 105/49
beats per minute: 851

this was a tricky/furstrating one to figure out the best course as there were a few isolated controls...we took in bits of Rivett and Stirling as well...it ended up being our longest course both time- and distance-wise...I could have taken a few more short cuts but that would have been rugged off-road with a high chance of mud!

our order: 8 - 5 - 3 - 4 - 2 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 18 - 17 - 16 - 19 - 15 - 14 - 20 - 7 - 13 - 12 - 6 - 1 - F...

Course A: 18 out of 20 controls

Men
1 Chris Andersen BS-A 63.00

Women
1 Susanne Harrysson BS-A 66.10
2 Bronwyn Calver BS-A 78.38

the next street O is not until 10 October (Turner) due to the Australian Champs in Queensland running from 24 September to 2 October...

it was frosty for the walk this morning but I'm sticking with my shorts...I did however revert to my winter cycling gloves for the ride in!

I think the Lyons magpie must not like the GoPro on my helmet as I didn't get swooped!
