Trail/Terrain tempo 41:24 [5] *** 9.53 km (4:21 / km) +200m 3:56 / km
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212 NEW!

Time trial in Delamont. Meant to be 10k but turned out a bit shorter. Really hilly loop so I suffered. Not in shape at the moment after a large break from training but I'm quite happy with the pace. Jack ran in 39something and Eoin was ahead of me in 40something. Had a map so tried to keep contact.

Trail/Terrain warm up/down 10:00 [2] 1.5 km (6:40 / km)

O-intervals in Hillsborough. Came third, second and second. Happy with how I didn't let anyone distract me but missed a couple of controls on the second loop.

Middle in Hillsborough. Ran pretty well but made a mistake at 4 where I was folding my map and didn't read it! Lost about 40 seconds here. Lost about 2mins overall. Jack was about a minute ahead and I was 2nd.

Orienteering 50:00 [3] *** 7.0 km (7:09 / km) +70m 6:48 / km
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212 NEW!

Night-O in Hillsborough. Got a loan of Greg's headtorch which was a big help. Idea was use controls from middle race but as a score with time limit of 45 mins. Think I was under 30 but didn't use my Garmin to save battery. Orienteered really well only made a couple of minutes mistakes which I'm quite happy with. Freakin' love night-o! Went out after to collect controls with Niall.

Orienteering 1:25:56 [3] **** 7.72 km (11:08 / km) +400m 8:50 / km
shoes: Inov8 X-Talon 212 NEW!

Training on Slievenagore.
Put out a control to start with and then went on the corridor course. Was doing reasonable until no.3 where the marker was at the lower wall so spent a while searching for it. I then slipped on the slope down from 3 and banged my ankle pretty bad. Swelled up later. Hobbled the rest of the course and made a hash of the finish not concentrating at all. Did the control pick but just went to the easy controls because my ankle was pretty sore. Terrain was really wet and rocky which is my least favourite terrain so struggled.

Score on Three Rock. Got all controls but one...easily could have got it but underestimated my speed through the last part. Came back with over 6 mins to spare. Enjoyed it a lot and was running well but struggled on the hills.

O-intervals in Hellfire. Loads of felling around 11 and 12 so that really messed me up and didn't go into all the shitty bits. Last interval was the best. 14:40 for 2.3km.Hellfire intervals

Curragh LL.
Messed up 1 and 2 really badly(5mins) then was alright with just another couple of mistakes. Running well until towards the end where I got a blister on my foot. Pissing rain but it was fun.
