2~went straight and didn't veer to the right enough so wasn't sure of where i was. but spiked it afterwards
3-7~spiked
8~completely messed it up and it was so straight forward. Just followed someone and culdn't re-locate for ages as displaye on o.ie
9-14~spiked
15~just a small bit off pretty much ran passed it.
16~spiked but it wouldn't beep until 3rd time lucky.
17~tried to run to fast and took wrong path realised quickly. then spiked

Note
rhr:65 (sick)

I was a bit sick today. Got sick this morning just a bug i guess.
i've been ok since then but i wasnt in school.
i've been ok since about 11 but obviously there is no point in doing the strength and conditioning i was planning on doing just in case.

Note
rhr:65 (rest day)

Today was rest day after orienteering and hillrun.

I played football match for 1 of the 4th year teams in the senior football tournament. our team aren't great we were 6th out of 8 and we were playing the team in 1st who hadn't lost yet.
I was mainly goalkeeper and then i went out field. I suddenly realised that the fitness required is very different to running and it was surprisingly tiring.

Cycling: Commute 40:09 [4] 7.85 km (11.7 kph) +257m
ahr:138 max:162 rhr:65 shoes: Cycling shoes

Cycle up to 3roc for hill race.
It was pretty ok (about intensity 3) untill I got to Marlay park, and then the climb from there was huge!!

Cycling: Commute 20:23 [4] 7.81 km (23.0 kph) +55m
ahr:128 max:151 rhr:65 shoes: Asics Running shoes

Cycle back from 3roc after hill race.
It was all very easy on the way down to Marlay park (intensity 2 again), but as soon as the downhill stopped i really tried to push myself as hard as i could to get home and out of the cold and the rain as soon as possible.

Running 44:00 [5] 8.58 km (5:08 / km) +416m 4:08 / km
ahr:171 max:181 rhr:65 shoes: Asics Running shoes

Hills
Hillrace up 3roc, it was a weird route but very enjoyable.
There was less distance than they had originally said (10.0km) but considerably more climb then they said (310m).
This was weird but anyway, i had an ok run but struggled on the uphill because of the cycle up earlier, my legs were tired.
I was with Conor for a lot of it but i pulled away on the final climb up to fairy castle.
i think i may have gained some time on him on the downhill because i beat him by about 2 mins and i wasnt running fast enough to gain 2 mins on the uphill.
The downhill was immense it was so much fun passing people who should be beating you and them not being able to keep up. The road wasn't as nice i still gained places but it was so sore on my calfs (stupid hillrunners).
I also beat Kieran Rocks but i think Niall was a good bit ahead of me i'm not sure

Running 20:00 [2] 3.0 km (6:40 / km) +50m 6:09 / km
rhr:65 shoes: Asics Running shoes

My warm up before race.
I used the cycle home as a cool down.

Stretching / Rolling 10:00 [1]

Stretching at home after race.
My calfs were killing me.
