Hashing 1:20:00 [1]

Wellingon Statue - Long Valley North - North Hants Hash
Spent most of the time trotting/walking with the children who surprised a few oldies by staying with the pack, very familiar O terrain, went through 4 control sites from 11 May. Socialable hash especially at the on-on.

Note
(rest day)

Feeling wiped out, kids thrashed me running down the hills, maybe two courses was too much.

Running (O Training Race) 44:36 [5] 5.6 km (7:58 / km)

Congo Stream - BAOC Training Event - around 28 degrees - course 5.6k not 5.9k.
Lost around 3.20, visited some controls twice and lost time on both visits esp. 2/20. Good course, glad it wasn't further given the heat. First rough forest O since op, leapt Congo Stream successfully at least 6 times - feeling fine. With hindsight could have run the Scottish after time off to recover from travel - not practical!!

Running (O Training Race) 27:05 [4] 3.0 km (9:02 / km)

Windows Course - some controls were used on the earlier course, lost 2.5min on a short leg (should have used needle more carefully - rather than thinking I knew where it was), 15s on the rest. Running 0.75min/k slower than earlier course - had 15min rehydration break.

Running warm up/down 10:00 [1]

Getting back to "beginners" standard, except right side plank not comfortable.

Swimming 10:00 [1]

Including a few lengths of crawl, fine upper but could feel pliates lower core/repair.

2 PM

Running intervals 40:00 [5]

Whitmoor Common - quiet for a change, too hot for dogs and owners - 27deg!
Started with 4min at 5k pace, 4min jog stretch, then 4 x 5min - 3min rest, 4.59,5.00,5.00,5.01. Decided to concentrate on staying relaxed/economy, seemed to be working by the last one.

Core & legs 10:00 [1]

Mainly upper body weights, core OK after initial shock (long time) - watching the TV.
