Event: Julimar
 
10 AM

Orienteering 53:11 [4] *** 7.1 km (7:29 / km) +300m 6:11 / km
shoes: Inov-8 X-Talon 212

H2 at Julimar.
Not very focussed but still an ok run technically, don't remember any mistakes. Heart started to play up heading towards 3 but wasn't too bad until I hit the climb after crossing the creek coming into 8. Had to walk a lot after that. Not as much fun as I thought it would be, definitely not the julimar I remember.
Ben got me by 1:40.
11 AM

Orienteering 22:57 intensity: (7:00 @2) + (7:57 @3) + (8:00 @5) *** 2.5 km (9:11 / km) +100m 7:39 / km
shoes: Inov-8 X-Talon 212

Julimar Sprint.
Started 1min before Ben so pushed hard out of the start. Almost made it to 5 before my heart packed it in and still had a 13 second lead on Ben at 7 but that is about where my race ended. Tried to aim off a little to the left on 8 and thought I came out pretty close but couldn't see it. Ran around like a headless chook for a few minutes before finding it well left of where I came out. Later decided it must have been on the other rocky spur about 100m to the SW. Heart was feeling pretty bad at this stage so walked up the hill to 9 then rolled my ankle at 9 so walked to 10 and jogged the rest.

Running 40:29 intensity: (20:29 @2) + (20:00 @3)

Feeling even more stiff, tired and old this morning after a very interrupted night's sleep but I did eventually manage to drag myself out. Quads a bit sore but otherwise didn't feel as bad as expected.

Running 41:00 intensity: (16:00 @2) + (25:00 @4)
shoes: Adizero Boston

Couldn't drag my stiff tired old body out of bed early in the morning so I did Rachel's session of 3x2k (90s rest) at Yokine Reserve with her instead.
Feeling ok by the end of the 14:30 warm up but my quads were a bit sore in places doing drills.
Made it about 400m into the first effort before my heart was set off by overtaking a pair of dogs that were fighting. Rest of the session felt easy in the legs but uncomfortable in the chest. Supposed to be doing 8:30 but we did them all in 8:20 despite my efforts to slow Rachel down.
Just walked back to the car as a warm down.
