You make it look so easy. "Sure I just ran up 5 Volcanoes. Then I had some scones. I think this afternoon I'll swim the English channel"...or the New Zealand equivalent. You continue to inspire!

And to do an 18.7km course in 15.8km shows the makings of a good orienteer. :-) That's a pretty tidy average pace over those hills too. Well done. Sounds like great fun!

You're also bloody lucky that the weather turned out to be a pearler - you won't believe the amount of washing I got done! (seriously!) I'm going to have scones and jam to celebrate when I run up one volcano (Mt Eden, the one that is right next to my office. I'm certain I could throw something from the top and have it land on Worker Bee's head), I bet those must've tasted bloody fantastic after it was all done :-D You’re a nut.

I think the fact that you always look so happy in your "running pictures" is evidence that you've found the right thing for you.
