Cycling 59:57 [3] 33.32 km (1:48 / km) +157m 1:45 / km

Lovely evening, only the 1 layer, warm out. Wind in my face heading to Beaufort but nice tailwind to take me home. Traffic had cleared up too on Port Road so clear run home.

Note
(rest day)
Up early to get to the event though. What a day, sun shone, and got to top up my tan. No complaints. Small bit concerned seeing 2 M12s DNF, one missed the 1st control but got the rest, and the other missed the 2nd only. So think it was them rather than me.
Suppose got some strength work helping to push Jens’ car out of a ditch!

ahr:124 max:179 55c shoes: VJ Falcons 2014
No idea how long it would take, and probably would have bet on it taking less time if I had to. Definitely tired by the end of it.
Hopefully people enjoy themselves tomorrow.

Day 1
Don't think it can be called The Crags anymore since most are no longer on the map!
Straightforward enough. Tried as much as I could but suffered physically towards the end.
Dropped to the right and low for 4. Then was careful back to 5. Knew where I was approaching the control so was ok.
Probably not the best route to 8.
Downhill to 13 things weren't going too badly, but between 13 and 14 I slipped on some bare rock, so shook me a bit. Also went a bit left of the line.
And then to 15 crossing the stream before the control the rock I stepped on moved and hurt my left big toe. Sore. But not broken. Will blame that for the 1 second loss to Magic.
Happy enough with my time all things considered.
Trails 10:18 [2] 1.17 km (8:47 / km)

Road warm up/down 4:33 [2] 0.83 km (5:29 / km) +1m 5:26 / km

Orienteering 10:30 [3] ** 2.2 km (4:46 / km) +2m 4:45 / km
ahr:161 max:177 shoes: Brooks Ghost 10
Not sure my head needed this type of event, definitely a challenge, and also reading the detail on the map was even more of a challenge.
Got the controls in the right order.
Not running too hard.
Orienteering race 11:45 [3] * 2.57 km (4:35 / km) +15m 4:27 / km
ahr:173 max:179 16c shoes: Brooks Ghost 10
Normal course this time. No real orienteering issues. Did go around the bridge to 5 rather than go straight across the river. Also had trouble finding the one back in the trees after the loop of Deenagh Lodge. Other than that a few seconds lost to 12 telling some people what time the event was over at.
Nice to be running.
Road warm up/down 4:58 [2] 0.84 km (5:54 / km) +12m 5:30 / km

Control descriptions printed and cut up for Monday.
Left achilles sore walking around today, thinking the shoes i'm wearing may not be helping, time for a new pair.

Tough day walking around villages in South Kerry in the sun!
Had planned on cutting the grass but it rained when I got home.
Erik started Baby Pilates today with his mother, he was good at engaging his core.
