9 AM

Running 2:00:08 [2] 15.31 km (7:51 / km) +750m 6:18 / km
shoes: Mizuno Waverider 17

Hill run up Mangerton.
Was whacked when we started climbing, and c.hill and conor went up ahead.
Roar stayed back with me, but I mostly walked for a while, getting my legs back, thankfully roar was jogging slowly for me.
Had a slightly flatter section though and I got feeling better again.
Roar and I waited up for Alison and Neil, and then we went around the lake up top, some pretty serious drops, and generally good views.
Chilled back down, and did a small bit extra to hit 15km, and then a small bit extra to hit 2hrs.

Orienteering 51:46 [5] 6.83 km (7:35 / km) +250m 6:24 / km
spiked:17/21c shoes: Inov8 Oroc 280 (July '14)

Double looped mass start.
Started out and was pretty clear I was on the same course as Niall and roar.
Was in behind for a while, niall took a different route and seemed to fall back a bit. Saw conor on the other course a bit. Mistake from Roar, so I take over navigation for 2nd half of first loop.
Finished that loop pretty much with Conor and Roar.
Started next loop. lost maybe 10s to roar on 3 consecutive controls, because of marsh, indecision, and then routechoice, and spent the rest of the course trying to claw back roar's lead, but never quite made it.

Orienteering 42:27 [1] 4.22 km (10:04 / km) +50m 9:30 / km
spiked:2/4c shoes: Inov8 Oroc 280 (July '14)

Collecting controls with Conor.

Running 4:33 [1] 0.48 km (9:29 / km)
shoes: Inov8 Oroc 280 (July '14)

Orienteering 18:24 [3] 3.07 km (6:00 / km) +100m 5:09 / km
spiked:7/10c shoes: Inov8 Oroc 280 (July '14)

Short relay.
Ran with Kat.
Started a little behind the others, got very confused by the big open depression to 3, and then the pahs afterwards, and really wasted a lot of time there, so it didn't go too well.

Orienteering 7:22 [5] 1.49 km (4:57 / km) +50m 4:14 / km
spiked:3/4c shoes: Inov8 Oroc 280 (July '14)

Short ungaffled mass start.
Was behind c.hill and conor for most of it, passed roar on the long leg to 2.
I messed up 3, but then so did the two in front, so there were 4 of us together-ish as roar caught us again.
I hit the track first and ran fast, so I finished first.

Orienteering 21:31 [1] 2.97 km (7:15 / km) +100m 6:12 / km
spiked:2/2c shoes: Inov8 Oroc 280 (July '14)

Collected 2 controls and then jogged back to dooby's.

spiked:11/15c shoes: Inov8 Oroc 280 (July '14)

Did the first 15 controls from the Munster Champs a few months ago.
Not too many issues, but 14 I found no feature.

Orienteering 1:06:47 [2] 7.91 km (8:27 / km) +250m 7:17 / km
spiked:15/17c shoes: Inov8 Oroc 280 (July '14)

Blue course from a while ago on Crohane lake.
Nice physically by Crohane's standards.
Pretty good but not perfect.
Started easy, but felt strong and was a little quicker in the 2nd half.

shoes: Mizuno Waverider 17

90mins.
Exploring the national park.
I had planned more like 15km, but it turned into 90mins.
Ran out with Clodagh to Ross Castle, was slow but good, so I reran the loop after I dropped her back a bit quicker.

Note
(rest day)

My training plan is calling this a 100km mountain base week. So, we'll see how it goes.
I guess not an amazing start, because Swansea lost badly.
