Orienteering 1:03:20 [3] 9.2 km (6:53 / km) +350m 5:47 / km
shoes: Mudroc 290s

SoSOL 6 - Kinnoull Hill

Howler to 8, which was a rather easy control. Committed a few cardinal sins of not checking the compass, not stopping when I knew I'd gone too far and not wondering why I was contouring the hill instead of going up.

Apart from that, it was okay but I realised once Will H caught me up I'd been meandering a bit, so pushed on a little to stay with him and do some back and forth to the finish.

Was fun, especially when I got going. Not very convinced by the new map though...

Run 22:12 [3] 4.97 km (4:28 / km) +50m 4:15 / km
shoes: Waverider 19s

I'd wanted to go to the gym in the morning, but a late bedtime due to excessive pizza eating and a 2nd day of terrible DOMS put me off.

Another run squeezed in before dinner, but today I felt much more springy and so pushed a bit harder. Not great breathing, but I think it was just from starting quickly in cold air.

Run 30:30 [3] 5.8 km (5:16 / km) +70m 4:58 / km
shoes: Waverider 19s

Squeezing in a jog before pasta. Hopelessly DOMSy, and not in a good way at all. Very slug like

Run 24:19 [3] 4.97 km (4:54 / km) +50m 4:40 / km
shoes: Waverider 19s

I'd planned on doing intervals, but the insta-doms were real and a very brief localised rain shower on the house was enough to put me off.
Then I felt a bit guilty, so I got out for a jaunt around the standard circuit - only backwards, to keep things fresh and exciting.

A fox got into the Halloween spirit and gave me a proper spook, right at the darkest bit of the run. Very spoopy stuff
