In the excitement of first day back at school, forgot my goggles and hat. Idiot. Jammily borrowed some off a Serious Swimmer 10 mins of b/s and b/c in. Did ~ 6 mins of aquarunning for a change too.
Loch Morlich OWS. Rest of the family paddled off and I had a lovely swim around all the buoys. A few other swimmers in the water, plus tail end of the Starman Tri for entertainment. Hardly any wind for once...great for swimming/paddling...rubbish for keeping midges away!
Roseisle mtb ride with M & H. So much for a peaceful day at the beach/forest...100 Moravian orienteers were having their club champs!
H/s seems to be surviving.
Couldn't face a 5.30am start, still pooped from wkd, so solo sesh at lunch.
Including 15 x 50m off 60. Kicking super hard def does aggravate my h/s a bit - need to stop that!
OWS @ Loch Ken with Rebb plus supporters. Managed to avoid any boats! And American signal crayfish.

Dalbeattie blue mtb taster trail with M&H plus friends. Very nerve-wracking watching H do the boardwalks etc but she took it all in her stride. Bilberries and ice-cream to top it all off :-)
Gym sesh - 10 mins on cross trainer to see if it aggrevated my h/s or not, some arm weights and then some serious mat work. New motivation from my chat with Dr SR :-)
Awesome week for lots of reasons but in terms of orienteering, very proud of M who did 6 solo white courses and always came back smiling, and for hubby who podiumed. Hope I can run at the next one!
Now to burn off the prosecco / gin / wine / cheese!
Family mtb along old railway from Ballater to bashed up suspension bridge east of Cambus. Lots of raspberry picking on the way back, and the biggest ever ice cream for the kids :-)
