Wednesday Jan 16

Note
(sick)
Bleurgh. I seem to have contracted a perculiar variation of the manflu, where I get to feel crap without displaying any of the visible, sympathy-eliciting symptoms. Highlights so far include a night of feverish, hallucinatory shivering, followed by morning sickness. Perhaps I've been abducted and impregnated by aliens. Or perhaps it's a viral thing. Whatever.

Note
My rib seems to have stopped hurting, which is nice.

Monday Jan 14

Circuits 45:00 [3]
As the Wombles once sang, exercise is good for you, laziness is not.
Even if you did only get three hours of sleep the previous night.

Sunday Jan 13

Orienteering (Sallowvallets) 1:18:58 [4] *** 9.32 km (8:28 / km) +350m 7:08 / km
spiked:15/19c
18th of 56 on Brown, won by Pete James in 59.34.

Hilly. Very, very hilly. Lots of running up hills. I'm tired now.

Scrappy run generally: lost about three mins charging around in what turned out not to be the general vicinity of 1, made a route choice error that probably cost me about a minute, and generally a bit slow/hesitant. Shame, as the course wasn't very technically difficult - perhaps even a bit boring (it'd could have done with a control pick or two to break up all the 600m-ish legs).

I was non-comp for the CSTrophy as KERNO hadn't entered, which was a bit of a shame as I would have collected 98 points for them if they had. Silly KERNO.

Also, still need to get fit. Don't seem to have become any fitter since yesterday, which is a pity.

Saturday Jan 12

Orienteering (Wittenham Clumps) 33:03 [4] *** 4.9 km (6:45 / km) +165m 5:46 / km
spiked:11/14c
3rd of 20 on Green - won by Nigel Bunn in 28.58

A pleasant enough bimble around one of my less favourite TVOC areas. Fairly clean, a couple of small wobbles and one running-straight-past-the-control-convinced-that-wasn't-it. Had Dave Armstrong chasing me (and in front for a bit) from 2 to 10, which made me pick up the pace a bit (and I find I tend to focus better when I know I'm running against someone).

Really feeling the lack of fitness, though - Chris M was two minutes faster than me, despite making a two-minute mistake. I think I could do with (a) doing a bit of training and (b) losing a bit of weight. Ho hum.
