Orienteering race 54:07 [4] 6.95 km (7:47 / km) +264m 6:33 / km
ahr:159 max:172 shoes: Inov8 O-Roc 350
SOL7, Dreva and Muckle Muir. Blue - 6.3km +300m.
My back's been bad all week (after last Sunday's O!) but I knew that this area is mostly easy underfoot and I needed to get out, so off I toddled. The forecast was gloomier than reality - it was a bit damp but not really raining at 10:30. I was moving slowly and heavily through the mushy woods, and had no go on the hills; after making two silly mistakes on 8&9, accounting for 3 minutes, Ben H - who'd started 6 minutes behind me - had me in his sights. I got a very small bit of wind in my sails from that, and it took him until 18 to get past. Too many bananas on a simple area, and sloppy mistakes on 8&9, but otherwise this was respectable enough. Better, my back was fine.
It was worth going just for the chance to blast up and down my favourite road, the A701. Oh to still have a fast car...
TRIMP 195.

E-cycling (Road) 1:08:10 [2] 37.48 km (33.0 kph) +354m
ahr:122 max:147 shoes: Kalkhoff Pro Connect S10
Quick loop around Braco, Blackford and Sherrifmuir, having finally got the electric bike's creaking cranks and grinding gears sorted. Nice and easy; back still a bit sore after Sunday, although yesterday's numb left foot is now only a little tingly.
