11 AM

Orienteering race (middle) 33:00 [4] 4.3 km (7:40 / km) +100m 6:52 / km
shoes: inov8 Mudclaw 272

EM League, Harlaxton College
fun event in reasonably runnable woodland, although the map should've been ISSOM, 1:5000, to do justice to the area around the main house

ran quite well, but lost too much time:

3 - saw the control but considered it too far into the wood to be mine (45)
9 - hesitated at the crossing point because it looked like you were not meant to cross there, then found an extra thicket (60+)
16 - better line was low and up the re-entrant (10)
17 - neglected to check control description, ran around ruined building (20)

4th, 5mins behind Anthony Squire

Mapping 4:00:00 [0] 8.0 km (30:00 / km) +30m 29:27 / km

more bramble action in Farley, one section was quite runnable, the other about as grotty as I had anticipated, but again I couldn't resist wandering over to enjoy the sunshine on the moor, found some more erosion gullies and those wet pits

Note
(rest day)

Over a hundred miles for the second month in a row. December was a bit slack this year so this makes up for it. Good effort, if I say so myself.

(pretty knackered last night)

running 57:31 [3] 10.17 km (5:39 / km) +220m 5:06 / km

The Edges (White, Froggatt, Curbar
didn't know if I was going to make it round this one, felt heavy legged and fatigued (a cold coming on?), but turned out to be a pretty good time, 2mins quicker than last time, faster on each split

made myself study the map on the run, which should've slowed me down, as well

howver, first time I did this route, I did pretty much the same time and I walked for a stretch!

Mapping 3:00:00 [0] 7.0 km (25:43 / km)

out on Farley Moor again, not too much bramble today, got lured onto the open moor by the sunshine and was pleased to find some narrow marshes, depression and gulleys, we've got to get permission for this bit

5 PM

running 37:37 [4] 7.02 km (5:22 / km) +110m 4:58 / km
shoes: inov8 Mudclaw 272

Oker Loop
the plan was to do a long one, but fast, however, I came down off Farley Moor a bit late so settled for Oker as the sun went down

and it was fast, or should I say, up to speed, and without much of a struggle, quicker than my PB (allowing for the extra 300m), though the ascent was slower ...

so I'm back to where I was in Sept 2011?

running warm up/down 5:00 [1] 0.72 km (6:57 / km) +30m 5:45 / km
shoes: inov8 Mudclaw 272

jog/walk back to the house from the roundabout

6 PM

running 1:44:21 [2] 14.24 km (7:20 / km) +300m 6:38 / km
shoes: inov8 Mudclaw 272

Ashover, Redcar Hillside, Stubbing Court
this one was a bit slow, but still there were times where I struggled, especially aroun the turn, where we headed into muddy fields and I didn't know where we were going

have to up the pace in the other runs now
