Sunday May 18 | ||
| Note | |
| slept:9.0 (rest day) | ||
| a proper rest day. Slept in late, rattled off my report, demolished a tub of yoghurt, just getting ready for Indiana Jones now, then probably bed... Felt a bit shit all day. | ||
Saturday May 17 | ||
| Note | |
| slept:7.0 | ||
| OK, so I've been doing nothing for the past 4 days, but it has, in no way, been rest days!
Today was the denouement of the big 10-year anniversary-of-SingSoc project, and I must say we put on a pretty damn good show of Fanshawe's African Sanctus (odd man, odd piece of music) and Orff's Carmina Burana (without a doubt the best piece of music written in the 20th century). Spent from 11am on Saturday until 1am on Sunday out of the house, mainly in the church, but a bit of time in the pub for libations :) It's over now - I have Monday and Thursday nights back: I can work and I can train! Whether I do either, however, is a different matter... | ||
Friday May 16 | ||
| Note | |
| slept:7.0 | ||
| Boring busy day. Tired. Dullest lab session ever, with no-one really knowing what the hell we were meant to do. Rehersal in a bit. woop. | ||
Thursday May 15 | ||
| Note | |
| slept:7.0 | ||
| Busy day, and will be for the next 2 days and all, what with rehersing. But after that, there's just one week of lectures in the way.
legs felt a bit tight this morning, and the back of my right heel felt odd, but after a fair amount of walking around everything feels grand. Just want to get out now. Sods to work etc. Looking forward to getting home for a bit after exams and showing my face at MDOC events and hitting the peaks in a fairly big way... Oh, and getting my food cooked for me. Then back to Sheffield for lab placement and more training as there'll be nowt else to do... :D and the Aviemore. Hopefully... | ||
Wednesday May 14 | ||
| Running 1:00:00 [3] | |
| slept:7.5 shoes: Asics somethings | ||
| Run up to Eccy woods with Nails and Danger, then a steady jog back with Danger.
Realised where I go wrong with my training - I keep on stopping, everyone else doesn't. That's why I prefer running with people/in a Race, as there is no insentive to keep running when I go out on me own. Uphill was blergh, downhill was fun, running on road worked today compared to monday! Bottoms of quads felt a bit tired.. | ||
| Orienteering (Eccy Woods) 44:00 [4] *** 4.2 km (10:29 / km) +60m 9:47 / km | |
| spiked:15/16c shoes: Asics somethings | ||
| decided that I would do the medium course, as was a bit tired and didn't really want to have danger run past me after 50yards/in the right direction as I circle around control 1.
Medium was good. Apart from a bit of a cocking about at 5 was a (by my standards) very clean run, and at 5 I managed to work out where I was thanks to contour detail! Unheard of! haha. Pleased with navigation into 4,9,10,15, took a roundabout (i.e. zig-zag) route to 12 - trying to save the legs from holly as I was wearing shorts. Hardcore... Didn't recognise Eccy woods with all the foliage! Used to it being bare and able to see everything... | ||

Tuesday May 13 | ||
| Running warm up/down 10:00 [2] | |
| slept:7.0 shoes: Decathlon Kalenji Kapteren XT | ||
| Running race (Burbage Sjyline) 51:32 [4] 5.75 mi (8:57 / mi) +366m 4:39 / km | |
| shoes: Decathlon Kalenji Kapteren XT | ||
| Felt pretty good, especially on the nice gentle downhill bits where I could turn on the taps. Quads felt a bit urgh at one point, glutes similar at another, but by the end felt good as shinsplints decided not to raise their head :D | ||
Monday May 12 | ||
| Running race (Trunce #3) 30:24 [4] 4.25 mi (7:09 / mi) +167m 3:58 / km | |
| slept:8.5 shoes: Decathlon Kalenji Kapteren XT | ||
| Trunce #3. Maybe set too quick a pb? Felt ok, but the road stretch killed me a bit - couldn't run very fast most of the time. | ||
| Running warm up/down 15:00 [2] | |
| run most of way to goodwin/warm up/down
