6 AM
Running 1:30:00 [3] 10.6 km (8:29 / km) +250m 7:36 / km
Woke up early in the tent and didn't expect to get back to sleep, so decided I might as well make the most of spending the night on the edge of Bethecar Moor. Headed out with the 1:50,000 OS and tried to follow some paths, but gave up after a while and just picked a line through the fells. Cuckoos abounding, mist on the distant hills and a lovely reflection of the Old Man in Coniston Water. Not moving very fast and lots of photo stops, but just nice to be out.
11 AM
Running warm up/down 10:00 [2] 1.0 km (10:00 / km)
Orienteering race 16:00 [5] 2.1 km (7:37 / km) +80m 6:24 / km
Short TD3 leg in a winning AdHoc team with JD and KC. Just fine for me today!

Running warm up/down 25:00 [2] 3.0 km (8:20 / km)
Orienteering race 1:02:00 [5] 7.5 km (8:16 / km) +210m 7:15 / km
British Champs individual, High Dam. 2nd W45, 1:30 down on KB-J
Didn't feel at all well prepared, having had a busy week and no time for O tech training or map geeking. Also unconfident going into the LD terrain for the first time in a while. Took a couple of legs to get into the map but then settled down well. Overall really happy to achieve a smooth race and feel like I'd pushed as hard as I could. Losing it a little over the last few legs with some small mistakes, but KB-J was running faster and deserved the win.

Jog out from middle of Aboyne on DW to road crossing and back after intervals.

Didn't fancy Tilq in the evening - seeing too many controls already this week - but felt in need of something a bit faster. 10x1'+1' along the DW to gliding strip and back again. Tired by the end.

Running 45:00 [2] 5.0 km (9:00 / km)
Confirmation at midday that we were quorate for ASC in Braemar. 8 boys - maybe need to find a female equivalent of Go Hard or Go Home to inspire my next group :-)
Hang controls near duck pond, walk across village to get kids, back with kids, back to school after session, back to duck pond, then collect controls. Hoping I can make that a bit neater for future sessions.
Nice bunch of kids and lovely afternoon.

Mountain biking 58:00 [3] 8.6 km (6:45 / km) +300m 5:45 / km
With E up the big Birse track, over to Glencat, along the road, then back over the hill finishing with some nice bits of single-track descent for E. Legs feeling v tired on the climbs. Had planned to do something longer, but this was enough for me today.
