Survived the first week of teaching well enough.
And someone apparently wants to buy my car.

150 arts and cs students learnt that they didn't know what addition is yesterday. That was fun. Strangely the fourth year maths class today was less so. Talking into a vacuum.

Sort of local hill run. Ended up driving around the back of 2rock before I found a place to park.
Up 2rock, down to 3rock and back. No sheep, two deer.
Ambit3.

Slept *even* worse last night, despite being in Waterford. Feeling somewhat human again after a couple of hours dozing on the couch back in Dublin.

Sometimes I forget I'm allergic to training. Maybe I shouldn't run in the evenings.

Phoenix Park.
Two big mistakes by time, one I went past the tree trunk without seeing the control, the other I was off by miles.
Headlamp went into emergency mode halfway around. Need to replace the batteries.
Good to get out for a run.

running 45:00 [3]
No idea how long I was out fartlekking with room22.
A bit too smooth to classify as trail running, but a fair bit was on the perimeter trail or grass, some on road.

Along the Dodder to Rathfarnham Rd. It's not the Rhône.
The worst place I've lived for running since Warsaw (though Warsaw is now fabulous mapped sprint terrain).

Loop around UCD, in Foster's Ave entrance, out Clonskeagh Rd. Grim, but less so than it could be.

Carlingford II
Foxes' Rock
Another great day on the mountain. My orienteering wasn't outstanding. Tired from the day before and a bit out of practice. Stopped with Eoin to do a couple of controls map memory to try to get some focus back... messed up the first one in a typical way : self-instructions ended with around the hill and drop a little to the boulder... whereas in reality it was drop 2.5 contours, which ain't a 'little'. Nice cave just before the end. I associated it with the long woman's grave.
After a bite of fruitcake I managed a little trot with Shane to collect Clíodhna.

Carllingford Training Weekend Day I
Slieve Foye
Jog to reg, Walk to start. Head-to-head gaffles with Dooby, then line-o and three pair loops with same, then I got lazy. Only half a control pick, again hitting the trig point. Then the long (5km) course and back to the car.
I was almost clean on everything up until the long, where I made a bunch of mistakes. Couple of tricky legs.
Great training, fantastic way to start the year.

Carlingford. Walk jog with Shane and some kites, then jog back down. Beautifully sunny, bit windy, not too bitter.
