Warm up/down warm up/down (Terrain) 10:00 [1]
shoes: Inov8 Mudclaw 330 'O'

ferreting about around the mines beforehand

Orienteering intervals (Burbage Mines 'sprint' 1) 14:45 [3] ***** 1.5 km (9:50 / km) +55m 8:19 / km
spiked:6/12c slept:7.0 shoes: Inov8 Mudclaw 330 'O'

On a very fun contour map by Marcus.
Was running well in terrain, but nav was pretty shocking. A few slight errors as kites were well hidden to add to the challenge (including standing on top of one and still not noticing it...) but on 5 and 9 I just didn't pay attention to the map and fcuked up. Other than that some nav was OK, but most rusty. Really needed to slow down but decided at the start that over 1.5km I was going for broke. Ash deservedly kicked my ass.

Orienteering intervals (Burbage Mines 'sprint' 2) 15:30 [3] ***** 1.5 km (10:20 / km) +55m 8:44 / km
spiked:6/12c shoes: Inov8 Mudclaw 330 'O'

part 2. Again still running well in terrain but only the 1 error here, but man was it a biggy! - leaving 4 didn't check the map so I had no clue where I was and so ended up back at number 1 to Rhys's hilarity. Then a fanny at 8. After the error it was me and Pete Gorvett all the way - him taking the less-hilly route choice and me straight lining everything, as I did all day.

Fantastic fun, lots of people around as well! Will have to get out again before JK though to sort out the whole contour interpretation mind. Or maybe I just need to slow down and use the compass (only used the compass twice today - and 1 of those was for checking North before I started...)

Running - Road (Road) 16:30 [2] 3.67 km (4:30 / km) +73m 4:05 / km
slept:7.0 shoes: Asics somethings

Time to up the training mileage (or should that be kilometreage?)
pre-circuits run as I had time. Walkley, Crookes, Goodwin. Felt good but legs tired which is odd as I only did about 15km at the weekend and not particularly fast. Must have been the dancing, standing around yesterday and lack of sleep?

Warm up/down warm up/down 20:00 [2]
shoes: Asics somethings

S&C 40:00 [3]
shoes: Asics somethings

lazy lazy session, body was aching this morning and didn't get much better and managed to be in a bit of a boo most of the day. Dogged on most of the exercises.
