11 AM

Cycling 4:20:23 [3] 107.21 km (24.7 kph) +1000m

Long one to Peebles -> Innerleithen and back with Stephen, a fairly easy cruise.
Lots of fun, a very enjoyable day out on the bike! Feeling quite good, legs weirdly fresh which was nice, so I was actually quite strong up the hills for once. Nice and sunny, and the wind wasn't too badly into the face.
Poor old Stephen's legs blew up just at Bonnyrigg, which made for a very gentle (for me at least) end to the ride.

Gotta do more like this, as soon as possible! Was an excellent time

Run 13:41 [2] 2.31 km (5:55 / km) +35m 5:30 / km
shoes: Mudroc 290s

To the start with Calum, and then back again with Calum and TimTam

Orienteering 34:20 [4] 4.01 km (8:34 / km) +120m 7:27 / km
shoes: Mudroc 290s

Scottish Spring Middle - Abbey Craig

A very nice sunny morning to be orienteering, and this was a lot of fun. I was moving okay except on the uphills, where I was atrociously slow (aka walking).
Very rusty technique, probably from all the lack of orienteering I'm doing, but it was a good time. Shin and foot hurt, oh dear
2 PM

Run 14:09 [2] 2.41 km (5:52 / km) +20m 5:38 / km
shoes: Waverider 19s

To the start with Calum, and back with all sorts.

Orienteering 19:09 [3] 4.06 km (4:43 / km) +15m 4:38 / km
shoes: Waverider 19s

Scottish Spring Sprint - Castlandhill

Rather slug like - didn't have any oomph in my legs, so plodded around slowly. Slightly a shame that all the alleys could be got through, would've been nice to have some sneaky blocked ones!

Shin sore again, unsurprisingly. Considering not running until I actually do some physio/stretching and fix the obviously underlying issues

7 PM

Orienteering 18:30 [3] 4.37 km (4:14 / km) +20m 4:08 / km
shoes: Waverider 19s

FwtN #10 - Gracemount

Course was mercifully short which was excellent news. Everything fairly straight forwards too, nothing too tricksy
Got myself a 3rd place to come 2nd overall in the FwtN league and won a creme egg and a small owl, nice.

Left shin/bottom of knee hurt a bit, which is a new one.

6 PM

Run 26:10 [2] 4.97 km (5:16 / km) +50m 5:01 / km
shoes: Waverider 19s

I think it's a criminal offense to not get out and do some exercise in such a lovely evening. I didn't feel much like a runner though, very stiff and inflexible, and lots of things hurt.
As always, I should probably do some stretching
