Better than yesterday but still not great. Messed up on 2,3,5,6 but just felt really light headed so couldn’t concentrate very well the whole way. So dead running wise as was running on empty so not very fun.

Had felt so nervous all day and struggled to eat but felt fine at the start. #1 spiked and then took a risky route to 2, messed it up and wandered around. Found 3, back to 2, saw scarlet, panicked!!, found 3 again. Then messsd up 4 as i felt really shaky and just did such a poor route. Got so lost and just couldn’t relocate and my head just wasn’t in it anymore. Felt so sick (like northern champs again) and just sacked it off. Don’t think anyone could hate themselves more than i hate myself right now! Really annoyed but we go again tomorrow and try and forget about this. But the question is: is it possible to be a worse orienteer than me? Nope!

Mostly did okay was just going really easy to protect my knee, messed up 11 but figured it out off the small hill and other than that i was pretty good. Feeling pretty tired and run down though, idk why.

nav decent but slipped up on 10 & 11. Drifted right on 10 but was fine until i had bad picture in/around the circle and binned a lot here. Then 11 walked right past the control (party hat!!) and did a lot of wandering around like ‘swear it’s meant to be here somewhere...’ then was about to give up and just go to 12, walked back past where i’d been, found it in the tree! Oops!

shoes: Inov8 Oroc 280
blew #1 (3mins loss) as i wasn’t concentrating or “in the zone” so wasn’t surprised to muck it up, also got distracted by dad. Looking at GPS I was going in the perfect direction & then got drawn off...oops! Other than that really pleased as I orienteered pretty well and my knee only hurt at one point (steep downhill).

(sick)
stretching & rolling 15:00 [0]
-she thinks the problems are stemming from an imbalance in strength in my glutes/hamstrings which causes me to move outwards rather than go forwards in my hip when I run which causes problems further down my leg.
-my feet pronating doesn't help as I rock inwards when squatting so been shown how to tape my feet to stabilise this
-also been told to continue to train and race and just manage the pain as it would take too long to recover completely and I'd be out the whole season and there's no point in stopping completely as I can manage it as its not too bad of a problem
-before I run need to stretch loads (glutes, hamstrings, ITB) and also heat my leg and tape knee
-after run stretch, heat and roll
-been given strengthening exercises to do as well as stretches to recover as much as possible and make the pain as less as it is going to be
Overall just a case of coping through the season so its going to be recovery, flaring it up, recovering, flaring it up again until it gets used to that.
