Melbourne Cup...

Sunday Tim competed in his 22nd Noosa Triathlon...I think his swim and ride went OK but his calf went in the first k...he still finished though and probably would have beaten me over 10k...

yesterday the boys got walked in the rain...heaps of puddles and little rivers everywhere...

I did my usual Monday routine of parking at the Yacht Club then catching the bus from Albert Hall with the full intention of attending speedygeese but my left leg, particularly quad/hammie/glute was suffering DOMS from cricket so I decided to skip it...I did walk back to my car from work to make up for it...

this morning it was quite cool for our walk but at least the sun was out...

I hopped back on the bike for a good ride in...

put some bets on the Cup for Jodie and me...then went for a BRun at lunch...headed out a bit later than normal so just did two loops of Central Basin...

watched the Cup on twitter and Jodie managed to snag 1st and 2nd but not in a quinella...hopefully that's her winning roll out the window for tomorrow's BBQ stakes!
