Score format with added challenges at some controls to "earn" points. Managed to complete about 1/2 wall traverse before team decision that it was taking too long & we abandoned it. Mark & Andrew completed space hopper relay! Andrew completed slalom skiing on Wii Fit. Juggled oranges. Word search. Back within time limit so no penalties accrued. Knees still aching with downhill running & pace could be better. Feel knee injury really set me back on the additional training I had planned before this event - didn't get to do the hill running & speed reps that I had planned on my holiday. | ||

| Supposed to be an easy "tickover" run before the weekend....... Knees only aching slightly compared to previously - L>R.
Pretty pleased with that as increased stride length really ached last run. | ||

Wednesday Jul 16 | ||
| Climbing 3:00:00 [2] | |
| (injured) shoes: Boreal Joker | ||
| A bit of bouldering before the others arrived - was careful not to tackle too many routes & risk being too fatigued to climb later.
Mostly 5+ routes. Completed a couple of 6a's too. Managed ~1/4 way up 6b then changed to yellow 6a route - arms too tired to make a good job of it..... Tired now..... | ||

| Great to be back on a climbing wall & boulders again!!!!!!!!! Have missed climbing so much!
Very happy/contented person with that tonight. Didn't climb anything more that 5+, but knees not a problem & only knocked right knee once. Roll on Wednesday - will try a 6a or two hopefully...... | ||
