Baildon Bank and back through Hirst Wood and the canal. Felt good this morning, first time in a few weeks to have felt fully recovered and having some beans. Hopefully timing things nicely for next week.

Sprint training in Skipton. Planned it with a decent amount of barriers. Bit of multi-tech sprintervals. First twisty loops, then short legs in to a long routechoice, route choice, technical school area, sprint-corridor and finishing with route choice. Didn't push full gas but just kept everything controlled and felt confident. Obviously helps with having planned it but it's a bit of a needs must sometimes. Tried to focus on getting my head up early to spot underpasses/shapes of buildings, went well. Ankle less sore.

Similar to yesterday. A bit less ankle stiffness which is good.

Easy lunch loop. Managed to tip boiling down my forearm last night, quite badly burnt and blistered, not super fun. Little discomfort running but not too bad. At least the tofu was good.

15x200m(45s) on the path in the park. Reading tricky Italian maps from MOC 2019. Good to read at high speed and keep contact. Last one without a map felt good.

Inside ankle and lower calf very stiff and tight. Not surprising after such a steep climb on Saturday but need to keep on top of it and be sensible. I think with trying to run faster on the flat I need to be more on it with lower leg conditioning and maintenance, especially forefoot running.

Long easy run on the canal and river. Linked a nice loop up to keep it flat in the valley, mostly on trails. Body felt ok but legs a it sore from yesterday, especially quads. Some stiffness/soreness from R ankle, felt like I worked it a bit yesterday.
