Orienteering race 46:53 [5] *** 6.35 km (7:23 / km) +70m 7:00 / km
spiked:11/14c shoes: Orange Inov8
White Rose day 2 - Red Dike & Ebberston Moor
A much better day :) Really liked this area actually, was quite good apart from the odd bramble. Had a pretty clean run except no. 7 ~ lost about 3mis there, must have been within metres of it, but spent a while wandering in the pine trees before relocating off the road. Pleased for me that I did just go relocate though & not spend ages going in circles...so improvements there!
Physically easier than yesterday so I could run lots more, but still not as fast as usual - felt very out of breath, but prob tiredness contributing to that too.

spiked:10/15c shoes: Orange Inov8
White Rose Day 1 - Ebberston Moor & Troutsdale Moor
Didn't run very well, felt sluggish & slow. Was a pretty boring course && very easy, just a runners course really. Bit of a disaster on no. 2 but the rest was fine, maybe a little hesitant.

Love this event :)

Ran better than this morning but didn't really push as hard as I could at the end, came back a bit early.

Note
Got the results from my nutritionist ~ my diet is pretty good :) my race days are exactly how they should be && i just need to be more consistent over the others.
She says I need a little more fibre (already doing now) & something else that comes from oily fish & nuts which I can't remember the name of but may be hard cos I don't like those foods! Also I have to ever so slightly reduce fat intake and replace with 50g extra of carbohyrate a day so I have better energy levels.
I have put on weight though!! whoops, but I'm not getting too caught up on it cos I've not been training as much these last few months so it is natural & not healthy to start trying to lose it cos then i will end up not refueling properly like I did last year.
