Bilsdale. Up to Urra Moor with Hannah, then down to Chop Gate, up cock howe then back over the Cleveland Hills. Put in a few uphill efforts mid way to soften the legs up for the last hills, which worked. Moving ok on the flatter bits but steeper bits a bit of a struggle.

Stewart parkrun tempo.

Orienteering - Urban 13:58 [3] 3.17 km (4:24 / km) +30m 4:12 / km

2nd course I'm a keen bean!

Generally found it difficult to spot gaps in hedges/walls on the map. Will do some proper O in the lakes but not bothered about urban/sprint unless it's on my doorstep. Not travelling for 'big' events.

Orienteering - Urban 18:35 [3] 4.2 km (4:25 / km) +20m 4:19 / km
shoes: NB Vazee Rush

Token flag chasing as near by. Pretty simple, especially when you know exactly where the water crossings are.

2nd set felt like a proper session for the first time!
Youth in the car near the top sparked up their jazz cigarettes in the last set, so maybe that was the reason I got a bit faster.

slept:8.0 shoes: Xtalon 212 #12 (Dragon)

Middle 3/4s or so of the Old Crown Round. A few racing lines to iron out and a few bearings to take and avoid indirect trods on the day. All very runnable and plenty in the back end to cause suffering.
Nice day, cloud base 750m and a bit breezy on Skiddaw. Bumped into the Keswick fast boys posse underneath Foule crag

Blake Fell Race, 10th, +4min decent field.
Fairly sensible tempoey pace up to gavel, then pushed a bit harder to Blake before the descent where I gained 2 places on the Pen traverse. Feeling alright, something to gain on the ups - let the group ease away but just focusing on myself, not really racing others at the moment. All good for the moment and great fun.

Yomp for Hannah's birthday - Moses trod, Gable and back on the Borrowdale routeish. Gable line pretty good, honister line a bit off?
Bluebird day, frozen ground and jets playing about.

Slept poorly last night as anxious about getting a house we looked at yesterday, but got home to a message saying we had it so the south lakes move is on!

Back from Castleton via Baysdale. Tried to get moving a bit on some of the gentle downhills. Struggled a bit uphill in the last 40mins or so but that strength will build.

Monument and the moor's better trods, lingering mist over the plain and and cracking sunset made it worthwhile. Still feeling a bit off , not sure if too much last week, water summat funny, fighting something off or underlying stress of selling house/trying to find somewhere to live.

Commondale Clart - 1st. Man it felt good to be back racing again.
Good to get some feedback on the reintroduction of training. Kept honest on the skate out and managed to eek out a gap on the boggy stuff on the way back and keep it smooth on the fun single-track.

It's not quite County XC or trigger but some good feedback.

6x4T(1.30) on the Battersby loop. Avg pace of 3.41 which was a bit quicker than just before xmas. Legs felt fairly heavy and tired after the last 2 days - planning on having 2 clear days between sessions, but wanted to squeeze this in before Sunday's race this week.

2 x (4x70s) hills.
Bit more proactive getting down the hill in between - under 90s recoveries, 5min up then down the hill in between the sets

Hrv 51.
Kil, Bays and Grib Dales with Caroline. Mainly happy to not be dropped as she's in good form after 34.35 at Ribble Valley.

I feel like I'm starting to get a bit of mojo back and keen to get back into proper training in after 3.5 months easier post DB. I just need to make sure I don't get eyes bigger than my belly (I sort of want to do every kind of session possible in the next 2 weeks!) and build up sensibly - there's no important races until April at the earliest, and being careful with my body will be required, especially as we'll soon have the stress of moving house added in.
