Miscellaneous wu/wd before, between and after sprints.

Rushing too much and haven't looked carefully at the splits yet but know I lost a lot of time 2 through 5 in the wood including real bananas to 4 and 5. Caught AL at 12. 2nd but a long way down on GL.

Again well a truly cuffed by GL.
Reasonably clean on this once I'd worked out where the course went. 2nd again. You can only beat those who are fit and well who are there but I suspect Gary's times would have held up well against any Supervet anyway today.

Not particularly happy with the first race but the second was considerably better. Need to work on planning ahead much more if I'm to do more of these. Too manyhesitations and route choice errors.

It would be great if all urban events used white borders for the control numbers like they did at Perth. It makes the world of difference at least to those of us who are colour challenged. Took me an age to work out where the courses actually went, particularly to no 1 in Race 2 yesterday....although to be fair that number didn't actually need the border, I just didn't expect it to be where it was. The whole thing is not meant to be an exercise in seeing the course on the map.

Tipping it down. Dusk run through Captains Wood, Corsee Hill, Burnett Park and back through Glen O' Dee. Slow. Wet. Muddy. Good to get out though.

Usual mix:
Treadmill w/u - w/d
Weights
Stretches
Skate ski

Glen O'Dee steady in the fading light...before and after stride session. Needed the petzel for last 15 mins home.

12 x 1/1 at Burnett Park including the small hill. More strides rather than flat out. Somewhat wary of proper interval session. Don't want to pull anything in aged legs just now. Feeling pretty good.

Too much pain at work to get out.

Checking the last of the Cambus controls with a smattering of new snow on the ground.

Collecting controls from the west end..hoping DT had been through them first.
