12 PM
Cycling 38:05 [3] 16.07 km (2:22 / km) +110m 2:17 / km
ahr:96 max:128
Meeting a friend for (outdoor) lunch was the perfect excuse to go for a hardish cycle - or was it the other way around?
Felt strong again, which was nice, plus the traffic lights were so favourable I thought I’d drunk some felix felicis.
Cycling 40:51 [3] 15.7 km (2:36 / km) +90m 2:32 / km
ahr:118 max:156
Harder work on the way back. The felicis had definitely worn off, nowhere more so than on Putney Bridge, which felt even busier than usual.
Strength 45:00 [3]
Two rounds, plus some stretching. Not as bad as expected.
4 PM
Cycling 11:46 [3] 4.1 km (2:52 / km) +44m 2:43 / km
ahr:117 max:143
To Wimbledon, in the main road
Cycling 11:11 [3] 3.74 km (2:59 / km) +47m 2:49 / km
ahr:121 max:157
Back, via the park. Forgot how steep the climb up to Isabella was.
Orienteering 59:59 [3] 11.47 km (5:14 / km) +69m 5:05 / km
ahr:122 max:135
Wimbledon March O Challenge (1h score)
I’d pre planned a 10k course (26/32 controls) with a few options to lengthen or shorten - was a bit ahead of pace halfway so decided to add a control and then another - the second one I shouldn’t have as I ran out of time at the end, not helped by controls taking 15-20 secs to beep.
Caned it to the finish and the watch stopped at 59:59, but when it downloaded to the App that changed to 60:01, so I picked up 30 penalty points. Oh well.
The bigger issue is that the L calf got quite bad halfway round, as did the R achilles and also the R lower back. Really should have stopped, but it didn’t get totally bad so I carried on. Paying for it now.
A nice course though and nice to be out.
