Running race (x-country) 22:16 [5]
Knockburn loch x-c - 3 mile race.
Almost bottled this after another rubbish nights sleep and feeling lousy first thing. After jogging round E's course with him decided there wasn't too much wrong with me. Took the race steady and it went ok. Stomach knotted up by end of first lap, but gained a few places on the second lap, and picked off an FV near the finish. 20s or so behind JK. Happy.

Running warm up/down 20:00 [2]
Warm-up. Forgot about the warm down bit.
Note
Have been very abstemious the last couple of nights and slept rubbish - so bugger that for a plan...

Running 1:50:00 [2]
Long run with J. Parked in Strathdon at the end of the Edinglassie road. Ran out by the track along Glen Ernan, up ontp Geal Charn, along to Carn Mor and back down the spur to Lonach Hill.
Have logged this as level 2 as legs were shagged from the word go and struggled the whole way - walking all of the hills. Despite this, enjoyed the route- all new ground to me and some surprisingly interesting bits by Strathdon standards. Will do it again sometime when I feel a bit brighter.
Going to have to review my training plan, as these long runs aren't working out well on Fridays at the mo. Maybe need to push them back to Sat or Sun, especially with night O starting up.

Orienteering 50:00 [3]
Night O training at Dess. Had a false start when my head torch died on the way to no 1. So came back, Peter leant me his spare battery and set off again. This one lasted to no 6 or so before it too turned into a candle and I completed the course on 2 candle power with my back-up torch on too. So was really a bit of a plod round the forest. Faffed a lot on no 3 and wobbled on 8, but otherwise just moving slowly. Hopefully I'll have got my equipment problems out of the way for the season if I get a new battery ordered.

With J from Ripon centre followed the Skell upstream and did a tracky loop which sort of worked except for a wee bit in the middle. Not feeling very bright though.
