Training Log Archive: Rhesus

Didn't realise the starts stopped at 12.30 so rolled up at 1 after a few beers last night and couldn't enter. Luckily Tony Duncan gave me a map for free. Some of the controls had been collected in so kept me on m toes.

On the whole, decent. Still some sloppiness creeping in when I thought there would be a kite. Concentrated better when I knew there wasn't one. Plenty to work with.

High Street in the snow. Bumped into Matt whatshisname.

Up at 4.45am to hike onto Blencathra to shoot some still and videos for Inov8 - Sunrise was amazing and got to fly a drone, and rescue Lee Proctor by ice axe! Good to catch up with Bruce Duncan and Dave.

More WCOC night O. Fangs Brow. Snow and ice, so wore Arctic Claws again,

Much better than previous, enjoyed the course but the maps definitely don't allow for comfortable orienteering. Was a bit slow on some controls due to over reading the iffy map but happier on the whole, definite improvement on last time out.

Yup, can't work out Quickroute. Me dumb.

Easiing self back into it. So fucking busy!!

Very busy day again. Definitely received a full Spooking.

Getting back to Keswick was enough today.
