Short jog around ashtonfield, got rather dark

Rudely interrupted by Josh pouring water all over me and the carpet - I will never understand how he is the favourite child. Felt pretty tired and bleurgh!

Had to go to uni to pick up some video equipment so i thought i may as well swim while i was there. A bit busy but it was ok, i just did 2 x 20laps. Gosh my arms are weak...

Out at walka, josh and i did a killer passing high five! Did a loop up the top to the lake, then a lap of the lake harder, and then ran the rest back to the car.

A run from home. Kind of thought my legs felt slightly more energised walking around all day than when i actually started running... but it went pretty well. The biggest hill was into the wind which was just fantastic

Calves didnt want to run today so i did a cycle. Really good class! The quads were burningggg

Thoroughly enjoyed this! The map and the course, the whole thing!
A bit disappointed to lose so much time on mistakes though. I made a mistake on the first control on both loops, the second time was worse and i think i ended up losing about 4 minutes... Made errors on 6 and 9 too, maybe about a minute each i think, but other than that i found i really struggled to keep my line! Not sure if thats because i was a bit off on my bearings or if im just super weak and dont push through the green well enough... But i feel positive enough with how i went physically, maybe just maaaayyyybe im finally getting better at pushing myself... The feet weren't too phased by the no orthotics during the race but they were aching alot after and are still sore now, so a rest for me today (monday) i think
