Mid-Week Event, Gap Creek Central, Mount Coot-tha, Brisbane
12:00 Thursday 28th June 2007
"Gap Creek Central" 2007 1:10,000 5m
UBD 157 H15 10km West of Brisbane CBD
"Short" 8 controls 2.3km 90m climb (3.9%)
I pulled a calf muscle chasing my little boy then did it again at Banks Street Reserve (not blogged) so I've had a couple of weeks off to recover. I decided to burgle the short course to limit leg stress and the plan worked fine for a while - I was on track to win in around 25 minutes (10mpk+) when I rolled the same ankle on the last control. I guess the calf weakness contributed. I've done my ankles so many times it didn't hurt (much) or get damaged (much) but I'll take it easy this weekend.
Thanks Clive.

SEQ 3 day, Harding's Paddock, Purga, Ipswich
12:30 Saturday 9th June 2007
"Harding's Paddock" 2007 1:10,000 5m
50km SW of Brisbane CBD
"Red 2" 4.3km 210m climb (4.9%)
Oddly, SportIdent was used for the start and finish but not the controls.
4>5 Climbed up the track then contoured to the creek junction and up
7>8 was a little confusing - the drinks were in the wrong place!
I recorded 47 minutes (10.9mpk), 12 minutes behind someone just over a quarter of my age 8^(

UBD 200 J1 8km S of Brisbane CBD
"Long" 10 controls 4.3km 165m climb (4%)
9 was missing which wasted a few minutes. I took 50 minutes (11.6mpk). It was fairly rugged underfoot. The course was quite challenging but I didn't lose any time anywhere else.
