Off-road running 28:30 [1] 4.0 mi (7:08 / mi)
slept:8.0 shoes: Asics Enduro
Easy morning run around Ely - off-road (KS, CH, River, Woods...). Felt quite bouncy.

shoes: Integrator
Warm up and down at Lynford.
Orienteering race 29:20 [4] 4.6 km (6:23 / km)
shoes: Integrator
Decided to do Green as was at the event with just Dylan (on yellow). Good to do these shorter courses occasionally - no way of making time back up if you slip! Pretty clean and was particularly pleased with running on compass and pacing through the 'green' plantation stuff. No major errors. Lost time at 5 (only seconds - slightly hesitant), 7 (gambled on vegetation and lost but only cost 20 seconds) and 12 (biggest error - chose the wrong route and was left with a 400m compass bearing through very vague and featureless pseudo 'white' forest - drifted 100m north and lost about a minute?). Thighs a little heavy on the path running....

Nice to be running out in daylight. Ran around Kings, through the golf course, over to Cherry Hill and back. Decent pace and felt ok, in spite of the fast...

Off-road running 45:00 [2] 6.0 mi (7:30 / mi)
slept:8.0 shoes: Asics Enduro
Lovely run in the rain and gloom... ah, good old English November weather! Ran on the fields at school then out across the edge of the ploughed fields and woods and up the track past the Traveller camp and back. Felt great - strong, relaxed and with a lovely spring in step. 'I'm only happy when it rains...'!
