Can't remember the last time I had proper pre-race nerves. Think it's something about having such a well-defined list of splits to hit

Running (out of date) race 9:30 [5] 3.0 km (3:10 / km)

Distance evening 3000

Went out looking for 9.30 and ran it almost spot on, must have been close to even splits although enough slippage to leave myself needing a 35s closing 200. Dipped on the line but was very much chasing the time not the position so don't mind too much.

Feel like everything went right since starting to recover from Thetford, ticked off all the steps and got the time, happy days. Possibly a bit underambitious, but pleased to chuck a marker out so early into the comeback, and will be fun to see how much can be taken off this over the next couple of months.

Out to Thetford with Luke and Aidan for some much-anticipated orienteering. Sadly since my partial map update 2 years ago, quite a lot has changed, but non-veg features were still mostly good enough to go by.

Scrappy, and missed a lot, but good practice nonetheless. Generally not reading the map enough and a bit too bullish with bearings. Sometimes making charitable interpretations of features to fit what I want to see. Need a touch of terrain fitness and a serious dose of paying attention to the map to get anything out of the races in the next couple of weeks.

Time to taper for 3000 on Weds first, though.
