Note
(rest day)

I seem to have inflamed the tendon on the top of my big toe. Otherwise ok, but hard to walk. We had a lovely drive home with Ivor and WHB. Lots of stopping off for gentle wanders and refreshment, to help us all get over our fragilities.

As ever, we come back saying next year we'll manage a heb3:

XC / road / hill race 1:38:00 [3] 13.0 mi (7:32 / mi)

Harris half. I was going ok early on with steady 7 min miling pace, but then my right calf started to cease up, and my left Achilles started to tighten too on the hill that started 5 miles in (and went on for the next few miles) so I started to hobble a bit. I was pretty nauseous too which didn't help. Just stunning though. Great weekend of fun with friends old and new!

7 AM

Trail running 42:00 [3] 3.92 mi (10:43 / mi)

Glorious morning for a run. Still and cool and clear. Continuing the 7hills theme, I went from home to work via the 7 hills anticlockwise route, finishing down the controversial johnson terrace route.

Stopped twice, once to chat to a fellow runner on the top of Arthur's seat, and again after I tripped on Calton Hill. Really quite bloody knees, and I thought I was going to vom.

Lovely though. Big smiles!
12 PM

Trail running 44:10 [3] 5.2 mi (8:30 / mi)

Blackford, Frandy's, Myreside Rd, HP and canal back. My knees felt good.
5 PM

Trail running 12:44 [3] 1.56 mi (8:10 / mi)

Run home from work in an oh-shit-I-am-so-late-and-stressed and then launched myself into a full evening of complicated and finely-tuned logistics. Stress levels off the scale.

WOC team to not scraping the VHI team in under a year:

Is that some sort of talent-implosion record??? Hats off to Janine for a great year.

Trail running 55:00 [3] 7.0 mi (7:51 / mi)

Lunchtime run.

Work, roseburn cycle path, Ravelston dykes, corstorphine hill, then tried to do the 7 hills route to the canal, but rather embarassingly failed (lots of new builds recently) and ended up coming back through Murrrayfield. Felt good and going hard in the first half, then stomach cramps all the way home.

Off-road running 22:39 [3] 3.05 mi (7:26 / mi)

With Ray, who runs on grass around the meadows uncomfortably fast for a lunchtime jaunt.
