XC at the meadows. The first XC race I've done which has been exclusively on tarmac! Still, made more interesting by plentiful people dodging. Under 10 secs off Cammy who just got second at nationals so not bad

Hmm. Noticed a pain in lower front left leg last night and could feel it at a 1-2/10 throughout the run. Different area to all previous shin issues so not sure what is this is about. Will ice tonight. Phys testing was meant to be tomorrow but has been postponed cos of strikes! Probs will be doing it on Friday but am going to keep an eye on this thing...

ahr:166 max:181 shoes: Inov-8 X-Talon 230

SoSOL @ Corstorphine Hill - Brown 7.4km
Nice course. Lots of controls so was basically a long middle. Scrapped around for a tiny bit at a few points but only one mistake more than 30secs. Took it pretty chill cruise pace - definitely worth the trip in :)

Running 33:45 [3] 7.93 km (4:15 / km)
ahr:151 max:165 shoes: Brooks Ghost 12

6x3(2), 4x30(30)
Reps 1,3 and 5 into a driving headwind and 2,4 and 6 into a cushy tailwind so the paces fluctuated a bit lol. All strides were into the wind so just made sure the technique was good, wasn’t bothered about the speed. Good sesh. Shan weather

Easy recovery getting last week out of the legs. New shoes were top notch, very comfy. Got soaked at the end which was rude. Every recovery run with music in is one step closer to achieving my life goal of being able to recite the whole 2.5 hours of Hamilton.

SOL 1 @ Darnaway East
2 little bananas in the first half then caught louis to #14. Then absolutely yeeted myself down a dark green slope headfirst into a log and couldn’t really see for a bit so made sure I was fine before carrying on. Wasn’t a fan of the ankle snapping terrain at the end and wobbled my way to #23. Speaking of ankle it was struggling today, need to watch that. Either way, really enjoyed it even if I wasn’t going full gas after a tiring camp :)

Roseisle first leg relay sim with a big group. Great fun course with some good jostling. Lost the leaders towards the end when I jumped a control in my head. Very useful. Good stuff

Scottish nights @ Findhorn. Took it at a chill cruise pace. Fannied around in a woman’s garden at the start but dutifully went out the same way. Was very hesitant to #13 then got mugged off by the control descriptions for #17. Enjoyed. Not too extreme

Middle training @ Loch Vaa - such tasty skog, really enjoyed. 2 bananas and an overshoot but nothing major. Was enjoying the lack of snow and just navigating really well on compass for nearly all of it. Such a good area.

Aviemore Sprint
Took it at a decent but not too fast pace - trying to keep a lid on speed. Had a wee banana in the detailed paths, nice route on the long leg, then lost a bit of time when I miscounted roads. Decent on the whole

ahr:167 max:187 shoes: Inov-8 X-Talon 230

Long training on inshriach. Looking beaut in the deep snow but made it very tough going. Did a good long leg route then had some faffage on a steep slope before some more when I was thrown by out of date mapping. Apart from that was pretty good

Middle on inshriach (south). Even tougher going but really enjoyed it. Slightly too high on #1 and then really messed up the penultimate by not holding my compass on the slope. Grr. Oh well, learning generated

Ran to leisure centre to do intervals then a blizzard started. Hid under a bush waiting for it to pass then it turned into the type of hail that actually hurts and wouldn't stop so decided to not make myself ill and bailed. Good call

The money session. Big gurn down to cramond. Had to stop twice to empty phlegm but apart from that all good. Went through 5k in 17:44 so slowed down up the grindy hill through silverknowes. Turns out I had the wins against me along the front which was a bit rude. Really pleased with this. Progress
