Training Log: fluceluce

Running warm up/down 26:00 [1] 3.2 mi (8:07 / mi) +65m 7:39 / mi

Run down to and round endcliffe park

Running (intervals) 19:58 [2] 2.8 mi (7:08 / mi)

Decided I would do the intervals as they were long so I could take them easy - kept an even pace with the aim of keeping my breathing steady and not stressed at all. Think I achieved it pretty well.

Note
slept:6.5 (sick)

Woke up feeling a bit rough, had breakfast and then was almost sick straight after.
Felt aweful on the minibus on the way there but didn't have much time to think when we arrived - got changed and went straight to the start.
After running felt no better - felt worse and worse all evening.

Note

Loz had a great run to come in 4th and set Laura up to chase down a couple not far ahead. At the spectator Laura was in 2nd with Anne just behind and Chloe just behind her. A tense wait at the finish, then Anne entered the field running really hard just ahead of Laura and it stayed that way to the line! ShUOC girls were 3rd! wooooo :-)

orienteering race 30:19 [3] 4.1 km (7:24 / km) +45m 7:01 / km

ShUOC girls 1st leg of the relay - set off at a steady pace, turned out to be the only pace I could run without being sick. 1st gaffle was with Rachel Majumdar and Jess Halliday, managed to stay with them. Was running very slow but spiking everything! bit of a wobble that cost me 10s at most going to 6.... came through spectator then there were a couple of controls the same for every1 before another gaffle where I was with Mairead and Liz Bridge and Becky Hoare. While the terrain was slower I stayed with them but the last control was down a track so they overtook me and got about 50- 100m on me going into the finish. Finished in the first pack - about 5th? Jess had a great 2nd gaffle and was a couple of minutes ahead I think....
Finally I may understand the pace I should be running for a clean run hehe
