WEDNESDAY 6/8- Spurwood Rd- Long Angle Trail- Low Gear Lane- Rickard Rd. 5.5K, 31.32, 5.39min/km. Same run as Monday under cold, grey and windy skies. Love Blue Mountains running in winter.

FRIDAY 8/8- Rickard Rd- Five Ways- Finchs Lookout- return. 7.2K, 40.56, 5.42min/km. Mid morning run- half road half trail. Did a mile of 30sec sprint/ 30 sec walk on the way back. Same loop as Monday and Wednesday with the big hill. Felt tired so cruised it.
SATURDAY 9/8- Spurwood Rd- Long Angle Trail- Low Gear Lane- Rickard Rd. 5.5K, 32.07, 5.46min/km. Same loop as Monday and Wednesday with the big hill. Felt tired so cruised it.

WEEKLY TOTAL 45.3K
A chronicle of a comeback. Used to be Mr Big Miles and knocked over a few 100 mile races and a little multisport till illness and subsequent lifestyle changes in 2005 derailed all that. Now trying to get my life in order and get some of that old competitive shape back.
