Training Log Archive: Old Daniel

Horfield and Henleaze urban, ran from sports centre. ( Girls doing Swimathon). Hot day, trying quite hard probably about 43 mins for slightly truncated course. A bit over familiar with locality

Walk with Evie around back lanes

Potter round the estate with BOK Blast map M21 -just to understand scale. Back of knee really quite sore at start. About 26mins for course

Note walk with Evie, Laura and Grandpop at Bowood in the sun

AC run with Laura including Abbots pool loop. Nice warm spring day. Disappointingly back of knee hurt after interim stop -took quite a while to ease off

AC early am run with Laura including two ascents of the hill. Laura pushing me quite hard to go faster. City looking glorious in spring sunshine

BAOC Barosa first part in wood on 1:10000, rest in Sandurst on Urban 1:5000 inside RMAS but quite some of this actually in woods. Two races in one. First part not too difficult really only lost time by being control blind, perhaps should have been a little more accurate at 9 and 14. Second part scrappy particularly when going through scrappy bits of wood. Splits a bit all over the place but surprisingly? similar overall in both races. Warm sunny Spring day

Warm up. Back of knee started to hurt but ok for race

Lowland Walking SDW Alfriston to Eastbourne via coast including Seven Sisters and Beachy Head to way end and back to YHA 12 miles liked this one.
Might do another Long Distance trail next autumn

Lowland walking SDW M27 crossing to Alfriston. 13 miles mostly on ridge but mist restricted views

Cherhill Down - when we climbed up to the monument and white horse from the A4 as a small person's expedition I don't suppose we though of it as an orienteering area and I don't suppose it actually is never the less NWO do make the best of the area - some compass work, some route choice, nice and runnable and the contours give physical challenge. Tired quite badly towards end -probably the week caught up

Run too and from start/ finish at top of hill and some warming up
