Orienteering 1:30:00 [3] 10.0 km (9:00 / km)

Orienteering on Moel Ysgyfarnogod, to west of Lyn Trawsfynydd. How on earth anyone pronounces those I have no idea. Was hanging the controls (bits of loo roll) for Nick L, Dad and Lulu. Dad caught me halfway and ran bits of it with him from there. Ridiculously windy which made it hard to attach the paper to things. Only problem hanging was 2 (Aka 7) where i had no idea due to the rubbishy map quality so put it on a boulder that was closeish to the right place. Mostly everything else was fine.

Running 30:00 [3] 5.0 km (6:00 / km)

Run out and back to the start from the car.

Running 1:30:00 [3] 13.0 km (6:55 / km)

Beer trail. Started out and felt very short of breath but as I got into it felt significantly better. got lost a couple of times due to my dodgy co-ordinate reading mainly. Found the vague lake edge one unlike someone.. took the 'lead' here with Neil and so ran with him for a bit. Dad caught back up towards the end and found the beer together. Most refreshing Carling after running was fantastic. Jogged about a mile back to the house after. O'ing tomorrow :)

Orienteering 1:10:00 [3] 7.0 km (10:00 / km)

Christmas day o'ing around Glen Dye. Felt so out of breath for the first half and so running was incredibly slow but navigation fine. Felt better second half but with the pace increase and technicality getting harder, my navigational ability vanished. Out for much longer than expected. Looking forward to food anyway

Running 1:00:00 [2] 10.5 km (5:43 / km)

Tinker cup. Sulking. started fine for about 2km then suddenly found it hard to breath and was gasping and kept on stopping to cough. Felt awful. Once dad and about several other slow people past me lost all motivation to try and was reduced to a jog walk. Cold not nearly as gone as I thought..

Blackpool bridge and yateholme res again. Would have done more if not for the tinker cup tomorrow

Note

Bad day rushing around trying to finish my UCAS. Then dragged out to play netball with Louise. First hour I was the only lad with about 20, 11-15 year old girls then second hour with a couple of boys and people my age and older mostly. Tried a mid-range jumper from the 3 point line but got told that wasn't allowed. Dodgy rules. Basketball much more preferable.

Sunday Dec 14, 2014 #

Running (Warm up/down) 25:00 [3] 3.0 km (8:20 / km)

Jogged half the warm up course and then about 10 minutes after much to Julie's surprise

Orienteering 30:32 [4] 5.3 km (5:46 / km)

CSC final, Jr Green men. Very fast course. Basically clean the whole way around until 12 where I binned 2 minutes. It was across a load of paths and I just ran straight hoping it would be ok and it wasn't. Overshot and had to relocate. Should have gone slower and stuck to the paths. Won by 1 minute to harrison and a bit more ahead of Nathan and Michael Hallet. Alright but a win is all that matters. 6 seconds down on the golden boot so GG to Martin W. SYO second to BOK.

Run to the park run and back from the Conways house

Running 18:30 [5] 5.0 km (3:42 / km)

So so so so cold. Arms were dead weights as soon as I'd started and couldn't feel them for the whole run and still couldn't feel them for a while after. Not too bothered as going a bit slower so I'm not too tired tomorow (13km in grathewaite) is fine.
