steady run warm up/down 25:00 [3]
Best warm-up of week, steady to start then a some stretching and strides.
orienteering race 26:00 [3]
Day 6 Grandtully
Middle distance, started uphill (and lost loads of time start-4) despite running as hard as I could! Course then turned downhill and I sped up and worshipped my compass till the end :-)
6th, more than 2 mins down but had a 10-08 start... all others had late starts so tracking must have helped a bit - probably more in confidently running hard into controls rather than heavy undergrowth.
Reasonably happy with runs this week, near or in the mix, so not too unfit. Need to try to sort various aches (right knee on downhills).
