Training Log Archive: oscarS

First 3k along a track as a shakeout
Then a bit after a warm up with emus and angus then pierre and finlay aswell.

Scottish O Champs - 3rd M18, 2nd Scot
Was a tough race didn't help with the heat and not recovered from last weekend yet
Took a horrible route to 1 losing 1min30 and climbing loads extra. Angus caught me at around 2 after starting 2 mins after which wasn't great. Struggled to keep up and was getting dropped as we left the open. Thankfully in the rougher stuff I managed to keep on him and after hesitating a lot at 7 i overtook him going to 8 taking a different route. Caught emus here who started 2 mins ahead. Next few were fine just some tough hills and at the end of the long leg to 11 i definitely took the wrong route. The train kinda broke up at 12/13 and I made a mistake on 17 and leaving 19. Annoying as I had overtaken angus who then overtook me again and emus caught up. Last few were a mad sprint trying to make up lost time. Good fun but need a rest. Very happy with my result and definitely couldnt have gone nearly as fast without angus and emus towing me

was still pretty tired but felt fine cycling
Was quite happy to have an average speed of 29km/h on the way their despite 5k of off road and a path not designed for a gravel bike at all.
Very windy on the way home

cycle over to go camping with mates.
Was planning on cycling home on friday but we were all pretty shattered and thankfully erins mum gave me a lift home what a saviour
