November Classic - Eyeworth & Bentley. New forest

At the start Mark2, told me he was suprised i'd turned up for such an area. After control 3, I wondered why I had.

got to rest & prepare well for craneys induction tomorrow... I fear i may suffer signifcantly more than the inductee.

C • Initiation 1

MTB at Cwm Carn,
managed to drag mr burvill out for a loop. Did one loop, a bit wet, but fun. I was a bit faster than tom, but he ws impressive on his £150 jobbie. Given a real bike, i'd say he'd be pretty good. Less stops than normal which was good.

Paintballing, varying exertion levels, generally quite high in short bursts.. went well, our team was pretty dominant, had some good games. Until the final shoot out, where i volunteered to stand with a flag and get shot at until I dropped the flag, my team failed to defend me, and i got pelted by 2 guys, 1 paint ball doesn't hurt, but a dozen in ~8 seconds does.

Lunchtime run, ended up with mr gibbs and mr james, so was a bit faster and longer then I intended... Did the gibbs special long loop of blaise, keeping up a good pace of circa 4.5 min/ks on the flat. I was stuffed....

Run round purdown. Maybe the yanks had decieded to flick gps off tonight as mine took over 15 mins too lock on. Randomly past another headlamp runner, when i passed him again, he accosted me, and it turned out to be a young charles. Felt pretty average, still have slight tightness in bottom of right leg.

C • Felt average 1

Run from matts, up frome, and round a bit, down a few deadends. Felt pretty tired, but good to get out, only slight pain in right lower calf/top of achillies. Bit longer than i intended.

John on the otherhand - obviously didn't try hard enough during the wkd!
