Orienteering 53:20 [3] 7.56 km (7:03 / km) +280m 5:57 / km
Turkey race.
Legs had absolutely nothing in them from about 5 minutes. Led Andrew Llewelyn around the first few controls and then just died. Tried to slog it out but was getting no return from my legs. Since I was rather tired I made one two min mistake on 11 and my route getting in all the odd number was not great. Beaten by a lot of people I normally beat, sign to take it easy and recuperate my body before Spain :)

Orienteering 1:01:00 [3] 10.1 km (6:02 / km)
High dam
Some of the fam went for a walk there again. So I used for an opportunity to do some orienteering.
Warm up and down
5 x O intervals
5 x hill sprints
7 min threshold around the dam
Great session really enjoyed, easier to orienteer with everything on the map and I was actually orienteering in the light this time.

Running 1:31:00 [3] 14.0 km (6:30 / km) +800m 5:03 / km
Long Run with Adam after the TR. Adams not very fit at the moment so it was a case of running for about a minute and then turning back and regrouping whilst we were taking on the ascent. As we got higher it started getting rather chilly and I was really regretting not taking my buff,ears were freezing. Pushed on through the cloud up to Buck Pike. Got Adam's GoPro out at this time and took a cool video along the ridge to Bucks Pike and onto Dow Crag(In ankle deep snow at this time) came off Dow crag on a really icy technical descent. Visbility reduced even more up to the Old man but it suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Saw a fair few people with crampons up the tops to give people an idea of how icy/snowy it was(Pussy's if you ask me) As we descended we broke from the cloud and really got some great views it cot more and more fun as the ice started to melt and I could really pick up some speed. Really Great fun!
Orienteering 14:00 [3] 3.5 km (4:00 / km)
Turkey sprint around Ulverston leisure Centre and a maze halfway through the course. Didn't really understand when we had to do the maze so got disqualified. Out of all the areas we have this is probably the most boring one LOC has, looking forward to Great tower on the 30th.

Orienteering 45:00 [4] 6.0 km (7:30 / km) +200m 6:26 / km
Rusland Beeches score.(Mass Start)
Went pretty good,Rob and Matt keeping up for first few and so was Ali and then gradually just left them and Matt and Ali took a different route. A bit sloppy at the end though. Ali Thomas only 2 mins behind me, glad I'm not in his age class!
Guess at distances as no Garmin.

Natt Orientering at Hight Dam. Started running as dusk so gradually got darker and darker. All quite good until one mare, really difficult because a lot of paths and walls were removed on the map + I didn't have my compass. Lap of the dam after.

Hilly steady run up Kirby Moor. Snotty before and really don't want to get ill again so just did the 40 minutes. Think this might be the fastest time I've done this loop before.

Initial training was going to be an hours steady run, however i only had two peices of toast this morning and wasn't feeling great, so I just did 10k. If revision goes well today i'll maybe do 5k later in the evening. Steady to start with and picked up the pace in the last two 2k.

Long run with Sasha in a very snowy pentlands! Loved it, running out of a energy at the end so a quick stop at currie Coop for some cookies and jelly babies to refuel, food has never tasted better before. Snow was up to knee level a lot of times, made it tough going!
Best training session since being at Edinburgh.

Easy with Jack around campus. Feeling nearly 100% now, just gonna gradually ease myself back into training this week and a normal training week next week, followed by a really big week back home in the lakes, then an easy week before a hard week on training camp with EUOC.
