Run - Trail 4:01:52 31.33 km (7:43 / km) +1423m 6:17 / km
ahr:141 max:174 shoes: La Sportiva Crosslite
This was much harder than it should have been! Not complaining, as it had a good bit more climb as well, but wasn't very happy with the bonking that went on after 2.5 hours, did mange to maintain a good enough pace for the last hour but it was hard work. Wasn't helped by not having enough water or food with me, but need to do a few more longer runs methinks. In the Black Mountains with Chris MDC and Ed MDC, all new for me and a lovely day to be out exploring. Quality.

Maybe should have gone out for a wee while, but was happy enough in front of the TV!

Mapping 45:00 [0] 6.04 km (7:27 / km) +190m 6:26 / km
Last day mapping in Llantrisant (3.5 hours), just a wee bit of checking to be done now but glad to have it out of the way. Pretty decent area all in with quite a few areas of nice detail and some lovely woods. Was planning on heading out earlier but it was a little damp, turned out lovely and sunny when I got though.

Run - Trail 1:24:36 13.38 km (6:19 / km) +586m 5:11 / km
ahr:147 max:178 shoes: Saucony Excursion TR5
Lovely evening run with Chris and Dave from MDC, went exploring from the woods in Draethen, through Machen and north onto the ridge beyond. Very nice it was, if pretty steep, but sort of ran out of daylight to make it into a nice route. Felt okay but didn't push too hard, although stopping on the climb made me feel quite dizzy, quite okay when back into running though.

Walked into and out of work, saw a group of chavs walk straight out into the road, assuming everything would stop for them, while they made a beeline for Home Bargins. The similarities been them in both their actions and their size and a herd of cattle was remarkable.

Canoeing 1:00:00 [1]
Less paddling and more skills this week, was surprised at how much more natural it felt, not that I'm any good at it. Even enough room in the boats for me to feel semi-comfortable for the hour. Also surprised at how stiff and tired my legs are after last nights run!

Run - Trail 41:15 8.26 km (5:00 / km) +41m 4:52 / km
ahr:139 max:154 shoes: Asics 2140 (10)
HFW. Felt horribly stiff starting out (expected) but loosened up after about 15 minutes (hoped for) but that was still as much as I was capable of (disappointing). Going to be a while yet before it will be sensible for me to run hard again.
