Note
(injured)

Ankle ligament damage to the inside - not a nice one this.

Event: SOL 3
 

Orienteering race 1:08:00 [5]

Damn!
SOL at Dumyat.
Ran well and pretty strongly- didn't like some of the grot they put us through but in the main the course was pretty good (a great forest to practise for JWOC in!). But we had a bing pit right at the end and needless to say I couldn't find it. Lost about the time I am between winning and coming third so pretty miffed.
Ankle is wrecked after the race - I think I've damaged a ligament.

Run 45:00 [3]

A late-in-the-day run with the wife out the back. On some very nice paths and through some lovely woods. Great to be back.

Dodgy tummy and sore from yesterday's wretching.
Day off work (yippeee! even if I am ill!)

Note
(sick) (rest day)

My legs belong to a granny this morning!
Then this afternoon I threw up my lunch and breakfast. Stomach cramps and feeling terrible. Food poisoning I reckon.

Fell Race race 55:43 [5]

Cort Ma Law - Bog and Burn Race
A proper fell race! Felt more like Ilkley Moor. A long climb up the first steep ascent - I didn't want to burn out here and found myself behind Jon and Brad but within sight. Once over the first top the view panned out and I could see it was going to be a long slow climb for the next 20 minutes - but all runnable (apart from the Lard-eating bog!) so I pushed on. I was not surprised to pass Jon after his early wary comments (and he's off to Jukkola today so was probably mentally saving himself too) but to pass Brad! ? I almost blew a gasket to try and get some distance on everyone and was very nervous on the first steep descent thinking that Brad would catch me back but was not to be. A very nice long descent that was almost full-on down to the finish and whoop whoop, 3-3 in the running races between me and Jon X than you very much.

Run warm up/down 20:00 [3]

Painfull warm down!

Run 1:05:00 [4]

Soup and Run chez Hensmans in Tullibody.
Very pleasant run, despite a strong breeze, and a great selection of soup and breads - thanks Susan.
Not feeling to good on the run but still hoping to challenge Jon at Cort Ma Law tonight - looks like we'll both not be on form so we should both be worrying about Junior beating us!
