SW Sprint Champs - Prologue 1st

Had scrappy start but then got it under control only to run straight into a dead end. Not happy with how scrappy the run was but everyone struggled so still had a 1 min lead going into the final (the times of the prologue and final are added together).

SW Sprint Champs - Final 1st

An hour or so later was off again this time much better nav, only the legs we feeling yesterdays and this mornings efforts. Kept a solid pace dragging my legs round (losing a second+ to jim on each control), but on c14 I managed to get the time back and hold on till the end (only 4 seconds in it).

All in all was a really nice bit of training on some well planned courses :)

Running (ROAD) warm up/down 25:00 [2] 5.0 km (5:00 / km)
shoes: Salming Speed 1

Running (ROAD) race (Parkrun) 16:19 [5] 5.0 km (3:16 / km)
shoes: Salming Speed 1

Official time now updated the guy who was timing at the finish told me 16:16 :(. Was running solo off the front with no watch so pacing was very questionable. Feel like there is potential to run faster if I taper properly and have a watch hopefully sub 16 by the end of the year

Rolling/Stretching 30:00 [1]

3 PM

Swimming (open) 15:00 [1]

Water was nice and calm unfortunately it was also freezing but a nice little post race recovery.

shoes: Inov8 x-talons 212

Burrator solo o training. Generally really good nav wasn't pushing too hard just enjoying a reasonably technical map, mix of moor and green forest. Slowly getting better at my terrain running and trusting my nav.
Garmin decided to die, so used my phone which was also terrible coz of the lack of signal on Dartmoor.

Not really in the right mind set for anything longer plus doing this terrible route completely put me off extending it to 10km. Also the weather made it that bit more unpleasant but at least it was 35mins eyoc geeking.

SINS Middle 1st
Again treated it as a race, went hard from the start making only a couple of 5 second mistakes when I was stood next to the control plus a stupid error at c7. Was able to make full use of my fitness levels on the climbs as well really good focus on nav the whole way through. Happy with how I raced over the weekend against good competition, definitely put me on course for so more good training before EYOC.
