Shadowing Eilidh around the Yellow course at the FVO club champs. The woods looked beautiful, so I decided that my well-strapped calf might be up to my collecting my Blue course map later and jogging a few controls back over the hill.

Club Champs Green course at Abbey Craig (incl. jog to start). I was persuaded at the start to have a go at completing the Green rather than definitely DNF the Blue, so I tentatively jogged my way around. Thankfully the terrain was very forgiving, although I did feel the calf give slightly - minor re-tear - en-route to #14, with <5 mins to go. Oh well. Walked from there. Was pretty clean at such a leisurely pace, although I did miss the oddly-placed #5 by 45s or so. Second behind an equally crocked Janine! TRIMP 69.3.

Mega night orienteering at Sauchie. Long course - 4km. Slow to #1 but so was Dave, so I was lucky enough to be with him for the first few. Got dropped (windblow), staggered on for a bit, surprised to catch him back up three controls later, missed another and he & Lewis got away, was with Fraser for a couple until he missed, then was solid crossing into the final loop when I was a bit fluffy and would have missed #18 had I not had Jamie - who had already missed it - for company. Steady to the finish. Decent effort, great course. TRIMP 110.5.

Went to collect in some controls with Fraser, despite my calf being a bit sore. Collected them. Went to put one back out because there were people still out. Stood around for a bit at the control, waiting, until Lewis came and relieved us. Calf massively tightened up when jogging back to the finish. Arse. TRIMP 25.1.

Started trying to jog back to the cars with Fraser but my calf was proper screwed. TRIMP 4.5.
