Running warm up/down 16:00 [2] 2.0 mi (8:00 / mi)
9 AM
Running race 16:59 [5] 3.1 mi (5:29 / mi) +10m 5:25 / mi
Widnes parkrun - 1st, 16.59
Standard town park, with the always handy bandstand as focal point.
Fairly flat, though a slight rise from top to bottom, 3 1/3 laps.
Twisty in places.
Usual muppet set off at breakneck pace, think he was well outside 20.
Felt hard work, was hard work, was weaving in and out of people from halfway which slowed me a little.
Had a little look back with 600m to go and the guy in 2nd was closer than I'd imagined so that kept me going to the finish.

Running 15:00 [3] 1.9 mi (7:54 / mi)
Down to Burley with Matt, who still stubbonly refuses to join in the street O fun even when it is on his doorstep
7 PM
Urban Orienteering 44:40 [5] 6.2 mi (7:12 / mi) +20m 7:08 / mi
Burley in Wharfedale Street O - 1st, 240pts
Didn't take the best route, missed an easy control on each map, which in turn might have allowed me to get one more on top.
Pace wise didn't go with the breakneck speed set by others at the start, then had Tom company until 15 mins when he made the strange choice to go beyond the station. Had to ramp up the pace substantially in the last 6/7 mins to get done what I wanted to.
Good turnout, shame its the last one.

Urban Orienteering 1:15:06 [3] 11.0 mi (6:50 / mi) +50m 6:44 / mi
MDOC High Lane - 1st
Cleared the first map in 37 mins, then got all but 5 on the second map, 4 of which I would have been made to go for really anyway, so job done. Legs alright, could have gone a bit faster, but was flying by the end to get back in time, despite the incessant hail which meant I could hardly read the map. I liked the area.

Running 51:20 [3] 7.0 mi (7:20 / mi) +50m 7:10 / mi
To Horsforth with Dave for Poker.
Delayed fatigue from Saturday, legs aching badly.
Lucky I didn't do more than an hour yday, hangovers have their uses.
Also lucky the wind was behind and the last 2 miles were downhill.

Running 1:00:20 [3] 8.0 mi (7:32 / mi) +75m 7:20 / mi
Predictable hangover, dizzly shuffle, legs not too bad, unless the gradient was up, when legs were very bad. Otley loop extended version.
