Sheffield Rat Race. Busy morning setting out controls for the morning exercise and then the first part of the race, just about got them out in time. Relaxing afternoon in Magma (where I got to dot he indoor 30m abseil in the dark!) before chasing the slowest teams back to Devonshire Green and picking up the controls along the way. Interesting to be on the organising side rather than competing, though the racing is more fun! Well done to Nails and Dark Peak for their comfortable victory (well at least it was more than we got beaten by in Edinburgh?)

Pre JWOC Junior Coaching, Denmark. Long day travelling home. Tour good fun and areas very interesting (and maps mostly poor). Calf a lot better but needs some work.

Pre JWOC Junior Coaching, Denmark. Middle tour champs on Blokhus. Started well and running ok, but lack of training showed as it got a bit tougher. Navigated well but lost 4 minutes looking for a flag that I just could not see despite being on the right spur (it was there, I found it straight away when I came back). Tired towards the end when my leg calf started hurting. About a minute down on the fastest guys so would have whooped ass had I been a bit luckier!
Run - Orienteering 15:00 [1] 1.0 km (15:00 / km)
(injured) shoes: Asics 2120
Pre JWOC Junior Coaching, Denmark. Hung a few controls for Sprint training on a very, very bad map (Molleparken). Pity, as it was a good area.

Pre JWOC Junior Coaching, Denmark. Classic training on Vester Torup. Cracking area, but map a bit vague in places, lots of green and low visibility. Difficult. Shadowed Alice for first few and the collected men's courses. Ran hard (first time in ages) and had a few problems until I got into the rhythm. Very much enjoyed it, juniors not so much (too green).
