Training Log Archive: SarahD

Had been looking forward to Anagach so disappointed to have to stand at the sidelines and watch. Going to need to be patient. Hopefully will be able to cycle - maybe give it a try tomorrow.
Otherwise a great w/e with an inspiring MTS bunch.

Running around watching athletes in the forest during TS training - Uath Lochans. Went over foot near the end - crunched badly but seemed to ease off after.

Walked around taking photos in the afternoon and foot seemed ok, but then stood too long making tea etc. and could feel it start to pound. Got quite excruciating for a while after that. Bummer.

Long run starting from Pannanich, through the forest to Glen Muick house, then on to the big diagonal track up to Craig Vallich. On to Pannanich hill, down the ridge to Inchmarnoch and back along the new track below the road. Really nice run, but a vicious bitter wind on the tops - hard to stand at times. Had forgotten how lovely the lower part of the ridge is with quite a lot of tree cover now and some great views over Deeside.
Not feeling very bouncy and got quite stiff around the lower back / core. Last 20' back along the bottom into the wind was v tough.

Up Meikle Tap to the mast from the E end on the way HFW. Sluggish.

In Brum - last day of travelling for a while hopefully

Lunchtime on the railway. 5 x 4'+2'. Distances were 898, 880,790 (rough stuff), 889, 877. Solid.

To start and back again.
Grey wagtail in the ditch alongside the DW.

Checking a couple of control sites at Redburn

Warm-up drills and a rather brisk lap of the woods at the end of athletics club - trying to push the lads to run a bit quicker.
