Running warm up/down 20:00 [3]
Orienteering race (BOC Relays Torphantrick) 35:47 [3]
No sustainable speed.
Good to my first but got scared of brashing and took a long route to my second. Lead for a bit down the path to four with Pete then Cherry then Shminty overtaking me. Poor routechoice to 5 and got slightly pulled off-line by the right-hand gaffle. Was near Carcas and Joe on the way to 7. I lost contact but properly stopped and relocated but continued to make a parallel error and went to the left-hand control.
With Kit on the way to 8. On the way to 9 I just couldn't shift any more and got very slow again. Navigationally fine but lost lots more minutes to send Matt out well down. He pulled a good one though and climbed back up to a respectable fifth somehow. Willy, feeling a bit similar to me, caught one / lost one to bring us home in fifth.
Very disappointing physical performance, but had been expecting it to be honest, hoped I would get away with it in a relay. Wish I had retired from the long to save a bit more energy for this.
Next year.

Running warm up/down 15:00 [3]
Running (BOC Long Balmoral) 2:06:00 [3]
1-8 Fast - Slight oversimplification in the circle at #1 but caught sight of Josh. Similar to 2. Must have run so close to 3 but overshot. Caught by Pete. Didn't feel the spur on the way to #5 but relocated well in the circle.
8-9 Slow - Pete ran off into the distance. Good bearing.
9-10 Medium - Over the rocks but got distracted from the path to the control
10-11 Fast - With Josh
11-12 Slow - Some walking and a terrible route choice straight from the path-bend to the control
12-13 Medium - Chloe had caught some time on me
13-16 Very slow - Considered turning round and retiring but guessed that Jonny might catch me soon which would give me motivation to run
16-20 Medium Fast - Jonny caught me and it was downhill
20-24 Slow - Some walking and some hills
24-27 Very Slow - Lots of walking
27-F Fast - Downhill and caught by Josh Dudley

Running (Parkend) 40:00 [3]
Printed out an O-map but left it somewhere. So went for a short terrain run and then did some short gentle hill reps at the end. They got my lungs working good and I included the downhill in the rep to get some better leg turnover. Not a big session but after how I have been feeling recently I am pretty pleased to have got something out of it.
Mountain Biking (Parkend) 30:00 [3]
Cool trails, as previously. Some definitely helps to have ridden them before.
