15x1min, 1min rest with Ola around the 8

Felt pretty good. Stuck right with him for the first half. Got a bit behind on the downhills in the end though, and on the last few where we emptied the tank.

Training at Rannebergen.

Headed into the woods a ways to get changed and stash our bags. Had planned on starting from a certain hill but we had to change that idea. Moments after noticing a few large ant hills, Eric, wearing sandals, had a ton of ants biting his bare feet. Soon after I had a bunch crawling on my shoes. It seemed the whole hill was infested with these red ants!



We quickly ran over to the next hill in search of refuge, but the ants were everywhere there as well. I guess they like the dry pine forest. Out of desperation we jumped onto two large adjacent boulders. There were still ants up there, but far fewer than down below. Despite having to perilously keep our balance while swatting away the ants, we might have managed a new o-gear changing record.

After that whole debacle, we were able to set off on our training and enjoy the beautiful Rannebergen forest.

We decided to find a nicer place to get changed afterwords, and settled on this spot by the lake, where we were able to go for a quick dip.

1:15 training on Getryggen.

Took it fairly easy. Loved running through the southern area and the marshes in the pouring rain. Hip/groin started to get sore halfway through so cut things a bit short and jogged slowly home.

GMOK intervals, 8 x 3min

Not an official training night, so there was just a few guys running tonight.

Managed to stay with the fast guys for the most part. Started to slip back a bit by the end on the hillier trails where they would get ahead on the downhills.

Fun and super nice weather.

GMOK vs IFK football game.

Thought it was going to just be a friendly little game, but it turned out to be a lot more serious than I thought.

Its been a long time since I've played on a full field, so it took a bit to get used to. Was quite shaky at first but got better as the game went on. Played defense for most of it but ran up a fair bit and had a few good chances. Nice not having any expectations as a Canadian player.

We ended up winning 6-5. :) I am so sore now though....

Long leg o-terval session with Hugh. Alternated first starts with a 1.5min gap.

Really fun and tough session. Started off a bit sloppy, but got into the 1:15 scale and the map really well by the third. Legs a bit heavy, but was moving pretty well.

Intervals with GMOK.

Quite tired all day so wasn't sure how it would go.

3x3min, 4x2min, 5x1min

Started out quite slow on the first one, but then started to feel better throughout. Was quite good on the 2mins.

Fell behind on the first few 1mins. Didn't feel like I had so much power. Then gave it all on the last two. Was fun :)

Jukola test at Hisingsparken.

Started at 11!

Could not make sense of the trails at all. Not sure if it was me, the map, or because of the dark but most of my mistakes were because of the trails.
One big mistake on the long leg, and other small mistakes.

Fun to strap on the headlamp again.

DM Sprint

Ok Race, lots of small mistakes, 5s here and there. Not sure of my route to 9, would have been better going straight.

Stomach wasn't so great tonight, which got to me a bit on the long legs in the last half.

Ended up in 6th, which is ok, but was hoping for better.

Jukola Training at Rambomosse.

Quite satisfied with this apart from the end. Legs were quite tired from the day before, and I got really tired towards the end which contributed to the bad legs. Less than a minute total of error though. The rest was all bad routechoice.

Started out quite easy on the road run. Lost track of things a bit on the long leg to 2, but I still feel it was a pretty good leg. Was really surprised to see Mikael right behind me at 2, having made up 2min. Pushed hard to stay ahead of him and I ran really well until 9. Lost only around 2min to Micke and Ola through that section.

Got quite tired after that though and took bad routes to 11 and 12, losing 6 minutes! A lot of positives though and would have been better had I been more in race mode.
