Hawkshead weekend, Haverthwaite Heights

Attack Points course on my own until I caught one of our juniors, then slowed down to keep an eye on him.
Visualisation course - ok, got myself into the circle ok but having trouble making sense of the rock features.

Hawkshead Weekend - Colonel's Drive.
Shadowing - Visualisation course, more like terrain intervals for me. Sprint 200m, stop for 30 seconds, sprint 200m and so on.
Shadowing - Control Pick, nice and steady
On my own - Attack Points, which was a map with the area around the control blanked out. I found all the controls ok but I didn't like the exercise. This is more like a 'follow a bearing while ignoring the terrain and the map' exercise, which seems all wrong to me.

Hawkshead weekend - Holme Fell

Control Pick - on my own but keeping an eye out for juniors in need of assistance. Didn't find any. Couldn't find controls very well either, mainly due to it having got very gloomy and I couldn't see the detail any more.

Same venue as two weeks ago, doing laps of a short circuit behind the multi-storey.

Warm up
"Pyramid". Sort of. I've not done a pyramid like this before. Each cycle was 60 seconds, so it started with 30s fast, 30s slow, then 35s fast 25s low up to 55s fast, then we had a minute rest and then went back down from 55 - so after the first 55s effort there was only 5s jog before the 50s effort started. This was about the point my legs began to wobble. Just about kept going as the rests got a bit longer.
Strength exercises - plank, burpees, plank, burpees, squats, burpees
last exercise was walk, jog, sprint covering about 70m altogether, then turn round and repeat, over and over again for ? 8 minutes or something.
Warm down and stretch.

Putting the effort in again but no DOMS this week.

C • DOMS 4

Weetwood and Lawnswood, with 6 x 2min/1min. Not great, and very slow up the Ring Road against the wind.

Weetwood and Parkside. Suffering still from Sunday. Evie bossed me.
