Running 1:05:00 [4] 10.5 km (6:11 / km)
shoes: New Balance X Terrain

First loop over pen-y-cloddiau, about 7.25 k with dad and took about 45mins
Second loop over Moel Arthur, not to the summit tho, 3.25k about 20mins

Some good hills, calf was a bit sore down hill, stretching it eased it on first loop.

Strength and Stretching 40:00 [3]

On the ball again. Level 3.

Running 40:00 [3] 9.5 km (4:13 / km)
shoes: New Balance X Terrain

Run with dad. Pretty wet. Straight out after s+s.

Went out along fields then canal, which they were dredging. Then came back through the zoo. Building a new bridge over the public footpath, only saw two animals which were braving the weather and they were camels.

Don't think I'll do this run again in a hurry. Too many hard surfaces to run on. Could feel my shin complaining. Felt calf once I got back, and it wasn't just the posture one.

Strength and Stretching 40:00 [2]

On the gym ball. Followed instructions from the dvd on level 3. Included quite a bit of core.

Massage 20:00 [1]

On calf

Physio 20:00 [0]

Physio had a look at my calf. Thought it was maybe the nerves but in the end decided it was the muscle responsible for posture, which is why it hurts more going down hill and doesn't really affect running much of the time.

Anyway have to massage it and do stride exercises. Plan to have 2 days rest from running anyway.

Orienteering race 29:36 [4] *** 4.2 mi (7:03 / mi)
shoes: New Balance X Terrain

JK Day 4 Erridge Old Park Relays - 12th

Mistake on 2, due to misreading the map (2.5mins). Cruised the rest. Was with bedders for last half but managed to get away before run in, as I didn't expect I would be able to beat him on a sprint finish.

Area wasn't very technical, and would have been much easier if the mapping had been good. Semi-open was just like a normal wood, trees were just a bit further spaced. And as for a distinct veg boundary... Reminds me a bit of Slovakia but to give credit to the JK, Slovakian semi-open was even less obvious.

Calf was hurting a bit in the morning, wasn't sure whether to run but decided to and I didn't feel it at all out.
