orienteering 40:40 [3] 4.6 km (8:50 / km)
shoes: jalas flx 2009

much better run today. still feeling flat and completly exhausted at the end of the race trying to beat the austrian girl in the finish chute. Ran so hard that i a panic attack stress thingy and couldnt breath at the end so they rushed me off the the first aid tent. but im fine, just a bit sick and tired from things in general.
nice to finish a pretty bad orienteering week on a high.

orienteering 33:40 [3]

middle qual.

pretty much worst day ever. I felt fine mentally , physically i felt tired. i didnt even feel like warming up alot because i wanted to conserve energy for the race. thats how i felt.
Ever since that stupid week in and out of hospital 3 weeks ago ive been getting progressivly tired and that has shown this week. In all three races i have analysed that even if i didnt do any of my mistakes i wouldnt have even made it anywhere near the top 20.
Definatley wouldnt have qualified yesterday even with my mistake at 7. so flat and not happy. felt fit a month ago while still in italy then boom illness to the max
glandular fever sucks

orienteering race (jwoc long) 1:19:20 [3] 5.7 km (13:55 / km)

ahhhhhhh!!!
Today was epic. first of all i started during a thunder storm. As soon as i took my control descriptions there was this massive streak across the sky and then BOOOM! scared me and the start people no end.
The worst control i have ever seen, basically no attackpoint. no. 4 the one everyone stuffed up. It was a downward hill leg. you had the option to count the creeks as you went ( but because of the rain there were 10 more then suppose to be). you could count the spurs but they were really hard to identify, or you could run down to a track....but because of the trracking and mud the track was so incredibly hard to find. In the end i found a track somehow didnt know if it was right and then stuffed up into control circle. WAH..... i got back and was like..well that was fun.. wtf just happened.
OH well i had fun
