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.

Back, via the park. Forgot how steep the climb up to Isabella was.

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.
