Running 1:05:00 [3]
Climb 59 with Bairns. Got above the overhangs on the 11a and 10c. Still a long way to go mind.
11 AM
Running 45:07 [3] 8.71 km (5:11 / km)
ahr:146 max:171
Treadmill. 10x2mins Threshold. Found this tough today. Felt great before it, but after.....knackered.

Bouldering 1:10:00 [3]
Momentum with the bairns after school. Felt great. Had a go at a couple of blues. Progress!

Running 45:11 [3] 8.54 km (5:18 / km)
ahr:142 max:166
Treadmill. 15 mins threshold. Feeling good but knee is excruciating when I'm resting. Especially getting out of the car. Calves were still sore after NYC run. Probably expected as I barely do any road running at the moment. The knee though.....I'd feel like superman (including undies outside the strides) if it wasn't for it.

Easy from 10th to Battery Park to home. East River was great. Hudson was dense fog. Loved it. Met Lackey and Pino for brunch and then Moorcroft for beers after that......Love NYC.

Planned on going to Westmoreland....then changed it to 10 miles on Manhattan......then ended up with Delhi belly. (Which should be called NYC belly) So nothing achieved.

Orienteering 1:03:49 [3] 9.06 km (7:03 / km) +83m 6:44 / km
ahr:147 max:163
Orienteering. The first 10 controls were fantastic. Very tough, but enjoyable. The last 3 were tough. Really had fun. This is what training should be like.
#1 hit stream but ran short of kite by 25m. Ran back to stream junction before realised my mistake. 2mins
#2 was unsure where I'd hit the path so relocated where path and stream converged. Turns out I was originally going to hit it dead on. 2mins 30
#3 hit stream 30m to left. 20secs.
#4 left 3 at 120 degree error. Didn't let needle settle fully. (I chuckled Niels if you're reading) 2mins
#9 not sure if I took the best route. But it's not there. 5-6mins?
#13 hit stream 50m to left. Gambled and ran left. Hit road and doubled back. 3mins.
Total time lost 15mins?
The terrain and map is awesome. (Although last 3 are tough, tough going.)Really enjoyed the course.

Treadmill. 8x2mins. Feeling ok even with the remnants of the cold. Yesterday's spill has done more damage to the knee. But it's still tolerable.

ahr:149 max:161
Frustrating day. Woke up with a cold coming on although this didn't make any difference to the race. I actually felt really good after I'd warmed up. Really enjoyed the course and Jordan starting behind for the added pressure.
#1 50 secs lost. Dithered and came in from above after climbing too high.
#3 50 secs lost. Went straight to it. Didn't see it then ran to the fence corner and came back up to it.
#6 easily 7mins?? Huge cock up. Left the path way too early. Crossed fence and headed to 9.
#7 2 mins Misread the feature. Thought it was in the semi open so dropped down. I was originally metres from it.
#8 2mins followed wrong gulley.
#12 2mins gormless parallel error of sorts and ran down the obviously wrong peninsula.
14:40 mistakes. Jordan won by 3mins. ( He made some monster gaffs too and he wasn't trying half as hard as I was)
Generally some very silly errors when it seemed very simple. And bloody heck it was cold.

Macs are rubbish for orienteering.....thats official. Cannot overlay route on map on Quick Route. Grrrrr.
Climbing 1:20:00 [3]
Climb 59 with the Bairns. Quite tired. Difference between 10a and b is substantial here.
Routes from the weekend finally figured out. (Thanks to Martin).

Treadmill. 8x2mins Threshold. Knee is problematic, but barely felt it doing this. Cracking day, but still enjoying the treadmill workouts for some mind numbing reason.

Bouldering 1:00:00 [3]
Momentum again. Knee is at it again. Saw a group of English climbers defy physics. Never seen some of the stuff they were pulling off.

Another steady race. No huge mistakes...this isn't normal. Even wetter and colder this morning.
1 wrong control. 20 secs.
8 stupidly followed stream. 1min.
9 took the path. Ankles had taken too much thorn so needed some respite.?
12 too far right. 30secs.
15 exited too far right out of 14. 30secs.
17 ran to wrong control. Knew it but saw it first!! 30secs.
Total 2mins 50secs. Don't know winning time.
Really happy, especially with the compass work.

ahr:155 max:166
Map, course, everything, but the weather, was fantastic. It helped having a decent run. First race in what felt like months. Started slow and steady. No real warm up. I was just trying to stay alive it was so cold. Happy Kendal got out too. Went to look for her at the end. Thought she was lost, but nope, she was just ambling along in her own time. I felt the Yellow was very, very difficult.
Controls 1-4 just steady.
5 parallel error. Realised as I approached the track. 1min.
6 exited 90 degree error. But ultimately this helped me a tad. 3 mins.
9 too high hit middle of pond. Wanted to hit dam. 1min 15secs.
10 not the quickest route choice, but needed a breather from terrain and get a plan together. To the path to the right and cut in just before the junction. ??
16 saw the streamers for the White and got distracted. Bore left too much 30 secs.
Shoelace was undone last 6. Very loose running.
Time lost 5mins 45secs. Don't know the winning time.
No huge mistakes made this much more fun. A rare event.

Climbing 1:00:00 [3]
@ Climb 59 with the girls. These are long routes. Not difficult. 10B would be 9+ at TRG and Inspire. (Although the 10C's upwards look very daunting). Fairly tired by the end and ravenous. Curry was the ultimate recovery food.

Treadmill 6x3mins @Threshold. Was going to bail on this as the knee was excruciatingly painful this morning. Rolled the patella out and felt bearable. Probably should have pushed this a tad harder. Felt like I'd left quite a bit in the tank after.
Wednesday Feb 6, 2019 #
Bouldering 1:00:00 [3]
Took the bairns and Martin to momentum. The plan was to rollerski today, but the knee hurts and I was just too tired. Shuffled some stuff around for the weekend.

On a side note Strava recorded one of my many spills.

Absolutely knackered. This was very difficult for me. Did some easy loops to set AM off on her way then tackled the 5k women's Loppen. Did I love it yes. Did it almost kill me....yes. Brudy said at climbing, skate's all about technique. It's obvious I must skate like an epileptic in a washing machine. I virtually fell into the arena at the end. I love it up here. Probably stick to classic tomorrow.
