Jogged to keep warm && did a control pick course with Bex that was such a fail cos we got completely lost & almost missed my start cos of it!

spiked:11/12c shoes: Yellow Inov8

Loch vaa middle distance course -

Well pleased with this, yeah i wasn't the fastest or anything but i naviagted really well for me. made sure to use my compass & simplify the contours. Only drifted off slightly on the long leg but i worked out where i was straight away with no need to relocate.
Was snowing & really cold too!! fun :)

Orienteering warm up/down 15:00 [2]

Orienteering 18:30 [4] 2.6 km (7:07 / km) +40m 6:36 / km
shoes: Yellow Inov8

Did a relay where there is 4 people in a team & 3 courses, each of which has to be done twice. So you have to decide who to send out on which ones to be the fastest - i did the long course in the mass start.
Ran the whole way with Hazel & Bex, was really fast out there & it was pretty exhausting. Quite pleased that I kept up & naviagted & didn't just follow or get distracted too much.

Did this 2 person thing with bex where you set off opposite ways on a 1km loop. One person runs fast the other jogs, when you reach each other you turn around & swop over running speeds. Did this so we both did 7 fast & 7 slow laps.
Had quite a bad stitch but was good.

Craigmillar Castle Event - Long Blue

Really enjoyed this course, was proper good. Liked the contrast between the park, the urban area & the technical quarry bit at the start & end. Had to think about changing speed a lot. Tried to plan ahead as much as possible but still not too great at this.

Mistakes were on entering the technical bits & also got stuck behind a hedge.
Gooood fun though :)

S&C 1:00:00 [2]

Well determind to improve though!

Tuesday Dec 1, 2009 #

Running 27:00 [4] 5.35 km (5:03 / km) +100m 4:37 / km
shoes: Trainers

Was freezing cold && not that enjoyable, but decided to just try some faster(ish) running than normal to improve my endurance for this kind of middle distancy length.
Hmm...pleased I didn't stop but it really shouldn't have been so much effort, although i do feel quite tired so maybe that is it??
