Running race 41:41 [5] 11.0 km (3:47 / km)
Chatsworth fell race. Straight up a big hill at the start then more like an xc race, running on big trails, road and grass. Very fast second half with a lot of downhill and a long run back along the river. All very scenic with the entire estate covered in an icy white frosting and stags prancing around amongst the trees. I was surprised how hard it felt at the start until I remembered that I haven't really done any real hill training recently. Finished 4th, not far behind B8ND in 2nd but miles behind Simon Bailey.
Running warm up/down 30:00 [2] 5.0 km (6:00 / km)
Jogging about.
Climbing 1:00:00 [1]
At the works with Al and Jen. So empty today after a cracking day for the grit, which meant that there was no waiting for routes. Pretty tired though.

Running 1:35:00 [3] 18.0 km (5:17 / km)
Run with Mike, Rob, Al and Ant from the Fox hse along Froggatt and White edge. Beautiful day for it, although a bit too cold for shorts (I got a bit over-excited when I saw the sun shining).

Slow and tired morning run up Loxley valley with Jen. My legs felt dead.

Running 25:00 [5] 4.0 km (6:15 / km)
Hallamshire intervals at Trickets. 3xset of 4 hills. Tougher than usual session this time with the shortest hill taken out and an extra long one added. Worked out at about 35, 45, 50, 55 with jog back recovery. Mike and I killed each other on the penultimate run and the last rep was pure lactate hell.

To trickets and back via the clubhouse.

Orienteering 1:10:00 [3] 10.0 km (7:00 / km)
Oing on Burbage in warm sunshine. Ran with mike and rob doing some 3-way butterfly loops. Good to be out, but feeling pretty stuffed from track.
Running warm up/down 15:00 [2] 2.0 km (7:30 / km)
From the fox hse to the start and back.

Track session 35:00 [5] 8.0 km (4:23 / km)
Hallamshire track session. Strides and drills followed by 5x1500. I was worried I would be too tired for this extra-long session after last week, but I had an inexplicably good feeling for the whole session and ran easily my fastest times. The extra recovery helped a lot. running off 6 mins, 4.43, 4.45, 4.45, 4.45, 4.44.
Either Woodbourne Rd has shrunk in all the rain, I'm about to get ill, or the regular track sessions are starting to do some good...time will tell.
