Orienteering 35:00 [5] 6.0 km (5:50 / km)
It's been ages since I've done any 'real' orienteering that's not around Venice, on a map that I made, or on Burbage in minging weather, so this was a lot of fun. Score event on Royds Hall planned by Dickie Wren. Pretty mad in a mass start of about 100 people and a surprisingly good area.
Running 1:15:00 [2] 12.0 km (6:15 / km)
Warm up for the orienteering then a run from Royds Hall to Rosie's house along the Calderdale Way. Really nice sunny, crisp day. Had an argument with a farmer when I tried to follow the footpath through his farmyard and got completely lost when I reached a wrong join on the map I had created from dowloaded bits of OS. It looked like all the roads and paths joined up but it was about 3km out on a parallel valley.

Running drills and strides in Pensford, nr Bristol. Short, sharp session on a flattish field. Nice misty morning.
Running 25:00 [2] 4.0 km (6:15 / km)
Steady run from Grandparents' house up a big hill to find a flat place for some strides.

Running 40:00 [2] 7.0 km (5:43 / km)
Xmas card delivery run, not quite as complex route as Mike took, but it did involve a big hill early in the morning. Blew away the cobwebs from the Hallamshire do last night.

Running 25:00 [5] 4.0 km (6:15 / km)
Hallamshire session, Hollybush Hills. 3 sets of 3 different kinds of reps - flat and up, up and flat, then up and up. The last climb was a killer and my legs were so full of lactate that I could barely stagger to the top. Shouldn't have been fun, but it sort of was.
Running 35:00 [2] 6.0 km (5:50 / km)
To club house, to the session and home.

Running 40:00 [2] 7.0 km (5:43 / km)
Steady up Loxley valley with Jen. My legs felt very flat today.
Climbing 1:00:00 [1]
Another full-on session this time mainly with Gareth and Nails. Just about finished off the blues and had a crack at a load of others.

Track session 45:00 [5] 10.0 km (4:30 / km)
Wow this was a toughie. Strides and drills then 6mins, 5mins, 4mins x2 with two mins between runs. All very confusing with some of the runs around the outside of the track including a ramp, sharp u turns and running the opposite way around. I guess this made it less monotonous but it still felt like a long session. The two 5min reps were all on track and I was a few paces short of a 5 min mile on both of them.
Running 55:00 [2] 10.0 km (5:30 / km)
To track with Mike and back with Rob and Rob as well. Dead.

Circuits 40:00 [3]
ShUOC circuits, with the extra excitement of christmas music AND going clockwise around the room.
Running 55:00 [3] 11.0 km (5:00 / km)
Late leaving the house so very speedy run to S10 then a run out to Crosspool with Nails and Little Rob after the session.
