Run race 24:24 [4] 5.97 km (4:05 / km) +40m 3:57 / km

Harvey Fun Run, Doune
6k course from the playpark down the railway track, across the trials bike area, back road to Argaty, up into the woods and into new housing estate then a lap of Doune Ponds before finishing.
Not a very well attended race. But I'm no road runner. The pace out along the tarmac was too fast for me and I settled into 4th with a Dunblane Runners guy on my shoulder. He had a really small and slappy stride which annoyed the hell out of me. Even worse was that I couldn't get away from hime when it turned up hill and off-road! Coming into the new housing estate I went where the map showed and so went the wrong way - took me 5 meters and a U turn to sort it so the guy got in front. Got back to him round the ponds and I had fire in my belly for a sprint finish to get my hard-earned 4th spot back.

A fun little race with a very local atmosphere. Sue Harvey ran.. It was won in 23. Hannah ran the 2.5k race and got 4th placed female and won a special prize for first U6 and smiliest person at the event! Love it.

Run 30:00 [3]

Newton Primary Running Club.
Agility & speed session run by Hazel. So good I had to join in. But after the tight cornered sprints I am beginning to regret my bravadoism!
DOMS in quads almost instantaneous!

All those kids would escape the groundsman if spotted scrumping. But I doubt they'd know what I was talking about.

Out with Brad and Bertha to Braco. Hoping to go over the Muir but Brad broke Bertha and so we turned tails and he rode standing up for most of the way home :-) A good workout.

Orienteering 29:34 [3] 3.7 km (7:59 / km)

FVO WEE at Plean planned by Jamie. A great short wee course making the most of the paths and nipping into the undergrowth where it wasn't too nettley. Some raid to add to the moisture. I really ejoyed this quick punt round. Then straight on to Bridge of Allan to join in with the Cub Chip Hike. Well, the chip bit ;-)

Orienteering 1:02:19 [3] 8.14 km (7:39 / km)

Checking out the new map of Birnam and Ladywell Plantation. Forest roads looking good for parking, jogged the route up to the planned start and then on to the top and through the white wood down towards the valley and back. Some really tough bits, some really beautiful bits. A great area to get re-mapped. Here's hoping we can get permissions now!
