10 AM

Running warm up/down 21:29 [2] 3.92 km (5:29 / km) +10m 5:25 / km
shoes: inov-8 oroc 330

Warm up for Culbin Event, including some drills and active warm-up exercises.

Orienteering race 54:22 [4] 8.43 km (6:27 / km) +2m 6:26 / km
shoes: inov-8 oroc 330

Culbin race, one of the best races of the year and a top quality bottle of whisky on offer for the winner of the brown. Unfortunately I was on the blue and didn't even win that.

Ran on 1:15000 - no problem at all, have no idea what all the fuss was about in 2008.

Running warm up/down 27:36 [1] 4.72 km (5:51 / km) +5m 5:49 / km
shoes: inov-8 oroc 330

cool down, did as much as I could to get in a few more km's, did my own cool down and then joined 'tesco value' Kris(p) and Pete for theirs.

Then an 8 1/2 hour drive back to Sheffield.

10 AM

Running 11:18 [2] 2.2 km (5:08 / km)
shoes: inov-8 oroc 330

Warm up run from the car to the start.

Orienteering 42:45 [2] 5.39 km (7:56 / km) +5m 7:54 / km
shoes: inov-8 oroc 330

Running around at the back of the pack at the middle training on Lossie and then collecting some of the controls.

3 PM

Orienteering 47:35 [1] 5.14 km (9:15 / km) +20m 9:04 / km
shoes: inov-8 oroc 330

Hanging controls at Roseisle, there is something about this map that I just don't get on with, although apparently I am not the only one. Its a shame that its not mapped to the same standard as Culbin.

Also ran back through the controls I hung with the leading guys nice to be moving a bit faster than the crawl that I was hanging at.

Warm up for Sprintervals

Orienteering 30:01 [4] *** 6.09 km (4:56 / km)

Collecting the controls as last starter for each of the three sprintervals, running hard but getting a bit of recovery trying to untie/tangle each of the controls. Highlight was watching Douglas run in to dead end after dead end on the second.

Morning run, down to Rivelin along and back. Starting to feel a bit less flat, maybe the altitude training from last week is starting to kick in?
