Orienteering 1:08:30 *** 9.34 km (7:20 / km) +364m 6:08 / km

SOL at Teviothead - Short Brown (8km). Pretty dire effort - still totally wiped, I could barely muster an animated jog, certainly not a run. I had also managed to pull my back yesterday evening, sigh, so when the pills started to wear off towards the latter part of the course and the sciatica started to distract me, I made a few silly mistakes. Maybe 5 minutes lost in mistakes and easily 1 min/km in running speed. Thankfully the low cloud in the higher parts of the course helped some others make mistakes, so I wasn't laughably far behind.
I love going down to the Borders. It's gorgeous. Must start Donald-bagging again.

Zwift - Watopia. Very compressed Saturday morning slot due to birthday shenanigans (Jamie) and dance duties (Eilidh). Just as I was about to jump on the bike, I got a phone call - another 15 minutes gone, argh!
As it turned out, I felt pretty dreadful anyway, no energy, and was toiling heavily on the climbs; so, I wasn't too disappointed about the shortened session, after all.

Zwift - London (easy). Back on the bike for an easy/steady couple of laps of the Greater London Flat route to warm down and make up the 90 minutes.

ahr:148 max:167 shoes: Genesis Croix de Fer 30 2016
Spin spin spin. Lunchtime downpour avoidance, again. 2 laps of the Watopia Hilly Route for old times' sake. One hard lap off no warm up (oops), one steady - rewarded with PBs on the KOM (2:37 vs 2:40) and full loop (14:30 vs 14:40), so, can't have been that bad. Decent short workout. Knee strapped and no further swelling afterwards.

Had half an hour before minion collection duty. Just enough time for a wee spin. Still covering the duff knee, so, easy on the hills

Running 34:01 6.02 km (5:39 / km) +58m 5:23 / km
ahr:137 max:147 shoes: Hoka Speedgoat 2
An ultra-easy jog just to get some fresh air. Very much in a deep blue funk with running at the moment - bad knees, no targets, no mojo.
