Overestimated my fitness

Did the adventure race on Saturday in the Avoca Beach/Terrigal/Central Coast area. 4.6km on the kayak, 8.5km on foot and 17.6 on the bike. Totally underestimated my fitness. Walked most of the running legs. Bloody Kincumber Mountain - Pushing bike up the narrow steep & rocky track up to the Wariwari look out - painful and disheartening. Compunded unhappiness because the mozzies hovered, ready to devour you if you paused for a rest. Hot. Got dehydrated. Still sore. Did I have fun? Ummmm….

Becstarr : Dusk run

Dave bullied me into actually going on our planned after-work run despite the cold and drizzle. I managed 6 laps of the Sydney Park oval and it started coming back to me that running is very much a mind-game... convincing yourself to keep going is much harder than the actual act! We met up with Wei for a cheap Vietnamese dinner afterwards. I slept exceptionally well. :)
