SOL1 Dalrulzion. M40 7.6km +290m. This was never going to be my day, as it's far too rough an area for me and my dodgy back, but I threw it all away anyway. Blew 2 mins at #2 by being careless, then had a complete brain failure at #8 and trashed 8 minutes by running an embarrassing 900m more than I needed to. Pretty much just pootled home dispiritedly after that. Got completely caught in windblow en route to #17.
New shoes fab though.

Event: Scottish Sprint Champs
11 AM
Orienteering race 19:05 **** 3.8 km (5:01 / km)
ahr:155 max:168 23c shoes: Inov-8 F-Lite 230
Scottish Sprints cse 2, 2.6km. Very early start. No control #3. Confidence blown, along with over a minute. Took a while to get going again properly after that. Then thrown in the school when I saw everyone around me punching numbers 7 and 10 through the fence, lost ca 90s, momentum and concentration by getting annoyed at the poor planning/controlling about that. Never really threw my heart into it thereafter.
So, a very poor show, and to add insult to injury, he organisers decided that not enough people had been affected by #3 being missing before they'd replaced it to bother voiding the legs before and after. Unchuffed.

Running (Path run) 39:52 9.22 km (4:19 / km) +74m 4:09 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Cumulus 11
Lunchtime run in Livingston. Felt pretty good - the back stretching and massage over the last few days have done the job. Nice, steady pace.
Forgot HRM strap so no HR data.

Cycling (Road) 1:04:33 26.59 km (24.7 kph) +312m
ahr:134 max:157 slept:8.0 (injured)
Late afternoon jaunt under a blossoming red and pink sky, too beautiful to resist. Leg & back not up to a run, so I dug out Bertha II for her first outing of 2011. She may not be rusty, but I most certainly am. Ground my way torturously slowly to Braco, then decided to spurn the full route out to Blackford due to the late hour (and tired legs) and headed to Greenloaning, where I crossed the A9 and hiked up onto Sherrifmuir. Lovely views up top and a whizzo descent. Grand to be out.

6 PM
Strength training (Pilates) 35:00 [2]
(injured)
FVO session. After five sets of back exercises during the day I thought that I could risk this. Took it very carefully. R leg still sore.
7 PM
Strength training (Circuits) 20:00 [2]
(injured)
My R leg wasn't up to any running or hopping exercises, but I did the rest of the exercises in the 2 sets (40/5 and 30/5). Didn't really break much of a sweat, as a result! Lower back pretty creaky.
