Fell run 40:00 [2] 7.4 km (5:24 / km) +100m 5:04 / km
(injured) shoes: Asics Gel Kayano 14_2008pair 2

Went out to the Trunce. Had no intention of racing and went out and ran the loop backwards until I saw Neill at the front (at the top of the first climb). Then stopped and took photos. Then legged it down to the road just in time to see Little Rob and Neill pass then crossed the stream and took photos. Jogged back slowly from there, then met Little Rob coming the other way (on his warm down) and did a loop with him. Ankle ok just piss weak on the downhills.

Up Parkwood Springs, various paths back to leppings lane and then tempo smashed it back along the tram tracks. Ankle felt weak as a new born kitten especially on downhills much better on the flat tarmac (infact didn't really feel it on the second part of the run.)

Event: EOC 2008

Orienteering race 55:00 [5] **** 8.0 km (6:53 / km) +400m 5:30 / km
shoes: Jalas Black

Euromeeting Relay. Went 3rd after John and Oleg. John missed and lost the pack and was less than pleased with his run. Oleg had a steady one and picked up a couple of places. I missed about 3.5 mins early on no's 3 and 4. Steady for the rest and going pretty well, but wrenched my ankle about 800m from the end! Carried on running but sore. It was really rocky (and steeper and greener) which was strange as the area was adjacent to yesterdays classic which was much faster.

Running warm up/down 30:00 [2] 5.0 km (6:00 / km)

Went for a long steady run to loosten up after yesterday, and then jogging about before the start.

Running warm up/down 20:00 [2] 4.0 km (5:00 / km)
shoes: Jalas Black

To start and a wee jog after.

Orienteering race 1:45:00 [5] **** 17.0 km (6:11 / km) +600m 5:15 / km
shoes: Jalas Black

Euromeeting Long. Good steady race until about halfway -didn't see anyone. After the first loop of the butterfly I managed to completely loose myself and wander off. The terrain just felt wrong and i mucked about for about 5 mins before just going back to where I had been and continuing on my compass. Not good. About 1km from end Anders Tiltnes caught me and we finished together. Would have been a reasonable run without the 5 min loop in the middle!
