Work Group Bush Walk - Cotter 15 mile
Purpose: cross training
Distance: 23.35 km
Time: 4 hrs 2 mins 36 secs
Rate: 10' 23" pr km
Weather: sunny, temp range 17-32 degrees, humidity 80% down to 25%, wind mostly calm up to 10 km NW at finish
Week: 138.00 km, Jan & Year: 125.00 km
The 4th walk in our work group starting back in early Sept.
This time over the very familiar, to me, Cotter 15 mile course on a very warm morning with 7 others.
Overnight showers didn't do much to cool the temp down.
Another good day, pity the lookout over the dam construction was closed. Managed to get close to the new fish hatcheries and try to establish the full height & capacity when the dam is full.
Not sure if any of the tracks will be flooded, and it's hard to get an idea from above the levels now.
Looks like the walking group is getting established nicely, plenty of enthusiasm about the next couple planned.

Good idea for cross training. Only about 90 mins slower than my last run around there! How heavy was your pack?

Carried 3x600 mil fluids, plus weight of pack. About 2.5 kgs.

Not bad. I'm looking at three 2 litre bottles of water for my hikes up Tuggie Hill.
