 | Orienteering 17:00 [4] **** 3 km (5:40 / km) | |
| |
| 1 man relay planned by Tania against Egor and Gleb near Friazino on the outskirts of Moscow. Really tricky bit of green forest blown up to 1:2500 so very hard to stay in control. Made one big mistake and finished 2nd behind Egor. Nice training! |
| Running 40:00 [2] 7 km (5:43 / km) | |
| |
| Warm up and then a run back to Friazino afterwards. |
Friday Sep 26 |
| Running 30:00 [3] 7 km (4:17 / km) | |
| |
| Evening run along a smaller river through some industrial bits to some strange new skyscrapers, but didn't quite make it because it was getting a bit too dark. Need to go back to explore more another day. |
Thursday Sep 25 |
| Running 38:00  8 km (4:45 / km) | |

| Finally arrived in Moscow at 1am after some delays. Spent the day buried in books but made it out for an evening run along the River. Did one of Ian's fartlek sessions: 25 paces hard/25 paces moderate, 30 paces hard/30 paces moderate...etc etc as a pyramid of 5 pace increments going up to 70 paces. Felt better for it. |

Monday Sep 22 |
| Running 49:30  12 km (4:08 / km) | |
| |
| Another speed session, this time ran quite hard on trails up to Rivelin Post Office, then hammered it back down to the fire station on the road (~4.5km), the idea being to get the legs moving faster than normal on a gradual downhill gradient. Good session but hard on the legs. |
