Jog round corner on icy roads.

Only started garmin halfway there

Headtorch run around Gledhow and Roundhay Park. Pushed a few hills, but generally just steady away.

What I am doing seems to be starting to work, as I felt good on Sat eve, so no need to kill myself just yet...

Jog back home after CoT and Chemistry homework!

YHOA Night League - Walmgate Stray

2015 Race #5

Beat quite a few that would normally have beaten me easily. Quite pleased with this, considering that I normally finish something like 15-20th at these events.

To be fair, it wasn't very technical tonight, much more a case of who could run fast whilst looking briefly at the map. There was a lot of runnings in straight lines and a lot of fast running, and for once I ran well. So a decent result.

I was about 30s behind 2nd, which irks me somewhat, as I made at least 30s, maybe a minute or so of errors:
Over shot 1 (5s)
Too far left of 4 (10s)
Too far left of 5 (5s)
Hesitant to 6 (5s)
Wrong way out of control to 7 (10s)
Wrong thicket too early 8 (10s)
Too far E of control at 9 (10s)
Stopped by junior not able to open gate on way to 18 (10s)
Wrong path just junction to 19 (30s)
Hesitant to 21 (15s)
Wrong tree (too far E) to 23 (10s)
Slightly too far S to 24 (5s)
Too far N to 26 (15s)
Hesitant to 27 (5s)

Total 2mins 15s.

Tbf, only 3 of these were big enough errors to worry about normally, so it is good that I can nitpick to some extent.

Also some good fast setting and running on rough bearings on the stray section, so this was pleasing. More so, since I was pretty accurate, except for 26, where I drifted slightly too far left, possibly thinking the thicket on the stream was the one I was looking for, but I turned my head and it was only 20m to my right, so not terrible.

Winner did 30.45, my time was 35.02, so even with time loss, I would still have been 32.xx, so need to also find some running speed obviously...

Jog up to start then a couple of strides to get legs turning over. Could have done with more, but keen to get started.

Slow jog around York Uni campus

Easy run on icy roads with Lisa

AIRE Night Score - Ilkley Streets

2014 Race #4

Did ok, but really should have won it in hindsight.

Didn't spot #15 on map B (first map) and so ended up heading back to change maps very early.

Brief pause to wait for a map A, but then sort of panicked a bit and didn't spot #7 and #4.

My route was ok, but it would have been better done in reverse and done 1-7-4, then reverse what I did and drop the isolated one to the N (#9?)

Therefore bit disappointed with this.

Legs felt v heavy though and I did cover a reasonable distance, so runningwise was actually ok-ish

North Leeds FR club run

Started off a steady one, but the pace got wound up along Queenswood Drive and kept going. Managed to hang in there through a bad spot through Headingley (good) and then also was pushed hard up the hill back up Weetwood La (also good) and I was just hanging onto the back of Alex trying very hard not to let the elastic snap - definitely got stretched towards the top of the hill and I was working very hard. Legs felt dead going up Church La, but dug in and did the best I could.

Better run this. More to come though.

Not quite feeling well after Sundays run and also legs felt battered.
