Race report. I'll put up my GPS later.
Mullaghmeen LL1 - Brown
Started hard enough and just died a death. Legs wouldn't go uphill at the end and I lost a lot of time on 12 and 21 purely through lack of ability to move. The issue was my pacing I feel. When I felt ok I was running hard and then I was crashing hard. A tough run yesterday probably didn't help.

St. Anne's parkrun.
Aim was for 20. I knew I wasn't as fit as last one of these. The course was backwards compared to last time which was fine. Started off fine on the 4mpk mark, just slighty above. Picked it up to the right speed. I could feel the body starting to struggle though and I slowly slowed down, even as I tried hard. 3km was slow and tried to just hang on for number 4 and run the last one fast but I was tightening up and couldn't keep the stride open. As normal enough for me my forearms got quite sore, even though it was warm. The first 500m of the last km I had nothing and could only pick it up with 500 to go. Bit dissappointed to not get 20 again, but a reasonable time when I consider my training recently.
km Splits
4:03
3:59
4:05
4:08
4:07
Looking at the splits in more detail, while my km splits look quite good, my 500m splits are all over the place, with 1.5 as low as 3:49. I need to work on that consistent pacing to run my best times.

Easy run in the park with Brian A. Just went out for a chat really and cruised along happy out. Body felt really good to be running again which was nice.
Went home had a quality lasagne and watched some rugby.

Note
What a terrible weekend for orienteering. Sunday was a lot better than Saturday however.
It looks to me like the cause of the nausea could be the anti-histamine tablets that I was taking all of last week. The first stomach pains on Friday came on relatively shortly after I took one. I stopped taking them on the weekend anyway though I don't feel 100% still on Monday. I'll take it easy at the start of this week
Monday: Climbing
Tuesday: easy run
Wednesday: today or Friday for a CNOC committee meeting
Thursday: crusaders thursday session
Friday: ?
Saturday: Crusaders hills
Sunday: Mullaghmeen LL

Gravity climbing with Gina and Killian. Luke and Brian were also about.
Again focused on blacks, but I had done the easier ones last week. Got the super crimpy one by just stretching past all the crimps to a nice hold and then eventually did another one that had my forearms in bits. Then I flashed a blue, it wasn't a particularly hard one and had some more fun.
