speedygeese @ Parliament House, BBQ Stakes #68 (rabbit 11 hunter 5)...

Monday

walked the boys after a late start then parked at the Yacht Club...walked to Albert Hall to catch the bus then run back to my car after work...nearly lost my Ay-Ups on the run as my backpack wasn't done up properly and was slowly working its way open...

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 8.6/60% (apparent temp 5.2)
start time: 5:03pm
total distance: 3.32
total time: 18:38
avg pace: 5:36

not many attendees for the speedygeese session...

warm up: 2.30k (usual lap + jog to top of hill)

~200m hills (down & up): 20 on 90secs

58, 59, 60, 61, 60, 61, 61, 60, 63, 62, 63, 61, 63, 65, 65, 66, 63, 66, 64, 57

warm down: 1.17k (¾ reverse lap back to stairs)

total 7.40k in 56:19...starting temp/humidity: 7.7/64% (apparent temp 4.6)...avg HR: 169...TE: 3.1

was a hard session and I was knackered by halfway!...my legs were feeling the effects of indoor's double header of 'keeping on Saturday afternoon/night...

yesterday...walked the boys before playing golf with Tammie, her first round in nearly a month...I was better than Saturday (not hard) but Tammie did well enough to come second...

my quads were quite sore (it was a struggle to crouch down on the greens!) so I didn't end up running...

this morning, after walking the boys, I hopped back on the bike for the first time in three weeks...

was a stop-start affair as I seemed to catch most of the red lights...

the stats:
start temp/humidity: 2.4/88% (apparent temp same)
start time: 8:19am
total distance: 16.60
total time: 42:59 (including 1:32 stopped time)
avg speed: 23.2kph
total calories: 347
avg HR: 124

after blinding me with an image of her pre-race stretching (it really should have come with a warning!), the rabbit (aka Jodie) blew me away to finish 23rd in 45:49 while I hobbled across the line in 45th (31:05), some 1:31 behind...note to self, do not (a) 'keep in an indoor cricket double-header, (b) follow it up with a hard speedygeese double-hill session and then (c) expect to catch the rabbit...rabbit 11 hunter 5...

conditions were a bit windy on the trails but I struggled to get going right from the start...

"hopped back on the back" of the bike?

Rabbit was on a mission today - I started with a walk and she ran all the way beyond the first underpass.
