Note
(rest day)

Took a day off the o-ing and traumatised laurence by dragging him on the rollercoaster at landmark in carrbridge. He sportingly stood on his tiptoes when the man checked his height, then cried the whole trip. Man did i feel like a bad mother!

Getting selected for stuff is a bit expensive. Eoc = £70 accreditation then £40 relay entry and £80 for each other discipline then accomodation, flights, transport, food, petrol and grovelling to get the time off work.

Short session in phorp. Lovely terrain except for the felled bits. Feeling good.
11 AM

Orienteering - training 53:00 [3] 8.0 km (6:38 / km)

Phorp. Long training. Good fun but sleeting and i only had an o top on. Bad choice as i was feeling really fresh until i took a road option then my knee was excruciating. My glutes and back were also sore. Walked some bits to let the knee ease which made me really cold. Got around all 14 and pretty interesting terrain to. Hands got too cold to hold a compass so put it in my pocket and did the last 10 without pretty sucessfully.
4 PM

Orienteering - training 1:04:00 [3] 8.5 km (7:32 / km)

Culbin. time inc warm up / down. Loved it. What's not to love? dropped time on one controk thrpugh navigation and a lot of others as i was determined to find the flags which were small and faded. They were always where you thougt they pught to be, just a bit hidden.

JK relays. Going ok. Missed number 2 slightly, and route to 8 was dire. Legs were too tired to chase Charlotte down, and Bex was well away. Pleased with 3rd.
