Event: SROC Red Rose Classic
 

Rolling/Stretching 10:00 [1]

My shins are in pain after smashing them on the limestone pavement so stretching was pretty hard.
11 AM

Running (TRAIL) warm up/down 10:45 [2] 1.53 km (7:00 / km) +105m 5:13 / km
shoes: Inov8 x-talons 230

Orienteering (FOREST) race 27:13 [4] 4.8 km (5:40 / km) +107m 5:06 / km
shoes: Inov8 x-talons 230

Hampsfell Middle - 4th M18 (14th overall)
Altogether really disappointed with how I ran the course including my prep for it. The mess started when I ran past c3 and then followed it up by taking a crap route to c4. However, at c11 I was level pegging with Pete. Then going into c12 it all went to shit. Instead of slowing down I chose to run randomly and hope for the best, a habit I thought I had got rid off. Nevertheless, I found myself wondering around checking every crag/any feature until I found the control chucking away 2+mins. This isn't the first time I've made a mistake towards the end of a race so will definitely be focusing on this in prep for the jk.

Lancaster Selection Sprint - 2nd M18 (10th overall)
Was a pretty solid run, again was good at keeping to my plan. I basically played it safe which cost me time, however, was probably the first clean run at a sprint race for a while. Trapped my self on the way out of c9 so yh definitely lost 4 seconds there.

The absolute dream ~ 4 sets of 4×400 100 jog between reps
Strongest I've felt in a while, finally getting close to pb pace. My right achilles started to hurt by the end but don't think it's anything to worry about. Hopefully my calf's will be ok tomorrow seeing as I didn't wear spikes this time.
