The Gym

clock February 28, 2008 23:11 by author Admin
Well, I did try and go to the gym on Tuesday, but I got there and it was really busy........ There were no changing room available and no cv equipment either  so I gave up and went home. Anyway, I tried again last night, a bit earlier and although it was still busy, it wasn't as busy... [More]

Holmbury Hill Regional

clock February 26, 2008 22:18 by author Admin
Wow, what a nice day and lovely area ! We had run here before as the Surrey Five O as part of the World Cup in 2005, but I didn't remember or recognise it much. We got there kind of early, as I thought it would take longer to get there than it did ! We were one of the first cars in and subsequ... [More]

Millennium Wood SOG

Well, I found this one tough going !! I remember it being a tough little area, but not quite as tough as I found it on Saturday. Ed planned a really good course, but I did have a slight issue over the really long legs !! (ie they were too long) At least it was a dry morning, although a l... [More]

Another sunny Sunday and another O event ! This time it was a District event at Clapham Woods, a new area to Orienteering in the south east (which doesn't happen very often).

New Shoes !!

clock February 11, 2008 23:31 by author Admin
Having been running in my neutral Nike trainers for three years, I thought it was about time I got my gait analysed again and got some proper running shoes. Laura recommended going to the Tortoise and the Hare, near Cranleigh, so I did yesterday. Again, still lovely weather, great for a... [More]

After my reasonable run on Wednesday, we arrived at Friston Forest on Saturday, on another lovely sunny morning, ready to run on the South Downs. Chris had planned a course which took us the other way round Friston to our most recent outings there and also took us out to the eastern end of t... [More]

Progress Update

clock February 3, 2008 18:42 by author Admin
Since the Concorde Chase last Sunday, I haven't done much, partly due to the knee injury sustained and partly as there's been too much else going on at work !  But, I did go to the Kent Night Cup event at Tilgate Park on Thursday night. It had been very wet and windy throug... [More]
