I was going to mention maybe reps at certain speed work a certain energy system and longer do something else but glad I didn’t (or have I) 😉 Ankle strength is important too - I hate circuits and gyms so for me orienteering gives my that off trail training.

Do you know who missed out? I saw a post that implied there had been a fast one but no indication it was that fast or who by?

flyingfinn Jul 2020 8:33am, 31 Jul 2020 2,038 posts	Quote Pin flyingfinn Mwis forecast looks OK, maybe warmer than ideal (16 deg on the tops but with a good breeze). Leg 3 over the Moelwyns could be uncomfortable though this afternoon.
