Good Times

Note

At Mark and Alice's grinding down those last issues but the Team were on fire working together - events are looking good and so much better than us misfiring at each other on the phone. Very impressed with my controller.

Re ran Yate race in the heat of the day, it was hot, not very fit and in some distress. Good course and pretty much error free,

Thursday Aug 22, 2019 #

Controlling 2:00:00 [2] 10.0 km (12:00 / km)

A long day both Broughton and Whitford and a day with mixed results. An early start and gloomy by the time I returned to Bristol

Purdown new normal loop

Tuesday Aug 20, 2019 #

orienteering 1:15:30 [3] 7.0 mi (10:47 / mi)

Ran along the coast path on a glorious sunny day. An old guy rushed past ne near the start but after I had warmed up a bit I rushed passed him and ran way! Ha! Its ages since I have actually overtaken anybody even if he was an old guy! I cracked on and did a good time to where I turned 36:40 and overshot my usual point . I was inevitably a bit slower back, partly because the south part is a bit overgrown but also because there was a long group of ramblers, progressing at a speed that Evie and Oliver could match, so I had to divert. Really enjoyed the run, a long time since I said that, I bought an ice cream to celebrate.

C • Haha, sounds fun! 1

orienteering race 1:20:46 [5] 5.8 km (13:56 / km)

Day 5 Long Race Craig a Barns, 48/75. Perhaps surprisingly not a bad run at all. Ran almost first through essentially virgin forest - very enjoyable and challenging - I might do this more often. But does shows how much more difficult an early start can be and how much of a disadvantage from a results perspective

Warm up on flat and then fast walk on steep hill
