Tuesday was the return to the Sun Valley loop with BMMC.
Wednesday Morning busted out the H'bury Loop with Animal, getting back in time to pack the bag and head out to Kanangra NP.
A break from the normal routine this week for a 3 day hike from Kanangra Walls to Katoomba. After piss-farting around for the best part of the morning we got out to the start of the track by just after 2pm, and headed off at 2:30pm. Night 1 was atop a saddle before Mt Stormbreaker, giving us a nice climb in the morning. Making good time Day 2 we got to the top of Mt Yellow Pup. Really enjoyed the climb, spent most of it imagining a decent bike ride down in probably 15 minutes max. Took me 1hr18 to get to the top. Quads were sore. Last day had us concerned about how far we had yet to cover, however pleasantly surprised by the "cruisiness" of the remaining trail, getting to the top of Narrow Neck for lunch before midday.
Inspired to do some more hiking.
Registered for North Face 100km as part of a 2-man relay with Wayne Donges. Looking forward to seeing what the body can do when pushed, and pushed, and pushed. I think the key is going to be nutrition and hydration. Hopefully will get in some longer 30km+ runs in the next 4 weeks.
Bummed I missed the Kedumba Pass run Sat morning. I think an Anzac Day Epic is going to be on the cards.
