Sunday Sep 25

trail run 33:27 [2]
in the woods up the hill from the studio, st remy.

First jog after two weeks of illness (with I thought two or three days of near health inbetween). Kept it easy.

Saturday Sep 24

other 20 [3]
toning exercises. getting back gently into doing exercise

Sunday Sep 11

orienteering race 1:30:00 [2]
Jura
Chappelle des Bois

Interregionale. As planned only ran part of the course. But I ran long enough to be really friggging sick the next week. Couldn't breathe the Tuesday following.

Saturday Sep 10

orienteering 1:30:00 [2]
Juras, near Chapelle des Bois.

Set an overly ambitious course given that I had a sore strep throat.

Thursday Sep 8

forest run 46:16 [3]
Bois Ste Cathérine
Up the hill from the studio. Feel like I'll be running here a lot :)

wore baseball(?!) shoes adn went terrain-running for the most part, with a little bit on trails... wore running shorts so legs got a little bit scratched :) wood was varied, flat, clean, ferns, brambles, depressions and pits... could make a nice _small_ area for a mapper...

throat and above still sore, ditto glands.

Wednesday Sep 7

Note
didn't run yesterday. feeling a bit under the weather (which today is blue skies, humid...)
with gunk up the arse end of my nasal passages and slightly sore glands the last couple of days. also tired. will go for a run later though, and rest after!
trail run hills 29:55 [4] +150m
three times up and down bois stecatherine. wore o-shoes, so much more power and control than my trail-running shoes
Note
1h30 carto Orsay, 1H30 OCAD

Tuesday Sep 6

Note
1hr mapping Orsay, 2hrs of OCAD. Anybody know why I can't open templates in OCAD6?

Monday Sep 5

trail run hills 30:24 [3] * +150m
From the studio, up the hill and down three times. I'd consider wearing o-shoes for this one. I wonder also about doing it in terrain rather than along hte paths. Not sure it's clean enough to run fast, and it would make map-reading tough.

Sunday Sep 4

trail run 58:43 [3] *
Bois de la Madeleine, dark! Frontale would have been more useful than the glasses :)

on the map in just under twenty minutes, quick jog around, too dark to be worth descending the trails I went up, so went via Chevreuse, back beside the bike path. Nice enough run.

Earlier went back to CiteU and recovered some of my maps incl;uding Inishbofin, Scarr, NOC'05 but NOT WOC'04 from Sweden. sniff sniff. Bugger!

Saturday Sep 3

trail run 1:25:48 [3]
St-Remy, out past ferme de Coubertin (yep, Olympics de Coubertin), up the forest trails to chateau de Meridon, then around Chateau de Breteuil, down for a stretch on roads into Choisel, back up to the plateau to Meridon and back to base.

Not bad, a bit humid and motivation was lacking, but it's a nice run.

Friday Sep 2

trail run 44:30 [3] +80m
ST-REMY
Moved house yesterday, all was going swimmingly until I realised (having unloaded the van) that I left the floor-mat roll at the CiteU. Which wouldn't be so bad if it didn't have my glossy Inishbofin map, my Scarr map, and the small matter of all my maps from WOC in Sweden and NOC in Norway. DISASTER.

Went back to look for them, there was no sign... left a note... or two... I really don't want some ignorant person to throw them out... as it is I checked all the bins in the kitchens... nothing :(

So anyway, apart from that it's great. I went for a walk around this morning to digest breakfast, people have impressive gardens (not size-wise!) here, and I got several bonjours, more in one morning than in a month in Paris :)

Than went for a run up forest paths which start <200m from my studio up onto the plateau and to the end of the woods and back. Might be a nice place for terrain intervals if I ever decide such things are a good idea. There are lots of decent-sized pit/depression things up on the plateau, might make for a nice sprint/middle map.
