Got a cold.

C • Me Too! 3

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.

Eadie on a half day today. Was going to roller ski, but put off again.

Macs are rubbish for orienteering.....thats official. Cannot overlay route on map on Quick Route. Grrrrr.

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.

C • I can't do it. 8

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.

C • Climbers 1

Treadmill. 15mins Threshold.

Momentum before the school run and work. Quite a few new routes up that I liked.
