orienteering race 24:00 [5]
JOK chasing sprint, prologue, arrived very tight for time and had no time for proper warm-up, just jogged up to start. Reasonable run - missed one path through gorse and a few hesitations, but pleased with 7th (though over 4 mins down).
steady run warm up/down 10:00 [3]
jog (but very steep!) to start, no warm-down and just short jog to start of final.
orienteering race 21:00 [5]
JOK chasing sprint final. Started 7th, finished 6th (Ed Catmur passed me, I caught Simon Gardner and Spongey was disqualified). 7th fastest time - good start, but wobbled on a couple of legs (running too hard) and hanging on at end to stay ahead of Simon. Good fun, but my legs hurt..... Possibly something to do with lack of fast races recently but also the wine on 2 previous nights.

orienteering race 51:00 [5]
Edinburgh street race. Steady start and enjoyed it - might have missed one or two best route choices, but few wobbles until near end when I caught Brad and Walter and we all proceeded to rush things!
Fairly please with result and position. Really enjoyed race - I seem to be enjoying O this year :-)

Jogging around before start and playing tag with Ewan - good warm-up!

steady run 45:00 [3]
With Sarah along river bank and back via new mansion house (looking like it has been there a couple of hundred years already). A bit tired. Fresh snow underfoot and falling as we ran.

orienteering race 42:00 [5]
Deeside Night Cup Glen Dye, course a bit simple in places (large features and line to follow) but very pleasant. Good run - into O very quickly and a couple of wobbles off line was the worst misses, all controls found cleanly.

Intervals 20:00 [5]
10x2+1 at Glen Tanar with Sarah, did first half of standard loop then back over 2 bridges. A bit icy underfoot in places - interesting to feel difference in stride length and tenseness of abdominals as I left firm ground for snow/icy....
steady run warm up/down 38:00 [3]
Glen Tanar normal route to start and back along road. Lots of new ditches and erosion from snow melt/rain of 2 weeks ago!

steady run 10:00 [3]
Warm-up for Pilates at Banchory
Pilates 1:00:00 [1]
Good session (and room not quite as cold as 2 weeks ago) - felt strong, and only 3 people so lots of hands-on from Emma - good for helping with small improvements.
