Sat 3rd Jan - Thredbo 3

AM
Bike ride. Dead Horse Gap + 30 minute run off bike. 116km Ave pace 22.2, ave HR 136. The Garmin only started after the descent therefore the average is lower than actual. Run 6.23km, ave pace 4:39.
PM
Run (Up to Cascades Trail – Road Run). 10km, ave 4:47, 48 minutes, 148 ave HR.
Extremely solid day, started with the ride in the cold weather with a frost on the car. Rolled out around 7:30 with the Hert group and quickly settled into a steady rhythm. Because we didn’t have any drivers, Jo and Eliza ran the support group from the Forrester which was awesome, it was much appreciated later as the pack split and 4 people had to get lifts up the last hill 17km.
The knee is playing up a bit on the ride but with all the k’s at the moment it’s not too surprising. It holds up well on the run though.
Apart from that, towards the end of the day I am feeling more and more tired and settling in for an easy night tonight.....
