Roundhay Park with Gracie. She got away from me when she was doing reps, but I got my own back by catching her up again when she was on her recoveries.

Shadwell and Roundhay Park with Gracie at a decent pace. Will be glad when exams are over.

On the plus side, I saw Jimmy Saville in co-op.

Dragged myself out late evening. The world and his dog were out enjoying the sun in Roundhay Park today. I had fun going past the myriad joggers as fast as I could without looking like I was putting any effort in.

JK - 3 good races, 1 crap race in the one I could've done best in, and 4 ok but not great results. Still, had some promising signs out there and very pleased with how far I've come since the Autumn, especially considering having to juggle the old work/life balance now (as opposed to the training/tv balance I had before). Not gonna be able to do much training in the next 2 weeks cos of exams.

Orienteering race (JK relay) 22:15 [5]
shoes: jalas o-shoes

Ran as hard as I could, felt strong and didn't make any mistakes, so personally I was really happy. Plus it was fun trying to drop Nixy. Ultimately I failed, but with an ungaffled 22minute easy course and Nixy running as well as he was, it was never really gonna happen.

I'm not against it going down to 3 legs next year, but someone needs to make sure that all 3 legs are important - i.e. difficult, gaffled, and longer than 22minutes.

Running warm up/down 20:00 [2]

Before with Sprotty and after with Sprotty and Nixy.

Orienteering race (JK Classic) 1:30:40 [5]
shoes: jalas o-shoes

4th place in a long/hilly/tough/rough race - not bad for me. Only one small technical blip at 16, but looking at the splits, I dropped a lot of time on routes through the crap towards the end (was in 2nd and only 1min down on Oli at 25). Some good splits on the running legs (13 and 17) and a good start to the race. All my strength training has been paying off.

Running warm up/down 20:00 [2]
shoes: jalas o-shoes

15 up and 5 down.

Orienteering race (JK Middle) 38:20 [5]
shoes: jalas o-shoes

Poo. Good course, good terrain, iffy map. Started well and got into the lead at 6 and 7. Then screwed up 9 (went through a weird brain/forest/map warp) and Oli caught me. Ran with him for a bit, we ballsed up, then I didn't even bother to follow him to the finish so lost another couple of mins. Schoolboy stuff. Not a happy bunny - should've done well today.

Running warm up/down 15:00 [2]
shoes: jalas o-shoes

15 up, 0 down (in a boo).

Orienteering race (JK Sprint) 17:08 [5]
shoes: New Balance 1024 - 2nd pair

5th place. Easy sprint course and beaten by 4 boys who would have beaten me in a 5km road race, so pretty happy to be as close to them as I was really. It was pleasing that despite feeling heavy and slow, I was actually running quite well.

Running warm up/down 30:00 [2]
shoes: New Balance 1024 - 2nd pair

Running intervals 20:00 [5]
shoes: Asics Trabuco

10x 90secs (30secs rec) in the park. Pushed very hard. Had to lean on a wall for a while after to recover. If I'd had a personal trainer with me we'd have probably high-fived at that point. Good sesh.

In the park before and after reps.

Running 57:00 [3]
shoes: Asics Trabuco

IW - the long version again. Nice route this one and means I can just get the bus home. Bag was a bit heavier though which took it's toll towards the end.

Sunday Apr 5, 2009 #

Running 1:26:00 [3]
shoes: Asics Trabuco

Longish run on Ilkley Moor. Parked at Cow and Calf, Badger Stone, Swastika Stone, trig point, trig point on Rivock Edge, trig point at top of Ilkley, Twelve Apostles, back. Not the most exciting moorland run but nice to be in the countryside.

Running 1:09:00 [3]
shoes: Asics Trabuco

Late evening run, starting off in the dusk and finishing in the dark. Didn't go very hard but enjoyed the run. Shadwell, Harewood Estate, Wigton Moor.

Running 57:00 [3]
shoes: New Balance 1024 - 2nd pair

IW. Got up early so I could do a longer run in. Out to Adel Woods and then right down Meanwood Valley into town. Nice to be on little paths through forest most of the way. Felt quite good, but hungry and cold by the time I got in.

Running intervals 40:00 [4]
shoes: Asics Trabuco

20x 90secs (30secs jogging). Tunnel How Hill, Adel Woods, Eccup Resevoir... Felt alright.
