Run 1:30:00 [3]
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon

What neil said
"From Birchin Clough to Sandy Heys Trig, Downfall, Ammo Box, Fairbrook Naze, Fairbrook and back along the river. It hurt quite alot. We talked quite abit about training and all the different methods of using heart rate and paces etc, but we decided that just going for a run on tough ground with hills and as fast as you could, is far the most effective"
i thought i was going to be a very painful run after i decided to slip on a rock and go for a swim in the river smashed my knee and shin in the process but once i got moving the pain went away. The first main hill really hurt Neil left me for dead but once at top was much better and cruised along.
Looking forward to the nxt adventure!!

Orienteering race 1:54:00 [3]
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon

UK Long champs

Main plan today was to try and have a clean run!! Which is something i seem to find very hard!!! I wasn't going to bad for the first map made a few little ones but nothing to major for my standards!!! After map change i seemed to stuff a few up number 21 i think i was a bit to confident after getting the last two really easily in the same area and then over shot this one, 24 i choose a bad route choice and lost a bit of time, 25 i went out wrong direction after not checking my compass, and then 28 i went down the wrong stream and lost a bit there. I think i finished about 15min back which is still quite a bit but i was mainly happy just to not make like 20min of mistakes!!!! I think i will try and get nxt weekend cleanly then speed up again see how that goes.

Orienteering race 35:00 [3]
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon

Was a middle event didnt really mean anything for elites and was just JWOC trials so no one was going for it so i went rather slow myself just trying to Orienteer, made one stupid route choice which made me run up a big hill for no reason all good training i guess. Had some old me racing really hard around me was kinda annoying really
