Warm Up at Centennial Park

Had someone take my wallet and phone from my car which I'd left unlocked whilst finishing my warm up. Fortunately I thought he looked a bit suspicious so checked my car and saw him running up Paddington Hill. I took off up the hill and gently managed to coerce him into returning the phone and wallet. He threatened to come back with his mates so thought it best I relocate and ice my hand which was sore from the coercion process. Not to worry, another day to let the quad recover is a bonus.

Just in case i'd forgotten how much I suck at running, James weighing in at 95kg and running twice per week did our final 500m in 79sec in heavy trainers on grass. Nice to have talent :-)

Big sporting week, but the highlight for me was Steve K's cracking Berlin Marathon. 2:58.51 for the longest continual surthriving member of Team Tiger. We'd been paddling for the last couple of years and decided to get a bit radical and turned his training upside down. Same energy systems, different stimulus, different periodisation, better result, absolutely stoked for Steve!
