Run - Trail warm up/down 10:00 [3] 2.2 km (4:33 / km) +40m 4:10 / km
shoes: Inov8
Legs still felt quite dead from last week so tried to get a bit of life into them. Didn't really succeed.
Run - Orienteering race 58:45 [5] *** 9.7 km (6:03 / km) +300m 5:15 / km
spiked:19/20c shoes: Inov8
Aire Regional at Haworth Moor. Mild but very windy so had to take a cag, and as I didn't have any way of carrying it I had to wear it; hot but not too uncomfortable but quite extreme considering it was relatively warm and dry. Not a very inspirational area or planning either (with a very poorly planned leg near the start that would have been far quicker to run along an OOB road rather than the right rough grot on the straight line - I got to the road before realising that I wasn't allowed any further :( It did get me running though and I felt quite good from about half way (with the wind behind me!).
Run - Trail warm up/down 22:00 [1] 3.8 km (5:47 / km) +65m 5:20 / km
shoes: Inov8
Right calf very sore afterwards, so did quite a long but slow warm down jog and tried to stretch it out a bit (but not enough).

Note
iROC mapping. 8.30 mapping; as along a day as I could fit in but needed another 30 minutes to finish the forest section. Nice bit of the map; mostly very clean and fast running with a few interesting features amongst the closely packed trees and walls. Met a group of rabbit hungers which made me think of Yosemite Sam, which I think was a good thing as it took my attention from the fact that there was a group of below average intelligence Geordies wandering about the woods with guns!

Note
iROC Mapping. 8.00 mapping; got dark too early, needed another hour to finish the area I was working on. Again very fast but a lot of fields today with not a lot in. Legs still tired but coping well with the minimal distance covered mapping.

Note
iROC Mapping. 6.30 surveying; not a bad day at all and made some good progress once the tricky quarry area was complete. Very fast area throughout (unless going straight up the not inconsiderable hill).

Run - Terrain 1:55:00 [2] 16.4 km (7:01 / km) +200m 6:37 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Enduro 3
Long plod with Boyzone and fluceluce from the back of Howden Reservoir. Feeling desperately tired so rest compulsory over the next few days, but despite this it was a nice route, good to be out and good fun and company.

Run - Road 52:00 [2] 8.1 km (6:25 / km) +190m 5:45 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Enduro 3
Run to Bingham Park, warmup/down and tried trot home.
Run - Intervals 25:00 [5] 7.0 km (3:34 / km) +280m 2:59 / km
shoes: Asics Gel Enduro 3
Hills in Bingham Park; up to the top, back down a third of the way (keeping speed) and then back to the top (450m & 40m climb). Started well, feeling tired but bouncy enough, then completely ran out of energy at half way, slowed down for the 6th and 7th (of 10) but had to sit out the last three: 2.05, 2.06, 2.06, 2.07, 2.06, 2.09 & 2.20. Well warm out tonight and a big (masculine dominated) group who put on a better show than I managed.

Run - Road 32:20 [2] 6.3 km (5:08 / km) +130m 4:39 / km
shoes: Asics Gel GT 1120 07
Run to circuits with Boyzone from his place; went exploring, got a little lost and ended up in a few dead ends. All good but very tired.
Warm up/down 15:00 [2]
shoes: Asics Gel GT 1120 07
Circuits 40:00 [3]
shoes: Asics Gel GT 1120 07
Body had nothing to give this evening, especially on the cardio exercises (didn't even break 60 on bench hops!) so took it about as easy as you can take circuits and still complete the exercises.
Run - Road 7:30 [2] 1.3 km (5:46 / km) +100m 4:10 / km
shoes: Asics Gel GT 1120 07
Home from circuits, legs woke up a bit. Stupid legs; it's a bit late now.
