Running intervals 24:00 [4] 3.0 mi (8:00 / mi)
4*1200. Haries. 90 recovery
Surprising - hadn't intended to start this session. Certainly not to finish. Went off in the next-to-last group running about 4:45 from chat - hadn't bothered timing either. Still sore and blue.

Orienteering race 23:00 [4] 3.0 mi (7:40 / mi)
RTC Stirling. First starter until Freddie Carcas got added to the list.
Caught Freddie early, despite being untidy in the castle, until flummoxed by levels at 7. Then steady, Scott Collier caught us, until crossed red lines sent me 13-16. Didn't know until I finished. Ooops.
Really superb course, even better than yesterday.
Massive wipe out on slippery cobbles at 4 in front of the marshals. Not an H&S issue, happens all the time, quoth I wiping the blood off the map as I limped away. Couple more falls later - interesting bum-colour in prospect.

Orienteering 56:42 [4] 7.0 mi (8:06 / mi)
So much fun earlier I was desperate to go out again! Got and entry, then got nailed by JonX to do a stint on the start. v.cold, and wobbled off into the castle again for broadly similar stuff, got going better and was 90 sec faster on the way out. Then the long legs began and the legs turned to jelly - wading through treacle in the end. Classic eyes bigger than belly error. (roll on M21E at Balmoral...)
Note
Big success for today: James! A first, and massive moral victory over me, he was 2 mins up before I mp'ed. He had a few moments of glory in the winners chair before Tam Wilson took over.
One more thing to get used to.

Event: Race the Castles
Orienteering race 23:53 [5]
RTC Edinbrgh WRE sprint. 61/85 Yannick Michiels 17:30. Marginal legality, but I hadn't actually looked at the courses (and still made a couple of errors) and was well run out of it by the younger legs. Fun as ever!
Running warm up/down 45:00 [1] 4.0 mi (11:15 / mi)
Various jogging, warmup, down and faffage

Orienteering race 21:00 [3] 2.5 mi (8:24 / mi)
RTC sprint.
Despite having made the map, couldn't make any sense of it off the start, then ran 1-16 and got completely baffled by the tunnel under the level under the canopy. Missed the route for the long leg. Struggling to follow the map afterwards.
Tremendous area. Night-Sprint is HARD. so little time to look at where you're going.
