Note
(rest day)
No time for training, but a tough itinerary of art galleries followed by an internal flight up to Akureryi. Picked up a car, drove north and went whale watching out of Husavik - nice calm sea, but bloody cold nonetheless. Saw some humpbacks at close quarters then some dolphins, really great!

Running 1:00:00 [2] 11.0 km (5:27 / km)
Reykjavik is my kind of city - small, not too busy and not many shops. We still went in most of them though. Went for an afternoon run to explore a bit further - saw an artificial geyser and the Pearl.

Sorting out a few last minute things before heading off to Iceland. Arrived at our hotel in Reykjavik at about 1.00am.

Running 30:00 [3] 5.0 km (6:00 / km)
Ran along to the Hallamshire club house but had no intention of doing the session. Did the warm up with Jen and Kelly then headed for home in the pouring rain. Off to Iceland tomorrow for a belated honeymoon!!

Orienteering 10:00 [3] 2.0 km (5:00 / km)
Some sprints in Graves Park with Jen to check out the ultrasprint map - I was worried that it would be incomprehensible to anyone other than myself, but Jenny coped just fine. It will be very difficult in a race situation though.
Orienteering 15:00 [4] 4.0 km (3:45 / km)
SYO sprint from Ruskin planned by Mike. Fun course but I was thoroughly unmotivated.
Running 30:00 [3] 5.0 km (6:00 / km)
Jogging at Graves Park and to Ruskin.

Track session 25:00 [5] 4.0 km (6:15 / km)
For some reason I decided it would be a good idea to go along to Hallamshire. Got half way through the strides and drills and it suddenly seemed like a less good idea. 1km in 3.00 followed by 5x200, rest, 5x200, rest, then I called it a day.
Running 55:00 [2] 10.0 km (5:30 / km)
To track and back all on by own. Saw the aftermath of devastation from the Great Sheffield Flood II - most depressingly a load of ruined barrels of Kelham Island ale outside the Fatcat.

(rest day)
Day off to lick my wounds. This is a frustrating end to a winter and spring that went so well, and yet another WOC missed after my dsq in the long last year. But I guess that's sport and it wouldn't be worth doing if it was easy. Now to find some new challenges for the summer and secretly plot how to take over the world next year...
