Event: London Night Series 2015-16 #4: Wimbledon Common
 

Wimbledon Night O
good warm up for BNOC, lots of indistinct paths, courses had route choice, although the controls were pretty easy to find, didn't feel strong, but the right calf didn't complain at all

#3 unnecessary hesitation, didn't simplify enough at the start of the leg (also cut through the bramble but the control was just off a path beyond [50]
#5 again didn't simplify enough, tried to follow paths but got the wrong one and had to relocate on main track [90]
#7 cautious, didn't cut through light green [10]
#8 found unmarked path so drifted right [15]
#11 caught in holly exiting the control [15]

6th (43), 6mins behind Michael Crone, 5 behind Couldridge

Long - Splits

had to give the Ashridge event a miss because of the calf strain, although if I'd had my own transport I might have been tempted, can't hardly feel as I walk around, glad of the lie-in though, hopefully be fit for the night event on Tuesday

KV's core conditioning and hip stretches, booked a massage for next week cause I certainly need a bit of loosening

Streatham Common, Norwood Grove, Norwood New Town
left the Garmin charger in the car so no GPS while I'm in London and no 1km intervals, a brisk run around points south of West Norwood, calf tightened after about 6km and then started to protest after 7km, walked back
