Anzac Day Long Weekend 2016

St Vincents to Bondi return Sunday 10th July

Could not get out of bed after fondue night at Cecile and Martin's. So I watched the highlights of the Tour De France and Chris Froome's extraordinary victory in Col de Tourmalet stage.

Finally left home on a lovely winters day at 8, and parked in Centennial, then ran down to New South Head Rd and followed the City to Surf Course to the Military Rd turnoff, but continued straight on Old South Head road to MacKay Park and the up what must be the steepest hill in Sydney, Attunga St at Double Bay. (I had to have a little rest at the top)

Three beaches run reversed 3/7/16

It's been a while. Best time on this run was 1.06 several years ago. Super tired after yesterday's exertions and the flu making a comeback.
Felt OK but had to stop occasionally to cough my guts up. A beautiful day but cold. Lots of walkers on the track around Cape Banks. Ran the whole way OK. Tired but happy at the end.
A few scratches from lantana . The usual track has become overgrown in places.

Centennial laps

Super tired this morning. The remains of the flu are still hanging around. Missed the Striders 10k so rode my bike to Centennial via Lapa and did 8 laps in 59.30. Had free coffee at Skoda demo there.
Feeling good on the bike but really buffered on the last lap with fresh SW wind taking a bit of effort to stay above 30k/h
