Training Log: Sudden

AHDR group ride. Like last week, a lot more work than I would have liked or what I recall I had to put in. But also like last week, managed to hold on until the end and last third wasn't that bad at all.

ARK coaching, but running wasn't very pleasant. Knees pretty sore from the weekend.

Did another robo pacing when I got home. Zwift rides seem to have a positive impact.

Knee rehab kind of ride with robo pacer.

US Masters day 2. Letchworth east side. Short course, 4km, but really cool nav. Pretty much all was hill side running. Got off to a good start today again and had a minute lead already after 2 controls by staying error free. That lasted a few more controls but couldn't keep it together. Came too low on 5 before making a parallel error to 6 and I was now a couple of minutes behind Wil. Next set of controls went really well but managed to drop 5 minutes on the last one. Again, a good race that turned ok halfway through ended up poor at the very end. Enjoyed the nav though. Knees sore from yesterday but a stretching and walk/gentle jog before start helped.

Event: OUSA 2023 Masters Nationals
 

US Masters day 1. Classic distance. Good start, very easy nav, and had a lead after #4, lost 2 minutes, at least, on poor route choice to 5 but managed to get back to the front at #5 but that didn't last very long. Dropped a few minutes on #7, bearing a bit off and didn't see the boulders. Next couple controls went ok but then a triple of mistakes 30s, 1 min, and 2.5 min on the last ones made the race a rather poor one overall. Running legs were best they have been though for a long time although they started to hurt after 45-48 minutes.
