Finally managed to get out for a run late afternoon; inspired by all of this road running that people are logging, I thought I'd chuck on the Newtons and pound some tarmac. Did the Kinbuck/Auchinlay loop, with a wee diversion to Cromlix House to add a bit. Took it steady out to Kinbuck then gradually wound it up. Reasonably happy with my pace later on. Don't think I could keep that up for a half marathon though, never mind a full one!

Jogged slowly back up from the town centre, in the vain hope of avoiding calf seizure. Tired.

Lunchtime in Livingston. Very pressed for time, only had 45 minutes between meetings, so blatted around pretty quickly. Hot in the sun, quite a contrast from the chilly morning - autumn is most certainly just around the corner!

WEE at QVS. Fun wee 2.6km sprint course planned by Ben. Minimal 5 minute warm up (not logged) then straight into running pretty hard. I like sprint O. I just wish I was a bit fitter. Made no mistakes - I could maybe have found another 10s or so, but this is about as fast as I can orienteer. Any further improvement will require some actual training (whatever that is!). A nice break from the humdrum, thanks, Ben.
