Running (Trail) 16:30 [3]
shoes: New Balance 1080 v.2 (Orange)
Ran from the campsite, across the main bridge towards town and then turned left to follow the track alongside the river. Ran out of track after about 9 minutes... a good point to turn back.
Stretched the calves and quads afterwards.

Calves feeling very tight so I didn't go at normal pace and then stopped here to do some short stretches.

To Clapham Common (7:50) and to the central domed building over the muddy grass. SE to Eagle Pond, around Mount Pond and then straight N to the other side of the park. Kept going clockwise around the edge until I'd got back to the street towards Dave's.
L) upper/mid lat hamstring feeling tired.

Running warm up/down (Grass) 6:50 [3]

Round most of the course. Sped up for the final 800m or so.
Running warm up/down (Grass/drills) 5:00 [3]
shoes: Saucony Kilkenny 3 XC Spikes
Did so breathing exercises to clear out the phlegm, not much to get. Pretty much cold-free.
Running race (Cross-country) 38:23 [5]
shoes: Saucony Kilkenny 3 XC Spikes
Had decided to basically go hard the whole way. Dialled into a quick but sustainable pace. Was able to motor over the last km so still no being aggressive enough in the early to mid stages.
Guess at the time. They said it was 9km, think it was further.
12th I think. Probably not enough to make the county team. Ran as well as I could though really. Two weeks of a heavy cold and another week getting over it didn't help with preparation. The 10km wasn't a confidence booster either. Probably could've got 11th bloke had I gone a touch harder.

Had eaten before coming to the gym. Thought I'd just get on the bike but the thought of TWO days off running IN A ROW sickened me.
Running on a full stomach almost sickened me too.
General Strengthening 1:30 [2]
Good stretch-out afterwards but forgot the quads.
