Running 25:00 [1] 4.0 km (6:15 / km)
shoes: Yellow Inov8 X-talons 212

WU/WD round the course cheering on others and drills on the field

Running 12:07 [4] 2.7 km (4:29 / km) +15m 4:22 / km
shoes: Yellow Inov8 X-talons 212

Moray Schools XC - Lossie
Steady from the start trying not to get caught up in the expected banta start, then settled into it and started picking people off. Felt strong out the first half and went well on the hills where I did all my overtaking. Got into 3rd half way round the first lap (behind Anna and Grace) and just did the rest of the race by myself. No one right behind and Anna and grace with a big lead meant I wasn't really being pushed.
3rd, 1st team (me, Anna and Emma)
7 PM

Running 52:16 [5] 7.44 km (7:02 / km) +150m 6:23 / km

Harriers Nelson Road Intervals
Warm up

3x5x~45secs hills. Jog down between each one, and a longer loop between each set of 5
Started a bit high on the first one, but then dropped down and hit them all at 44 or 45 seconds. Really struggling on the last set especially, but a strange enjoyment kept me going back for more...!

Warm down
Dead after this and xc

Orienteering 1:05:33 [3] 5.5 km (11:55 / km) +155m 10:27 / km
shoes: X-talon 212 Green/black

ScotJOS Training
Attackpoint exercise with Roanne and Clare. Good stuff except no.2 when we all got a bit carried away going up the hill to no.2 and was a bit high.
Putting it all together exercise with Clare, bit faster and going quite well. Met Fred and Tom at the second last one so had to give them a race back to the finish. Me and Clare did it for the girls and showed them how to orienteer. Fair to say they were a bit shocked to see us at the finish when they got there ;)
Particularly wet woodland and marshes, and lots of pretty thick green made things quite slow

Orienteering 1:32:17 [2] 7.84 km (11:46 / km) +246m 10:10 / km
shoes: Yellow Inov8 X-talons 212

ScotJOS Training
Jog round a "Plan It" course with Clare
Bit faster around "Talk It" with Clare and Matthew (pretty much just trying to keep up with Matthew's mad pace;) )
Jog/Walk around half of "run it" with Clare
Seemed to be navigating pretty well, not really a difficult area but going through all the motions nicely
Also seem to have lost the ability to pick up my feet, or just have any balance at all really. No problems particularly, except fell over a fence and smashed my knee off a rock which has left a nice cut a bruise!

9 AM

Running 47:06 [4] 5.75 km (8:11 / km) +130m 7:22 / km
shoes: Yellow Inov8 X-talons 212

Moravian hill intervals - Quarellwood
Warm up round the bottom track from the carpark and to the bottom of the effort
4xhills[recovery while partner running]
I started further down than everyone else to make it a 5min rep (up and down) and so I wasn't getting too much rest. Paired with Lil who started at the normal place. Pretty sure I was getting about equal rest to effort.
So much longer than I had expected it to be, so subsiquently went off a bit too fast on the first one. Also quite hard footing on the slippy roots. Really enjoyed the session anyway
Cool down the top path back to the carpark
11 AM

Swimming 35:00 [1]

Chilled in PE (only 4 of us)
Nice to loosen off a bit

Taylor Swift tribute band??

Orienteering 52:30 [2] 5.19 km (10:07 / km)
shoes: Yellow Inov8 X-talons 212

NNC Round 6 - Lochandinty
Bit of headtorch troubles meant I had to swap near the beginning then carry my bigger one which was really annoying me!
Never properly got into this really, loosing significant time at no.2 and 7, then lost a bit of motivation. Pretty scrappy all round after this, nothing major but stumbled across quite a lot of the controls. Wasn't really moving well either (hence why I'm not sure if I can count this much more than intensity 2!).
Not an end to the league I would have liked, but definitely pre-race things that went wrong here I can learn from

Running warm up/down 10:00 [1] 1.5 km (6:40 / km)
