Running 48:55 [3] 10.45 km (4:41 / km) +100m 4:28 / km
slept:7.0 shoes: Mizuno Wave Rider 22 Blue
Nice day so stuck to the plan of an easy run from Caerphilly to Abertridwr and back. Pace was reasonably good as (1) ascent was a lot less perceptible and (2) legs felt a little bit better than they did on Weds/Thur. Still, was a few k further than I intended to run today.
Came back down the railway track - which was definitely downhill, but also definitely had a strong camber down to the left the whole way.
Several positives, but can't say I'm looking forward to trying to run hard tomorrow.

Spent a few hours enjoying the sun in Caerphilly after. Seems today is first day of the year the path over the "islands" by the castle is open.

Note
So, JK started today - and I wasn't prepared to pay the entry fee again.
Gather from the likes of Nopesport that the best bits from the sprint are:
* the website uses silly colours
* the results website is unreliable
* the silent start that orienteers keep asking for is too quiet
Really selling this "orienteering" to me! Didn't the sun shine? Wasn't there a fast paced and technical sprint race where the best in the country won? Should I take the complete absence of anyone mentioning the actual orienteering to be that it was (a) underwhelming or (b) excellent?
I walked around a castle and got a sun tan. Sure, there were geese and geese shit everywhere - but fundamentally, what I've got to say about today is a positive :-)
