Training Log Archive: Brooner

Cruise round the beach, Fishertown, links to check the arena and then high street before home.

Trying to warm up post sprint watching.

"I finished first at the world championships in my home town" < a factually correct statement, nobody need know that I was first for maybe ten minutes, and the race was for spectators...

Nairn open sprint - red, 5th place, 1 min down.

Since WOC was announced with Nairn as a potential venue, I had obviously been looking forward to the opportunity to run round my local hood for a long time. On the whole I made the most of it, a pretty clean run bar a couple of silly errors, speed was the main sticking point but could have knocked 25s off through mistakes.

Course was pretty straightforward (as I also thought the relay was, bar a couple of legs) and the time loss came from concentration rather than much else - I certainly benefited from home advantage, knew what things in the streets & park would look like and could keep a decent pace up, then in the dunes just had to be sensible - although the barriers kept you on your toes to avoid traps, as did a number of gaps which were open for WOC but not us.

Event: WOC 2015 & Scottish 6 days
 

Event: London Park Race Series 2015, #9: Barnes Common
 

Putney bridge to Barnes with heavy bag, then a bit more of a warm up.

Barnes common park race, too fast for me, but good to try and get processes in place, a few seconds lost around the circles, particularly towards the end when tired, a few less than optional route choices too.

Long - Splits

Event: Sydney MetrO League 5 - Manly Dam
 

~6 hours crap sleep to Dubai, ~4 hours better sleep to London.

Easy cruise around Grassie's local murder scenes.
