street O @ Hackett with a little bit of Ainslie...

yesterday it was quite pleasant for our walk...the magpie near the school is still swooping Hodge but ignoring me and Hunter...

street O was at Hackett so I parked my car at the EPIC park & ride and bused in...

the bike shop contacted me after lunch to say the BR was ready so I picked it up and parked it in the bike cage at work, I'll take it home on Friday...

I used a new driving service to get from work to my car - J U B E R...very punctual, even early, but a bit pricey!

conditions were good for street O with our goal to collect all 20 controls as usual...

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 12.1/67% (apparent temp 10.5)
start time: 6:15pm
total distance: 8.38
total time: 49:17 (official 49:30)
avg pace: 5:53
total calories: 623
avg HR: 142
recovery HR: 99/56
beats per minute: 835

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

we had a couple of long legs as the controls were spaced out and even used a bit of Ainslie...there were also a couple of deceptive uphills that I know Jodie really appreciated!

Course A: 18 out of 20 controls

Men
1 Martin Dent RR-A 27.32 (skipped 1 & 9)
2 Florian Benz 40.56
3 Chris Andersen BS-A 43.36v 4 Ray Ellett 50.04
5 Tate Needham RR-A 51.46

Women 1 Clare Lonergan BS-A 46.23 (skipped 2 & 18 but covered nearly as much distance as me due to some nav errors!)
2 Bronwyn Calver BS-A 49.30
3 Susanne Harrysson BS-A 61.50

the next street O will be in Chapman so that will be a lot hillier...

another pleasant walk this morning with Hodge getting swooped three times by the magpie...

my turn for a swopping with contact came out of the blue as I rode to work...I was on the path next to Chappell St, Lyons (part of the BBQ Stakes course) when, BAM, it smacked into my helmet/ear on the left side...apparently not a pedestrian swooper as they remained swoop-free in front of and behind me...

other than that excitement I had a zippy ride in!

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 7.3/86% (apparent temp 5.2)
start time: 8:18am
total distance: 16.54
total time: 37:50 (including 0:36 stopped time)
