Orienteering race (Chasing Sprint) 30:18 [4] **** 3.5 km (8:39 / km)
13c shoes: Adidas Swoop 2s

Prologue for the JOK Chasing Sprint in Holyrood Park. Messed up No. 9 badly (although the map was not great - plenty of unmarked paths that were indistinguishable from the marked ones). Stunning backdrop for the start - just below the summit of Arthur's Seat - and great views around the rest of the course too. Another cold, crisp day.

Orienteering race (Chasing Sprint) 26:30 [4] **** 3.2 km (8:17 / km)
12c shoes: Adidas Swoop 2s

The Chase of the JOK Chasing Sprint. Had no one to chase as had finished so poorly in the prologue. So had a good run and made up a few places - after messing up the first control. It was only 30m from the start, there was a pile of spectators on the hill overlooking it that freaked me out! Grr.

Orienteering race (Urban Race) 54:19 [5] **** 6.57 km (8:16 / km)
shoes: Adidas Adistar Salvations

EUOC Edinburgh City Race. Brilliant. Course included Carlton Hill and Princes Street Gardens. Cold and crisp day. Finished 32nd of 144 on the long course, 23rd of 55 in Men's Open (MO). What other kind of orienteering race these days has 55 runners in MO! Top of the table was dominated by locals (EUOC/ESOC/INT) - Ed had the top non-local result in 7th place.

Road Running race (FPTT) 20:44 [5] 5.0 km (4:09 / km) +65m 3:54 / km
shoes: Adidas Adistar Salvations

Arrived late at today's Finsbury parkrun, had to jog to the start and probably started around 30-40 seconds late. As I was therefore overtaking a lot of people (about 50), I felt like I was going fast, but actually it probably wasn't any faster than my normal pace. I probably could have chased down two more people ahead of me near the end, for a top-10 place, but happy with 11th considering. 20:44 is my race time, actual time probably just over 20 minutes (GPS didn't work too well either.)

Score Orienteering (Street-O) 1:00:30 [4] * 11.7 km (5:10 / km)
spiked:21/43c slept:5.0 shoes: Adidas Adistar Salvations

SLOW Kingston Street-O. Tricky course, lots of dead-ends and controls which looked a lot closer than they were, due to the road layout - in the north part of the map. The south was more urban and built-up, but I spent so long in the north part I didn't have any time for the south. Although I finished 30 seconds late (10 second penalty) this meant I was able to get a 30-pointer. Finished with 420 points out of a maximum of 850 - Ed was top scorer with 580, having run nearly 16km in the hour.
10 PM

Cycling (Back Home) 1:15:09 [3] 26.67 km (2:49 / km)

Via West Hill and Clapham. Very tired after Clapham.

4 PM

Road Running race (5K) 20:25 [4] 5.0 km (4:05 / km)
max:193 shoes: Adidas Adistar Salvations

5K training run around Victoria Park - two laps via the fountain. A bit of a disappointing time, but my first 5K of the year, so something to build on. Waited until 4pm as it was raining for much of the day. KM splits: 4:03, 4:06, 4:09, 4:20, 3:47. AHR unreliable as getting odd results for the first 2km, it was 183 for the remainder.

Cycle Commuting (In to Work) 22:31 [2] 8.27 km (2:43 / km)

Tried to film a timelapse of my commute on the iPhone, but the camera pointed down too much and it stopped when the phone locked after 5 minutes...

Another puncture - on the back tyre, just before getting to work. Grr!

Cycling (Back Home) 31:59 [2] 10.04 km (3:11 / km)

From Regent Street, via Mount Pleasant and the canal. Icy through Victoria Park.

Monday Jan 11, 2010 #

Cycle Commuting (In to Work) 23:55 [3] 8.38 km (2:51 / km)

Along the canal - fine except a snowy bit on the towpath at the end.

Sunday Jan 10, 2010 #

Cycling (To/from Station) 1:11:53 [2] 24.62 km (2:55 / km)

To/from Paddington - out yesterday, back today, both times after dark. Via main-roads as still a bit of ice around - however the big thaw is happening.

Friday Jan 8, 2010 #

Cycle Commuting (In to Work) 22:33 [3] 8.84 km (2:33 / km)

Via City Road.

Cycle Commuting (Back Home) 23:50 [3] 9.19 km (2:36 / km)

Thursday Jan 7, 2010 #

Cycle Commuting (Back Home) 24:31 [2] 9.17 km (2:40 / km)

Via City Road, as still a bit icy. TIme is encouraging though - this may prove to be faster than the canal in good conditions too.

Wednesday Jan 6, 2010 #

Cycle Commuting (Back Home) 31:09 [2] 9.61 km (3:14 / km)

Very icy, so took main roads home. Was an ice-rink outside the supermarket.

Hillwalking long (JOK New Year Trip) 5:50:00 [1] 14.5 km (24:08 / km) +1050m 17:43 / km
shoes: Hillwalking Boots

Beinn Sgulaird from the head of Loch Creran. Cold, but no wind apart from a northerly breeze on the summit ridge. A good stalkers' track took us from the start at sea-level, right up to the 550m col. Lots of firm snow around made for fast, easy walking in places. Great views from the top.

Saturday Jan 2, 2010 #

Hillwalking long (JOK New Year Trip) 7:00:00 [1] 14.3 km (29:22 / km) +1050m 21:29 / km
shoes: Hillwalking Boots

Sgor na h-Ulaidh from Glen Coe, up via Aonach Dubh a' Ghlinne, down via the col to the NW which included a couple of exposed sections above rocky ledges. Some great stone shoots. Cold and snowy. Hard snow and some ice above 900m so used crampons for this section.
