Event: British Relays
 

Orienteering warm up/down (warm-up) 15:00 [2] 2.0 km (7:30 / km)
shoes: adidas Neptune XS (spikes)

warm-up and drills before first leg.

Orienteering race (British Relays) 43:20 [5] 6.8 km (6:22 / km) +105m 5:55 / km
shoes: adidas Neptune XS (spikes)

First leg for the SYO 4th team, somehow managed to get through the first third of the course in the top few with Craney still in sight. Reality then hit and the rest of the field who had actually been training for the last year started to pass me. Made a silly miss on the first control in the green otherwise I might have kept in touch with the leaders, having the toughest gaffle didn't help. Managed to hold on to Dave Sprot and Ralph Street after they came past me and finished in 9th only 3 mins behind Craney.

Event: British Long Champs
 

Orienteering race (British Champs) 2:07:00 [5] 16.0 km (7:56 / km) +285m 7:17 / km
shoes: adidas Neptune XS (spikes)

British Champs, made a nightmare mistake on the 5th control after starting pretty well, lost 8 minutes and really struggled to mentally get back into the race afterwards. After about the 16-17 control started to really struggle and then well and truly died and had to crawl around the last 5 or so legs after my hamstrings decided to stop working.

Predicted the results perfectly for today 1st Hoggster, 2nd Fish, 3rd Me.
C • you looked pretty good to m... 4

Orienteering warm up/down (warm up) 20:00 [1] 2.0 km (10:00 / km)
shoes: adidas Neptune XS (spikes)

warm up jog and drills, there was no cooldown but I did have to walk the last 15 minutes of the course so it seemed pointless.

Running 43:30 [3] 10.0 km (4:21 / km) +45m 4:15 / km
shoes: adidas adistar control

'Easy' jog with Steve at lunchtime.

Running (drills and sprints) 40:00 [2] 4.0 km (10:00 / km)
shoes: nike zoom elite 3

Felt terrible so gave intervals a miss, instead did warm-up jog and then full set of drills. Followed this with 5 x 60m sprints. Felt like Robbie Preston but speed and coordination WILL get better.
