Warm up
3 PM

orienteering race 50:16 [5] 8.66 km (5:48 / km) +270m 5:01 / km

Decent race but one large mistake and a few small stupid ones put me well off sasha's pace. Alex had a great run to take second and i just sneaked in in third. Reasonable through the first few controls before dropping just under four minutes at four. Just missed it on the slope and hadn't enough map contact to know my exact position so lost confidence running all the way down to the open fenced area to relocate. From here it was clean but often hesitant dropping a stack of time from them. Pleased with this run though as it has continued a string of reasonable consistent results!

12 PM

running 48:00 [3] 11.25 km (4:16 / km) +110m 4:04 / km

Ran out the door without much of an idea of what i was going to do. I ran around the roads which felt easy bar the first five minute where i was struggling below 5 min/k. Then settled into and it felt easy enough apart from a couple of the hills where my quads were feeling tired. Nice run and throat is pretty much fully recovered. Just the occasional tickle

First run i have been too hot in a while
6 PM

cycling 25:00 [3]

In and out of dunblane

Monday Apr 29, 2013 #

running 7:43 [1] 1.73 km (4:28 / km)

Looked out the window and it was sunny. I thought a recovery jog would be a nice break from revision but about 30 seconds into the run it started hailing and i got really cold. Continued for a little bit before giving up and coming back only to see the sun out again. Ah well.
6 PM

pilates 20:00 [0]

Nice stretch

circuits 20:00 [3]

Feeling very weak. Need to do some more of this stuff again

cycling 18:00 [3]

Cycling to and from dunblane. Took less than six minutes to pilates. Am really enjoying having this bike! Although quads are feeling pretty burnt out now from the cycling and that course yesterday. Not sure they ever fully recovered from that long in Portugal. Flat tomorrow

11 AM

orienteering race 47:39 [5] 6.0 km (7:57 / km) +310m 6:19 / km

Sol 3. 5.8km with .320m climb. I had a reasonably clean run. Went out slow and took the middle section quite hard before slowing again before the end. Two minutes or so lost, too low for five and then hesitant on 10 amd13. Won by a couple of minutes over a partially crippled sasha but still a very pleasing result. Feeling far more solid with my navigation now.

running warm up/down 15:00 [3] 2.0 km (7:30 / km)

Mix of jogging and stretches. Warm up
