3 AM

Running warm up/down 15:00 [3]

A few of us went to watch the start. Up there Matt Whipple was about to race with his trusty Petzl headtorch which I offered to swap for my spare torch which looked better. Good job I did swap as his torch ran out 5 minutes after the start and his spare was his phone.

Got up at quarter-to-three expecting to run at 3-something. Didn't actually start until 5.15. Had plenty of time to walk to to changeover and back to the camping multiple times.
5 AM

Orienteering (Harvester Leg 3) 51:30 [3] 6.5 km (7:55 / km) +275m 6:32 / km

Harvester Leg 3 for team UBOC Ridge of Death. Bit disappointed not to get to run in the night. First orienteering in a while. Just kept my head up and followed my compass for the most part. Poor direction out of 2 so was very near the wall on the way to 3. And was a bit scared to drop height on the way to nine. Managed to catch up 10 minutes and a couple of places.
2 PM

Cycle (Kirkstone Pass to Patterd) 15:33 [3] 9.3 km (1:40 / km) +79m 1:36 / km

Thought I would be free-wheeling all the way but it turns out Brothers Water is basically the same level as Ullswater so I had to do some cycling.

Running warm up/down 5:00 [3]

Fell Race (Arnison Dash) 15:14 [3] 2.4 km (6:21 / km) +300m 3:54 / km

Spotted this was on and seemed rude not to have another go this year. A young lad was fast at the start but he didn't walk very fast, Chris Edis then lead for a bit and then he and an Irish guy pulled away. I was third at the top about 30s back. Picked Chris off pretty easy then descended not like a pansy for a change, had to work for it, but got into first in the final field before the show ground.

75s quicker than last year's time (which was at the end of a couple of big days in the hills) but one second off Peter Bray's! Damn!!

Running warm up/down 10:00 [3]

4 PM

Cycle (Glenridding to Kirkstone) 30:28 [3] 10.1 km (3:01 / km) +409m 2:31 / km

After trying to spend a £15 voucher on something useful in Catstye Cam outdoor shop.

Mountain Biking (The Bog - Shelve Hill) 40:00 [3] 8.0 km (5:00 / km) +200m 4:27 / km

After work mountain biking. Went to check out a track I'd seen on a video but there was a lot of windblown so wasn't ever so fun, found a couple more though. Then my chain snapped so I freewheeled/walked home.

Cycle (The Bog) 15:00 [3]

Thursday Jun 22, 2017 #

Running (Malverns with Malley) 50:00 [3] 8.4 km (5:57 / km) +468m 4:39 / km

Straight up North Hill up the usual path. Skipped out the ridgey hill and went up to the top, off the far side and 'contouring' along a nice path back to the car.

Running warm up/down 5:00 [3]

Fell Race race (Pontesbury) 21:06 [3] 4.9 km (4:18 / km) +354m 3:10 / km

3rd :-(. Held back at the start, got to the front at the foot of the climb up which Paul Jones was behind me all the way. He got ahead on the descent and more on the climb. I then descended the main descent like a pansy, bottoming out in 5th, overtook Dom and Huw in the field.

Now joint first overall with two races to go, grrr.

Running warm up/down 5:00 [3]

Absolutely shot afterward and couldn't run

Running 10:00 [3]

Orienteering (BOK Blast Day 2) 42:29 [3]

Ate way too much for breakfast so started later than I should have. Did the whole course and put effort in for fair bit of it but not used to going fast on the flat for a while recently so was a bit behind. Orienteered well.

Running 10:00 [3]

Orienteering (BOK Blast Day 1) 50:00 [3]

Wanted to try it. Took it easy on the shin on downhills and skipped out the boring Clifton Village bit. Got round most of Cumberland basin okay. Felt shin only a little.

Friday Jun 9, 2017 #

Cycle (West Worcestershire) 1:30:00 [3]

Relaxed ride round the Teme Valley, Woodbury Hill and Abberley Hill. Abberley Hill however is a beast.
