Another mild but muddy run and good to do a semi-long run for the first time in quite a few weeks. Took it very slowly and enjoyed myself as I went exploring the nearest hill to the house that I hadn't run up yet. Not a classic run but worth doing.

Uploaded a load of recent maps here - bottom of page - Google appear to have removed the zoom function, so you have to download them to enlarge them. Anyone have space on a DOMA that I can use instead?

This is going to make interesting AP stalking.

Run - Trail warm up/down 11:28 intensity: (9 @0) + (47 @1) + (1:45 @2) + (4:00 @3) + (3:40 @4) + (1:07 @5) 1.91 km (6:00 / km) +16m 5:45 / km

A bit wet and wild, but not as bad as I was expecting. Started out with a coat, O-top and thermal. Had to ditch the thermal half way and then the thermal when O got back to the start. Can't get used to it being this mild when it's so wet.

Run - Orienteering race 1:01:02 intensity: (36 @1) + (2:47 @2) + (18:34 @3) + (26:58 @4) + (12:07 @5) 8.24 km (7:25 / km) +276m 6:21 / km

Highmeadow Woods, Western Night League, 60 minute score.
Double sided map with odd numbers on one side and even on the other with only one flip allowed. Good format for a small area, but this wasn't a small area!

Had to start with the intention of getting most of the controls, but after I'd collected a load of low pointers it became apparent that just getting through one half would take most of the hour. No option to change plan either as it's meant just getting the high pointers on the other side instead of the side I was on. Going the opposite direction would have solved this problem...

Immensely frustration not having any reflectors on controls, spent 1 minute in every 6 wondering around circles looking for flags. Otherwise it was very enjoyable and actually a nice night to be running. Got well beaten by Ben (who went the opposite way around).

Still coughing a bit, but not worryingly so. Took it nice and easy and went exploring the woods around Taff's Well quarry. Timed it well to miss most of the rain showers. Not so well to miss the hail showers.

MDC run from Mark and Alice's with the 'steady' group. Was just about perfect for me and my wheezy chest. Legs were feeling a bit odd after the week off but wanted t run, lungs were the boss though and listened to them. Really enjoyable mild, wet and muddy trot followed by great food and chat after. Is there a better way to spend an evening?
