Running warm up/down 10:00 [2] 1.0 km (10:00 / km)
shoes: VJ Falcon Aug 2015
Orienteering race 14:58 [5] 2.72 km (5:30 / km) +50m 5:02 / km
shoes: VJ Falcon Aug 2015
Men Vets, 3rd place. Winner Patrick W 13:05, 2nd Dave R 13:27.
A bit more like proper orienteering than a usual prologue for Glasgow Parks, had dropped nearly a minute at #2 before got my brain tuned in to that. The rest of the time down was just running speed.
Running warm up/down 2:00 [2] 0.2 km (10:00 / km) +10m 8:00 / km
shoes: VJ Falcon Aug 2015

Orienteering race 12:58 [5] 2.3 km (5:38 / km) +50m 5:05 / km
shoes: Inov8 Xtalon 2015
Men Vets, 3rd place. Winner Dave R 11:28, 2nd Patrick 12:10.
Some excellent concealing of mini-kites even by Terry standards! Managed to exit at least two of the “bush, centre” controls in the wrong direction. Couldn’t find the flag at #8 and also maybe not the best route, went to the wrong thicket at #9.
Not more than a minute lost all told though, Dave and Patrick just running that bit quicker. Felt much more heavy-legged in this race too.
No warmdown…
Running warm up/down 5:00 [2] 0.5 km (10:00 / km)
shoes: VJ Falcon Aug 2015
Orienteering race 19:46 [5] 3.53 km (5:36 / km) +50m 5:14 / km
shoes: VJ Falcon Aug 2015
Men Vets, starting 3rd in chase start, 3:10 behind Dave and 2:41 behind Patrick, with nearly 2 mins lead on 4th.
Finished 3rd overall and 2nd in this race after Dave went for a wander. Patrick won with 17:51.
More proper orienteering with some easy/dead running at the beginning and end. Didn’t take great routes to #3 or #9, fine apart from that.

Road biking 2:11:00 [3] 56.0 km (2:20 / km) +550m 2:14 / km
Struggling a bit to start with, hopefully explained by not eating properly last night. Ate some food on the ride and better later on.
Broke a spoke in the Carron Valley, need to get it sorted for the weekend.
A bit of drizzle but much better than last night, nice bright moon to light the way home too...

Road biking 2:14:00 [3] 56.2 km (2:23 / km) +363m 2:19 / km
Summer kit. No gloves. Freezing cold rain. Couldn't feel to change gear by the end. Needed 30mins in car with heater on full before thawed enough even to drive home. August ffs.

Glasgow Parks races on Sunday after a longish ride on Saturday will be a struggle I think!
