Run 1:15:20 [3] 11.5 km (6:33 / km) +395m 5:35 / km
ahr:129 max:156

Working in Inverness. Sunny evening so a pleasant run from Woodpark round the town (in the woods) into Beachen Woods and up the valley north. A track took me to a trod that took me to the top of Gorton Hill. Great views of the hills. From there it was cross country back down the hill and through scrub till I picked up the path to rejoin the route back. Pleasant.

Note
(rest day)

Pleased to have put in two reasonable weeks of running. The injury in the ankle is almost settled, just lots of other sore bits now!
Wiped out today (probably to do with sharing a bed with Matthew all weekend).

Orienteering race 1:31:03 [4] 12.35 km (7:22 / km) +646m 5:51 / km
ahr:153 max:166

SOL at Lossie.
Started with the wrong attitude and balls'd no 3 big time (7.5 mins?). Didn't care thereafter so turned into a training session. Nice terrain, worked OK through it but me and the map will never see eye to eye.
Glad to have just held off Janine! ;-)

Collecting SEDS controls on Beachen Wood.
Run from Woodpark and back. Had hoped to do some shadowing but I was more tired than I should be from yesterday's training.
Climb figure - dubious.

ahr:162 max:173

Revack event - Green.
Tried to work hard on this - helped by knowing where the map was unreliable. Caught Fanni up half way round and had a good ding-dong till I dropped her off the hill. Enjoyed this.

Run 39:09 [3]
ahr:128

Working in Inverness (went up last night) returning down A9 after work - caught in roadworks after roadworks. Took advantage of the detour at Killiecrankie to park at the VC and run down to Soldier's Leap and on to Killiecrankie pass and River Gary bunjee jump and found a wee route to circle round and back. Nice and cool in the shade of the trees.

Road Bike 58:52 [2] 24.1 km (2:27 / km)

Easy ride out to Braco and back. Thought this would do me good but ended up a crawl so I'm obviously knackered from the weekend's efforts!

Run 59:34 [3] 9.09 km (6:33 / km) +430m 5:18 / km
ahr:123 max:153

A run in Mabie before Janine's second race. Legs knackered after yesterday so this was very steady. Enjoyed the single track red route running and found a lovely walker's path hill climb.
Afternoon spent with kids at Mabie Park Farm - great fun!

British Mountain Bike Orienteering Championships - Dalbeattie.
Family weekend in Galloway & Dumfries - pursuaded Janine to come away and do this (to get her to take part). Enjoyed the ride but had a very heavy £200 bike and really struggled on the climbs. Good training. 7th out of 8 folk on the Mens Open. Way down on leaders.

FVO WEE - new map of Braco & Roman Fort by GG.

ahr:139 max:146 weight:68kg

A run in the back woods. Was planning to run up Dumyat but saw sense - I should be grateful that I can run pain free - I now need to steadily build up to something decent.

Heading home via a fabby beach 2 miles south of Berwick. Rock pools, waterfalls and great sand - and very sunny :-)

Morning Gymnastics 1:23:14 [3] 12.6 km (6:36 / km) +250m 6:01 / km
ahr:140 max:160

Run from by the river at Angram over the hills to the holiday house. Not too many useful tracks on the hills so in terrain for a lot of it. Got quite nettled trying to take an unused path through a forest. Great to be out and for the body not to be complaining (too much).

Orienteering race 45:00 [4] 7.4 km (6:05 / km) +150m 5:31 / km
ahr:160 max:174

BOC Relays.
Talked myself out of the M40 team (right choice) but thus placed in the 2nd men's open team - sorry guys! Empty from yesterday so this run went from bad to worse, especially as I had brain fuzz at the far end. Not a pretty sight, sorry to have let the two others (Will and Steve F) down.
Knackered.
