Urban orienteering in Manchester yesterday, part of a 4 day series of races. 34 controls, 7.5km, 37mins. Brutally fast. Had a good run, pretty much perfect route (was supposed to be 7.6km best line) came 4th vet by 6 seconds (mildly annoying) and only 16th overall including the fast M21 runners. Happy with that.

Coiners fell race - 11km with 325m vet and a lot of fast trails that my legs can't handle at the moment! Started out hard (careful now) in order to get to the stile that always causes a bottle neck. Ran well up the next climb and flat before having a bit of a wobble along the climb to the Pike. Lost a place, but got it back on the next decent. Ploughed on trying to not stop before the final plunge into the finish line and a sprint away from another local. 1:06, which I'm happy with.

Legs were not recovered from Saturdays race!

Made it all the way round the Round Sheffield Run route. 25km, a bit over 3h10m. There was a certain amount of walking, shuffling and stopping to inhale jelly beans. Approx. 10km more than I've ever done in one go before. Legs are now toast.

Well done that man! It's a great route too, and I guess you can run it from the front door too!

Nice, have you started planning your next long run yet? :grin:

I'm pootling along at 16-20km a week at the moment but struggling to find the time for longer runs. Not sure if I'm getting fitter or running out of one of my meds had a curious side effect but my resting heart rate is in the 40s again for the first time in years and for my last run I stayed in zone 3 the entire time but at a pace where I'd typically be 10-15bpm higher. Now I've got a new supply, it'll be interesting to see if I am actually getting fitter.
