Note
(rest day)

Don't feel too bad. Recovery time must be beginning to improve.

Orienteering race 1:38:16 [5] 12.96 km (7:35 / km)
shoes: VJ Falcons 2

East Anglian Champs. Croxton Heath. Won by Eric. +41%. Significantly better than yesterday. 1min error on 1st control and looks like 90s on 15 where I left the control off line, went through some extra green and then took a safe route into a control that turned out to be hung fairly visibly. Ran better - still slow but at least managed to put some sustained effort in throughout the race.

Orienteering race 1:53:29 [4] 12.51 km (9:04 / km)
shoes: VJ Falcons 2

Thetford Thrash @ High Lodge Warren. Black. +60%. Poor run - cold from doing car parking I never really warmed up and don't think I got beyond training run intensity and even that felt like a struggle. Achilles sore. Hard work and poor time but at least I've done a black course for the first time in years. CUOC 40th anniversary / DrongO reunion dinner in evening - great time had by all.

Strength and Conditioning (Circuits) 40:00 [3]

Worryingly sore right achilles in morning... did morning calf raises left only (left achilles feels fine). It calmed down a bit with repeat icing. Was careful to avoid putting pressure on it during circuits. It felt much better afterwards. I sometimes think that doing anything which isn't running is better for my achilles than complete rest.

Running intervals 30:00 [5]
shoes: VJ Falcons 2

Meadows intervals. 1k @ 4'02-4'05. No visible improvement yet but I was tired from the weekend. Drove up with my sister who did this session for the first time and seemed to enjoy it. DIdn't get enough warm up. R. achilles fairly sore but a bit better when I tried driving forwards with my knees.
