Trail / Terrain Run 1:00:00 [3]
shoes: VJ Twister

Hanging controls in Bogendreip for the great DNC. Started off overcast but turned into a lovely Deeside day.

All went well until I came to hang the last one only to find that they'd already commenced building the big fence round the open area in the middle. Not helpful and some quick improvisation on the spot called for.

Out for 2.5 hours in total....met up with T&K who were hanging a few.

Running 30:00 [3]
shoes: Asics Gel Trail Sensor

Tillybrake, Platties, woodyard and back round Hill of Banchory with K. Her first outside run since doing her ankle. She did well.

Note

Glad to get the coughing over and feel to be running pretty well.

shoes: Reebok Premier RoadPlus

Mixture of weights and cross-trainer stuff. Felt I needed a fairly restful day.

Trail / Road Run 45:00 [3]
shoes: Asics Gel Trail Sensor

Tempo run round Hazlhead with Rob at lunchtime in all the rain and wind Aberdeen could throw at us. Felt pretty good. Got Glen Dye out of my legs.

Note

Result. Postscript to the DNC at Glen Dye. Did for them all (Big Jon, Oleg, Bruce D, Sarah, Eddie et al) on the bonus point first leg....thats all that matters.

Orienteering race (DNC5-Glen Dye) 1:13:00 [4]
shoes: VJ Twister

Nice night, nice place, nice course.

Clean through 1-8, although lost a good minute+ when my headtorch disconnected and a kindly lady happened to be passing and helped me sort it - thanks Clare M!

Unfortunately got confused by the hills 8-9 and promptly undid a lot of the good work. Then fell apart even more on the uphill leg to 11 and really was pretty dire from then on in. Enjoyed it but would have been happy with 20mins less.

Note: Having to noticeably stop more to read the map, especially at night.
This ageing thing is no fun.

Gym 30:00 [3]

Not much time today so sneaked a quick half-hour when things were a mite quiet at work.

Running 10:00 [3]

Doesn't really count I suppose but ran to and from Steve's house where MAROC committee meeting was!

Trail / Terrain Run 1:30:00 [3]

Easy running through Bogendreip looking at control sites for DNC race. Pretty sodden in some places, and more wind blow than I remember but still some cracking bits of wood. Feeling pretty tired.
