Hopton. Course 3
Hilly. Reasonable run. Frustratingly had to help out someone earlier on the course who couldn't believe that he was in the wrong place.

Ludlow Urban Race. Course 2

More an eyesite test than an orienteering test. Will I ever get to like this format?
Better result than I was expecting. Cumulation of early errors led to significant demotivation.

Cycling 8:00 [3] 1.6 mi (5:00 / mi)
shoes: Lidl Cycling Shoes 2011

Chilly morning again (mainly due to strong breeze) and back to LS top with fleece underneath.

Running 29:14 [3] 6.5 km (4:30 / km)

Thursday Run.
Relatively easy run as the last formal exercise before the SINS weekend.
Didn't feel too strained and felt that I could continue at the same pace for longer.

7 AM

Cycling 6:00 [3] 1.4 mi (4:17 / mi)
shoes: Lidl Cycling Shoes 2011

Home -> Pool

Swimming 40:05 [4] 2.0 km (20:03 / km)

Pool seemed very busy to start, but only affected the first 4 lengths (when speed is not representative anyway). Started very strong - possibly too strong because a definite decrease in speed through the water from length 28/30 (loss of poise due to fatigue?), though felt that I was still putting in just as much effort. Lost about 15s over the last 10 lengths. Overall a good session, helped by having other strong swimmers in the lane.

8 AM

Cycling 14:00 [3] 3.0 mi (4:40 / mi)
shoes: Lidl Cycling Shoes 2011

Pool -> Home -> Work.
Had to go via home to pick up glasses. Then stuck at crossing for 3-4 mins.

5 PM

Cycling 8:00 [3] 1.6 mi (5:00 / mi)
shoes: Lidl Cycling Shoes 2011

Work -> Home
Nice ride home in summer attire (short shorts and SS top).

Good session.
