Event: BUSA Championships
 

Warm up/down warm up/down 25:00 [2]
shoes: VJ Falcons

Run - Orienteering race 57:10 [5] ***** 7.9 km (7:14 / km) +415m 5:44 / km
shoes: VJ Falcons

BUSA individual. Steep and rough forest much to my liking, very hard to maintain a good pace (slippery and a lot of fallen trees). Section on open moor was somewhat more dull and more about speed. Map a bit doggy in areas and lost a few seconds on two controls because of this, good course though. FInished third less than 30 seconds behinf Oleg and a further 2 mins down on Oli. Happy with result there were quite a few runners quite close behind me.

Individual - Men's A - Splits

Run - Trail 35:40 [3]
shoes: Asics Gel GT 2100

Along the side of Rivelin. Felt a bit better than yesterday but still heavy and sluggish - will hopefully be feeling better tomorrow.

Thursday Mar 29, 2007 #

Run - Road 34:00 [3]
shoes: Asics Gel GT 2100

Quite an easy run around the hills in Carsick (exploring - very nice). Still feeling very flat, guess tow days of standing doesn't help.

Run - Trail 56:20 [3]
shoes: Asics Gel GT 2100

Run up Black Tor and a loop around the back from Strines. Felt so flat today which was a shame as once the cloud burnt off it was a smashing day. Perhaps I need more protein or carbs in my diet and less sugar and fat...

Run - Orienteering race 1:02:20 [5] 10.0 km (6:14 / km) +340m 5:20 / km

Orienteering near Leeds. Didn't feel great, a bit stiff after such a lazy week. Ran ok but without any agression. Quite a dull area, quite rough open and a steep bit of wood. Poor map and desperate printing.

Jog home after ShAFF race. More tired than I should have been.

Run - Orienteering race 1:01:00 [4] *
shoes: Asics Gel GT 2100

1 hour score around the city centre as part of ShAFF. Intoducede Matt to Oing, ran together. Difficult to ge any flow with so many short legs and answers to write down. Took a penalty and got all the controls, after all, it was for fun. It was No.8 right in the middle that was the only really awkward decision.

CSC in Greno Woods. Cold, windy and snow showers. Fun... Ran fairly well after stuffing no1 up. Not as unpleasant as I was expecting, brambles generally quite low. Plenty of long climbs but a decent course. OJ was 3 minutes clear in the lead just under 56.

Run - Trail 51:35 [3]
shoes: Asics Gel GT 2100

Rivelin with Shane. Straight up the hill from the river. Felt flat for the first half but managed a decent effort on the hills. Had to get out to get rid of the frustration of the rugby results - a last minute try in both games cost the 6 nations.

Strength exercises 10:00 [4]

Nearly gave them a miss as I was spent from the last hill when I got home. Got on ok once I recovered though.

Thursday Mar 15, 2007 #

Run - Trail 47:50 [3]
shoes: Asics Gel GT 2100

Dropped down into Rivelin, along the bottom and then back up the long bridle path. Felt a lot more tired than I was expecting, but it was such a beautiful morning that I just had to enjoy the run.

Worked late in uni, starving when I got home. Lazy really.

Monday Mar 12, 2007 #

A bit tired from yesterday but not suffering. Cardio exercises were hard work and I bonked on the stomach ones, but a good session.

Warm up/down 15:00 [2]

Warm up, down and stretching for circuits

Run - Road 27:00 [2]

Run out to Ranmmor and back with Matt after circuits. Took a while to get going and was always slow, but felt better at the end.

Run - Orienteering race 59:00 [5] 9.2 km (6:25 / km) +320m 5:28 / km
shoes: VJ Falcons

National event, Whitbarrow, Lakes. Ran quite well considering how I felt yesterday and was shocked with position (4th, just over two minutes down on OJ), especially as I made a large mistake. The forest bit was awesome, the open very fast and easy.
C • Nice race 5

Warm up/down 25:00 [2]

Steep jog up the hill to the start plus two km back to the finish.

Saturday Mar 10, 2007 #

Run - Orienteering race 29:10 [4] 4.3 km (6:47 / km)
shoes: VJ Falcons

Short race in Stockbird Head, Lakes. Ran reasonably but my heart beat was strange and I had no ooomph at all. Alos made a dead stupid mistake by following the north line from 15 torwards 4. Nice little wood but didn't enjoy it much.

shoes: Asics Gel GT 2100

Redmires-Stanedge and Rivelin dams circuit with Matt. Tired and stiff from last night but ran ok once things woke up. Matt died at the end so did a few hill reps while I was waiting. Now tired all over...

Monday Mar 5, 2007 #

Warm up/down warm up/down 15:00 [2]

Usuall warming up and down for circuits with a bit of stretching.

Circuits 45:00 [4]

Still a bit off colour from last weeks cold, suffered on the arm exercises but in general wasn't too bad a session. Changed to doing 5 sets of exercises at each station in stead of 6, made it harder as there were more cardio ones and therefore more time spent out of breath.

Sunday Mar 4, 2007 #

Run - Orienteering race 1:07:30 [4] **** 9.8 km (6:53 / km) +385m 5:45 / km

Badge event near Marsden. Cold day and got colder when it started raining, luckily I was back a that stage. Felt slow and tired from last weeks cold but at least I wasn't hacking my guts up. Ran ok when the going was good but had no strenght for the tough bits.

Warm up/down 20:00 [2]

Jog to start (5 mins), coughing and not feeling good. Cleared once running. Jogged back to car park to keep warm as there was no bus waiting.

Saturday Mar 3, 2007 #

Bike - Mountain 2:00:00 [2]

Ladybower and Win Hill, wet and very slippery. No strength and skills lacking. Quite slow but hands and butt sore. Need to get out a bit more often than once in four months...
