Off-road running 22:00 [1] * 3.0 mi (7:20 / mi)
slept:8.0
Warmed up before O training session and warm down afterwards. Felt quite tired but in a good state.
Orienteering 1:16:00 [4] *** 8.2 km (9:16 / km) +350m 7:38 / km
spiked:17/23c
O training session on Sheringham Park & Weybourne Heath map. Ran the M35L course from March 2002 in reverse. Terrain was pretty tough - vegetation not great in places and struggled on the hills. Also missed a couple of the sites and also managed to lose contact with the map on the tricky spur/re-entrant section north of the campsite. However, woods looked gorgeous in autumnal browns and managed to get out in decent conditions.

Decided to have a rest day. Will probably look to have one once a fortnight. Also enjoyed the relaxation of being away with Mrs Ackbar - cottage, papers, sport on tele, food and decently pulled pints!

Easy run around the fields at school. A very grizzly afternoon. Felt v tired and leg sore after yesterday. Some of the staff now think I'm self-harming... because of the thorn-wounds from yesterday! Am being referred to the counsellor.
