Another few laps of Centennial Park this morning. I hit a bird almost as soon as I started. Well, it hit me really, bouncing off my front spokes. Lots of sqawking. I didn’t stop to see if it was alright. Not sure what I could have done anyway – brain it with a rock? Anyway, it wasn’t there on the next lap, so I assume it flew off.

It was 23C already by 7am, so I think I’m going to have to start leaving the house a bit earlier. Traffic is also starting to build up by 7.30, which means I’ve a few cars trying to squeeze by me on the way up Old South Head Rd. which isn’t a great experience. Came home by Military Road again for a total of 32km. The plan was to get 150km+ in this week but that’s unlikely to happen now as I forgot I’m doing the ocean swim in Watsons Bay on Saturday morning, so that’s the long ride out the window. Still, I’ll try and get a few laps in with Niall tonight to get over 100km.

B: 88.2km – S: 5300m
