Fell running warm up/down 15:00 [3] 2.5 km (6:00 / km) +50m 5:27 / km
shoes: Innov8 Xtalon 212 2014

Bit more before than afterwards

Fell running race 1:11:22 [5] 13.0 km (5:29 / km) +530m 4:34 / km
shoes: Innov8 Xtalon 212 2014

FRA Nav leg.
Really good bar one control where missed a few paths and managed to run off the map losing about 4/5mins maybe? Saving grace was that a lot of other teams did that too. Just trusted the navigators ahead, like jack and Todd next to us and then supersaint and winskill, would be atleast one of them right. Oops! But overtook Marcus again so no places lost apart from the steamtrain which also got lost with us that is Joe Mercer. Pulled up about 4/5places I think and then team slipped down a little again afterwards to 17th overall I think. Another good event, glad I chose this over Scotland in terms of travel and stuff. Foot was fine and as a bonus got to see Jonny Brownlee in the flesh being destroyed by Jebby

Note

Disappointing week in terms of running but hopefully the injury flair up has subsided enough to get another weeks training in. Got XC and Midlands next weekend to get over not doing the OMM this year (secretly quite happy I think)

Running 34:46 [3] 6.4 km (5:26 / km) +50m 5:14 / km
shoes: Innov8 F-Lite 2014

Along the Wear in Durham (horrible river especially downstream) with Fran. feeling decent on the way out but then turned back and felt crap as the wind was behind us. Calves tight

Friday Oct 17, 2014 #

S and C 10:00 [0]

Calves trying to loosen off before the weekend as hopefully that will help the injury

Running warm up/down 10:45 [3] 2.5 km (4:18 / km)
shoes: Innov8 F-Lite 2014

Easy warm-up on the track

X-Country warm up/down 19:20 [3] 3.8 km (5:05 / km) +15m 4:59 / km
shoes: Adidas XCS 5

Lap looking for an easily identifiable loop and setting up a reed tripod to turn on.
Lope around again afterwards

X-Country tempo 13:28 [5] 3.8 km (3:33 / km) +15m 3:29 / km
shoes: Adidas XCS 5

2 laps of a loop around Shibden pond testing out spikes and foot before the weekend. Foot and shoes felt good which is pleasing going to jog later to see if there is any after effects.
Laps 6:39, 6:49
feeling a bit naff in the legs to be honest blame that on a sedate week

S and C (Flexibility) 30:00 [0]

Tuesday Oct 14, 2014 #

S and C (Flexibility) 32:30 [0]

Foot feeling a bit better

Cycling 21:15 [3] 6.41 km (3:19 / km) +130m 3:01 / km
shoes: Innov8 F-Lite 2014

Down to the track and back up a slightly different way as I didn't fancy grinding up a busy Whickham Bank

Running warm up/down 20:00 [3] 4.5 km (4:27 / km)
shoes: Innov8 F-Lite 2014

Easy 10 around the track before and after drills

S and C (Drills) 46:45 [3] 4.0 km (11:41 / km)

Thought I'd try this to see how my foot responded as it usually feels good after a bit of barefoot training. Wasn't too bad initially and then after a little forgot about it. Going to roll/ice it a bit more today and hopefully I'll get along to the harriers tonight

Cycling 1:02:00 [3] 17.1 km (3:38 / km) +240m 3:23 / km

To/from uni

Running 20:34 [3] 4.0 km (5:09 / km) +25m 4:59 / km
shoes: Innov8 F-Lite 2014

From the stadium out around the back to the far start. The rest turned back here to do another rep but didn't want to risk things so skipped their first.
Slow disappointed solo plod back turning into a hobble towards the end

Running intervals 20:00 [5] 4.0 km (5:00 / km) +20m 4:53 / km
shoes: Innov8 F-Lite 2014

Had wanted to do 6*1km but foot reared up at 4 annoyingly. Quite sore now so will either just cycle or rest tomorrow.
Despite feeling naff times were good: 3.05, 3.15, 3.04, 3.14 so definitely fitter than a few weeks ago

Note
(rest day)

Trying to let my foot settle down as its still quite bruised and painful to walk on. Should be fine by the weekend at the latest
