Running 53:47 [3] 4.54 km (11:50 / km) +890m 5:59 / km
ahr:143 max:170
From about halfway I started walking in conor’s slipstream, and from about 2/3rds there was no longer slipstream.
Foot got pins and needles from too much uphill.
Good for the legs though.
Running 26:42 [3] 4.52 km (5:55 / km) +14m 5:49 / km
ahr:137 max:158
Safe to say I am not as good on this descent, hopefully there is a descent for me, otherwise I will have to relinquish my self-proclaimed crown of ‘class descender’. Not ideal.
Fairly ridiculous that Conor was over 3mins quicker.

A long distance today (9k long distance).
Steadied the boat a lot, reared in the running a bit was smooth and clean through the terrain aside from a 20s miss on #4.
Really enjoyed it, and not too slow going. Good day out, the torrential downpour added to the experience.

Orienteering 44:05 [4] 6.21 km (7:06 / km) +72m 6:42 / km
ahr:150 max:178
Started nicely (on a ridiculously easy #1), and was feeling good. This slowly faded to being a bit more laboured in the second half, but enjoyed the forest a lot.
Lot
Small slip (~20s) on #3, #8 & #10, and bigger misses (~45s - 1min) on #4, #5 & #11. These 3 were a little frustrating because I was running quite well, and got distracted by other people on the first 2, and possibly third.
Still though, some controls were very good, so happier with the performance than yesterday and left the forest with a bit of confidence. Also, despite enjoying the bare rock stuff yesterday, this forest was very nice and enjoyed it much more.
Running 3:20 [2] 0.47 km (7:04 / km)

Running 43:48 [2] 7.34 km (5:58 / km)
ahr:124 max:145
Orienteering 35:20 [4] 5.87 km (6:01 / km) +58m 5:44 / km
ahr:154 max:176
Legs fairly stiff and heavy so was struggling to get moving or much flow.
Scrappy nav too didn’t help, with small misses (~15sec) on #1, #2, #13, and big misses (~1min) on #3 & #7.
Was a bit distracted and probably put a bit of it down to first day back in the forest. But not very worried about performances at these races anyway so.

Running 1:01:21 13.05 km (4:42 / km) +48m 4:37 / km
ahr:157 max:184
Planned on doing 5, but legs were getting a bit tired and the group were disbanding, so I was very content to call it at 4.
Threw on the road racers after rep 1 as it's been a while and I'll wear them for Warriors.
Good group out, with Luke McMullan leading the way - new Rathfarnham recruit. Between this and Sunday I think that'll count as plenty of road-work for warriors now, legs should be in decent stead. Time to give sub-60 a good crack.
