Training Log Archive: Chas

Home from Leeds. Mostly traffic-free route: Leeds + Liverpool canal towpath to Shipley then roads through Bradford (urgh) before getting onto the Spen Valley and Calder Valley greenways. Road back from Huddersfield. Unfortunately into the wind all the way.

Event: YHOA Night League & Northern Night Championships
 

Golf. Saturday comp over 15 holes. 22 Stableford points.
Driving poorly again.

Northern Night Champs, Ilkley Moor.
Green course (M55+) 3.8km 145m.
I had to decide between running my correct age class or running up to Blue to chase YHOA Night League points. Decided to stick to the short course as my Achilles is a little dodgy. It felt fine running although I was cautious on the downhill sections especially where it was a hard surface.
Orienteering was slightly disappointingly simple. Only one real mistake where I somehow crossed the reentrant at #4 without seeing it. 5 seconds ahead of Pete Haines on his back garden.

Based on mpk it would have been very close between James and I on Blue.

Huddersfield, Buckstones, Denshaw, Greenfield and back over Saddleworth Moor. Lovely spring-like afternoon but with a stiff south-westerly.

Run from Equi-trek in Stocksbridge while Mikey was interviewed. Around Underwood reservoir then up to Langsett and back along the old railway. Lovely morning. Achilles a bit grumbly in the last 10 mins.

Golf with Mick. Matchplay off scratch. Finished all square. Approx 35 Stableford points for 17 holes. Achilles slightly niggly.

Garage circuits.

Golf. Pro's mid week comp over 17 holes. 31 Stableford points.

Arrunden circuit. Still a bit tired from the weekend so just a steady 5 today. Very wet on Arrunden lane.
