Saturday Jan 20, 2018 #
Running warm up/down 8:40 [3] 1.0 mi (8:40 / mi)
Running race 21:45 [4] 3.3 mi (6:35 / mi) +60m 6:14 / mi
The only parkrun on in the Central Belt.
4 x out and back in the snow, with a bit of a hill on the way back.
Legs aching straight away so took it steady in view of race later.
Leader 2 mins ahead, could I have run 2 mins quicker? Unlikely I'd say.
Enjoyed it, and much credit to the event team for not giving up.
Running warm up/down 4:50 [4] 0.6 mi (8:03 / mi)
Running warm up/down 5:00 [2] 0.6 mi (8:20 / mi)
Urban Orienteering race 1:15:40 [4] 9.9 mi (7:39 / mi) +330m 6:56 / mi
(Not sure about that climb that strava tells me)
Sensible decision to void the race
Ran fairly hard when I could but was tip toeing on the icy sections, mainly in the council estate to the east which was treacherous. Not happy with route choices on the legs W-E into and out of that area either.
Otherwise, not bad.
Good to have a longer distance urban race.

Running 29:50 [3] 4.0 mi (7:28 / mi) +10m 7:24 / mi
Running warm up/down 7:45 [3] 1.0 mi (7:45 / mi)
Urban Orienteering race 26:45 [3] 3.6 mi (7:26 / mi)
Too icy to run fast in the dark.
Considering I was not running fast the silly, if small errors I made early on were a bit annoying.
Running warm up/down 9:00 [3] 1.1 mi (8:11 / mi)
Urban Orienteering race 13:15 [4] 1.0 mi (13:15 / mi) +20m 12:29 / mi
Had to do the short race as started at 2045 and the building shut at 2100!
Massive fun, messed up getting on to the ice rink that was the roof and the head scratcher that was the finish but the rest went well. Helped having done one before as you have to think differently.
It was only afterwards I really clocked the map basically only used the corridors in contrast to the York event where nothing was OOB.
An interesting dilemma for the AIRE event we may get cracking on, though the decision could easily be made for us...

Running 26:10 [2] 3.5 mi (7:29 / mi)
Trampoline Circuits 1:00:00 [3]
It felt easy at first but snuck up on me, esp in calves so will be interesting to see how I run tomorrow...

Running 42:00 [3] 4.9 mi (8:34 / mi)
Running warm up/down 18:45 [2] 2.5 mi (7:30 / mi) +30m 7:14 / mi
Orienteering race 50:50 [3] 5.8 mi (8:46 / mi) +30m 8:38 / mi
Got them all, had a fairly major wobble costing about a minute early on, but the rest was fine. Rather enjoyable in fact.
Orienteering 14:00 [3] 1.7 mi (8:14 / mi)
Tuesday Jan 16, 2018 #
Running 32:00 [2] 4.2 mi (7:37 / mi)
Running 1:06:30 [4] 10.0 mi (6:39 / mi) +100m 6:27 / mi
Apparently weather related but have trained in far worse conditions even this winter.
Couldn't rouse myself for a solo session so ran up through Middleton to Tingley then down past white rose and finished with the last k on the track.
Decent run, the slush made it hard going but ploughed on both literally and figuratively.
