| IOC, Bere Island. Long. Good to be back in West Cork and in real terrain, although Bere island is a little faster and steeper than my favourite areas. Weather mostly behaved part from a short but heavy rain/hail shower towards the end of my run. Started off slow as I was a bit concerned about how I?d cope, but felt good on the first hill so decided to push on. Ran well throughout and kept a good pace until the end, controls were all visible so lost no time on them, did stray off the line a few times, but only lost seconds. Very happy with the way I ran, navigated and with my result.

| Still in recovery mode. Bottom of left heel tender today, can't think of any event yesterday that would have caused it to be so. |

| SYO Spring Cup, Beeley Woods. A very enjoyable course and a much better evening than expected. I like running here, especially at this time of year before the vegetation grows up. No problems, although the map feels skew in plenty of places, just took it easy and used it as a test to see how I may be feeling for the weekend. Not great but not to bad is the probable answer. Will have to wait and see. |
