Orienteering race 40:48 [4] ***** 4.8 km (8:30 / km)
ahr:181 max:194 spiked:13/19c shoes: Shiny silver integrators

Silva O Camp, boys Elite race. Good to get into the terrain, a bit messy in the circles of come but generally reading the gross detail well. Not always smooth into the circle though, especially in the green.

Running 20:49 [2]
ahr:127 max:168

Warm up and down jog to the afternoon's exercise.

Orienteering 49:42 [4] **** 5.5 km (9:02 / km)
ahr:163 max:177 spiked:12/17c shoes: Shiny silver integrators

Trainign course in the afternoon. Again, struggling in the circle at the start but once got into the flow much better. Need to concentrate so hard, the lack of features makes it so much more important and it's very easy to drift. Need to aggresively spot features ahead and left and right and confidently hit your feature.

ahr:151 max:177 slept:8.0 shoes: Shiny silver integrators

Left the flat at 7pm on a gorgeous evening and just thought I'd run for as long as a I fancied - so brilliant after all the strict training plans and regimes. 50 minutes later I was at the top of Capelaw after a long climb from home and the view was fantastic! Gorgeous, all alone up in the Pentlands with shafts of sunlight just getting through the cloud as the sun made it's way down. The last half an hour back into town was a little bit of a slog on the road, the legs pretty tight, but what an awesome way to spend an evening. I feel totally refreshed and remotivated.
