Event: DVO Matlock Moor EM League
 
11 AM

Running warm up/down 10:30 [2] 1.9 km (5:32 / km) +50m 4:53 / km
(sick) shoes: Inov8 O Roc 280

Fed up and wanted to see how a bit of training went so decided to head to Matlock Moor for a spot of orienteering.

Up to the start. Feeling OK bar the head cold.

Orienteering race 47:24 [4] *** 8.0 km (5:56 / km) +80m 5:39 / km
spiked:12/16c (sick) shoes: Inov8 O Roc 280

Brown course at Matlock Moor

Tricky first few and I lost 60-90s on each 1 and 4. Most lost lots more on one but probably should have picked a better rout in and just lost my position on 4 and headless chickened. Also lost ~20s on the short leg to 13 with a poor bearing and ~45s on the last control by overshooting. Would be a decent area with a hard winter to clear the brambles. Running was clearly not right - didn't have the extra gear or two.
C • I agree 1

Running warm up/down 8:00 [2] 1.5 km (5:20 / km)
(sick) shoes: Inov8 O Roc 280

Back to the car when I started with heart pulpitations out of the blue. No idea what caused them. I have had them several times before but not for the last 20 months or so. A little disconcerting.

7 AM

Running 16:08 intensity: (10:57 @1) + (3:21 @2) + (1:28 @3) + (22 @4) 3.06 km (5:16 / km) +22m 5:05 / km
ahr:127 max:161 slept:8.0 weight:65.8kg (sick) shoes: Adidas Adizero Adios 2 (2)

Legs like lead weights. Cold seams to be improving though.
5 PM

Running 10:00 [1] 2.2 km (4:33 / km) +10m 4:27 / km
(sick) shoes: Adidas Adizero Adios 2 (2)

Getting home from the station was a major effort - sacking off this evening's run was a no brainer. Cold and tiredness have caught up with me - rest needed for a day or so and then I should be able to pick back up.

Running 33:35 intensity: (28:59 @2) + (4:36 @3) 7.15 km (4:42 / km) +51m 4:32 / km
ahr:135 max:164 slept:7.5 weight:65.8kg (sick) shoes: Adidas Adizero Adios 2 (2)

Short loop before dropping Grace off at her Grandma's and then running down to the station.
5 PM

Running 1:07:04 intensity: (8:58 @1) + (45:02 @2) + (13:04 @3) 11.04 km (6:05 / km) +223m 5:31 / km
ahr:135 max:154 (sick) shoes: Inov8 Trailroc 245

Tentatively planned to do a hills session at Byron's Walk to make up for yesterday's change of plan but the mud made it far to difficult so shelved that plan. Did a steady mud/hill/terrain run instead.

7 PM

Running 46:04 intensity: (2:58 @1) + (36:35 @2) + (6:26 @3) + (5 @4) 10.18 km (4:31 / km) +43m 4:26 / km
ahr:136 max:161 slept:6.0 weight:66.1kg (sick) shoes: Adidas Adizero Adios 2 (2)

Had a bad nights sleep due to the cold. I had set the alarm for 6:10am to try and fit in a short run before having to get Grace ready and to her Grandma's (Amy now back at work part time and building up to 5 days in 6 weeks or so) but that was a loss with limited sleep.

Hectic day of work and then heavy traffic for the commute home as well as a cold and tired, so was a grumpty git, and not in the mood for a run when I got home. Dragged myself out for an easy run as I knew that was the best thing for me.

ahr:129 max:154 slept:8.0 weight:66.1kg (sick) shoes: Adidas Adizero Adios 2 (2)

Been feeling sniffly in the mornings and evenings the last couple of days and despite poppoing the Zinc + vit C it seams to have manifested itself as yet another cold. Hopefully nothing too bad and will take things day by day but should be ok if I keep things easy.
