Orienteering race 1:19:33 [4] 10.46 km (7:36 / km)
Northern Champs on Bigland.
Nervous about this -would my body hold out, would I have the fitness to survive. Took a Pro Plus and manned up. Promptly blew 2 minutes at no 1 but now I was in the terrain and loving it. Worked well all the way and chuffed with another solid result - 2nd behind Stevey B.
Still in one piece! :-)

Fab tough course planned by Derek. I managed to survive it with my old Silva Headlamp (need to get something better as I really could not see at all!!). Survived with few major hiccups but still surprised to squeeze a third behind James and Stevey B. Chuffed!

A snowy run with Brad from home. Too much snow to do anything but work from home but not willing to miss a run in the snow. Willing partner a few doors down :-)
Up through the terrain and then footpaths to the Gathering Stone where I was wilting so took a direct route back. Fun!

Empty of energy from the start (diets don't work!). So took it steady and aimed to finish. I was pretty pathetic from start to finish.
Devoured the pie at the Torbrex!

Mountain Bike 50:00 [3]
From Garage to work. Passat in again because of garage incompetence in balancing tyres. At least I get some non-running training out of it. Sleeting snow and lying on the ground. Zero degrees. Cold and wet, glad I took my overshoes.

Took care of calf and worked harder than normal (not very) on the rest of the body. I'm always exceptionally tired at this session....

Race race 45:06 [4] 9.3 km (4:51 / km)
Angela's Aberfoyle Trail Race.
Warmed up OK with Sarah and Fanni and started fairly hard. Sadly the calf tightened after 4k so I eased up big time and cruised the rest -letting lost of people past. (Should have been sub 42).
I only enjoyed the muddy bits - hater the tarmac(!) and firm tracks - so did the calf. No hills tomorrow :-(
