ORIENTEERING race 54:00 [4] *** 7.2 km (7:30 / km) +240m 6:26 / km
spiked:21/26c slept:5.5 shoes: OLWAY Tigers

Linarce O (DVO) Brown Course.
Brambles and steep in places (nearly died on one of the controls falling into a pile of sharp rocks) apart from that, twas good. My mate Steve planned the courses - a little different from the originals due to controlling power crazyness. Nice course with sharp twists and turns. Made a mess fo those controls where the map didn't really represent the ground. i.e. shallow depression at edge of clearing; the depression was over 50m from said clearing. But that's just the map for you. Miserable day and nice to get out.

RUNNING warm up/down 15:00 [1]

Freezing and rain to warm up and down so didn't really do much. Does shivering count?

Note

The weather sucks.

ahr:168 max:180 slept:8.0 shoes: Hardrocks

Different run this time - and running solo in the morning for the 1st time in a long while.
Springvale - Crookes - Crosspool - Rivelin Valley - Stannington Towers - Rivelin Valley - Bole Hill - Springvale

Actually went on paths i've never been before and I'm getting a bit pissed off with dogs. Lovely temperature for running though..

Note

DOGS

- in Venice there were a lot of lose dogs and they were 'ok' as most were being called back - Bole Hill on the other hand is where idiots in Sheffield seem to walk their dogs. Got jumped and nearly bitten twice. I wonder how the owners would like it if I jumped all over them and tried to bite their arms off??

DOWNHILL

also after running on the roads so much at the moment I've lost the ability to run on anything uneven especially downhill or covered in leaves... need to work on that!

RUNNING warm up/down 15:00 [1]

Stretches and warm up/down

CLIMBING (Bouldering) 1:30:00 [3]
shoes: Boreal Jokers

Purple and Browns this week - they are pretty hard but me Jon, Jeni and Kate enjoyed it!

Note

Gingerbread Latte in Starbucks is good, but doesn't compare to a Latte overlooking the Grande Canale next to Rialto...
