| Im so glad SROC didnt qualify for the CSC. Instead i went for a nice easy run around Ilkley Moor (again). Legs were really tight at the start, especially my hamstrings. Stopped to stretch them out and felt better and better as time went on. Felt especially strong on the hills. Its weird but sometimes i do feel better for a good hard race. |

| Warming up and down. Didnt do any drills or stride because i thought i looked silly enough in my tights without making it any worse. |

| Nav leg of the FRAs. We had a clean run and were evenly matched so we pushed each other hard all the way around. Quentin got a few metres on me going down the last crazy descent but i reeled him in over the last field. Visibility was low and a bit of local knowledge came into play but not much. Felt pretty good and we achieved our aim of getting in the top 10. Good to see so many orienteers packing it in near the sharp end of the results. |

| Running to and from Becketts. It was very dark in the woods. Decided against the uni session as they were doing it on roads. |
 | running 15:00 [2] | |
| |
| Drills and strides pre and post. Felt like a right twat doing them by myself. |

| Half an intervals session again. 1min on, 30secs off (short and sharp before the weekend, i'll do some longer ones soon). The footballers on the astroturf always seemed to be shouting about having a man on their back, which i found amusing. |

| Steady recovery type run around Becketts. Saw some topless footballers, which is odd considering its October. |

 | running 39:00 [3] | |
| |
| Running to and from the session. Wanted to wear lycra but thought people would laugh at me so made do with some cut offs (probably only slightly less laughable). |
 | running 27:00 [2] | |
| |
| Strides and drills pre and post. Plus some cruising around whilst other people did the whole session. |
 | running 12:00 [5] | |
| |
| Fartlek session with the efforts about 45 secs ish (at a guess). Was concentrating on staying more upright and generating more power by optimising my hip flexor movement blah blah. Felt really good and wanted to do the whole session but only did half as on an easy week (yay). Am kinda wondering if we should be doing longer reps but the coach defo knows what hes doing and its my basic speed that needs improving anyway so these are ok. |
