Easy run in Ballarat (working from Ballarat this week). Feeling much better than yesterday, my immune system must be a BOSS

running 20:00 [3]
(sick)
Tiny morning jog to go look at the car burning at the top of our driveway (thanks to some bogans) ....and then felt quite under the weather for the rest of the day so I've decided to finally accept that I'm sick/getting sick and need some rest - really hope it's short-lived!

running 20:00 [3]
Morning yogg. Felt quite ok
12 PM
orienteering race 1:03:00 [5]
Sprint in Castlemaine plus warm up and down. Still feeling a bit mentally exhausted but managed ok today. Also I actually won the race - everyone else went through an uncrossable fence when in fact I went a (very long) way around it. Cost me about 1.5mins! So I am the winner ;)

riding 30:00 [3]
Ride home from uni. Was starting to get seriously annoyed at the weather in Ballarat/Melbourne but actually it turned really nice this arvo! Now if it'd just stay warm, that'd be great
Strength and Conditioning 20:00 [3]
Big rolling session. A bit too tired to do gym or a run. Also my knee is sore
Sunday Oct 23, 2016 #
running 20:00 [3]
Tiny morning run so I would feel a bit better this arvo
running tempo 1:34:00 [5]
3x15min tempo. Moving this session up a notch by doing it on hilly tracks, rather than on the flat bike path in Melb. So we ran on the goldfields track from...somewhere... to Castlemaine. It was nice! Took a little while to get going. Pretty smoked after.

orienteering race 1:00:00 [5]
Warm up, sprint into spring course 1, 5min jog, sprint into spring course 2, warm down. Skimped on the warm up and down a bit today because the weather was really quite bad. Ran ok in the "race", took a couple of bad route choices....about a minute behind the fasties so need to get.....faster!!

To/from uni
running intervals 1:12:45 [5]
Ints up the river in the daylight! It's a whole new experience. Except I think I prefer doing them in the dark actually because then I feel faster haha. Anyway today I felt extremely bleh and had a bad stitch.
Strength and Conditioning 10:00 [3]
Rolling. Logging it so then I might actually do it regularly...

Short morning run. It rained. Hoped to do more after uni but had a long day organising + presenting at a student conference so I was too exhausted when I got home

riding 30:00 [3]
Ride home. A bit chaotic today, and I almost got squashed by a truck which was pretty scary
running 30:00 [3]
Easy run. Felt good and this run would have been really nice if I didn't have a million mosquito bites!! My legs got completely raped by mosquitos in Ballarat yesterday and the bites were soooo sooo itchy on this run and it was really unpleasant.
Strength and Conditioning 45:00 [3]
Gym. Gonna be sore tomorrow I think!
Sunday Oct 16, 2016 #
running 20:00 [3]
Tiny morning shuffle
orienteering 1:39:11 [4]
Oing at petticoat with a small group. Did a warm up putting tapes out and then ran the Aus middle course from last year with Tash. We ran moderately hard (or it was moderately hard for me at least haha) and compared some different route choices. i probably should have done a bit more after this, but guess I don't want to overload myself too quickly ;)
Saturday Oct 15, 2016 #
running 20:00 [3]
Easy morning run, trying to make my legs feel less shit for the sprint into spring race....

running warm up/down 20:00 [3]
orienteering race 43:40 [5]
What a shitter. Blew away at least 5mins, mostly all on one control. :( pretty annoyed but I guess I shouldn't be too upset since my other three races weren't terrible.
Saturday Oct 1, 2016 #
running warm up/down 15:00 [3]
Minimal warm up and down
orienteering race 1:18:30 [5]
Aus long. Bad start - dropped 2min at number 1! I think I started talking myself out of it yesterday - I really need to keep working on feeling confident and using positive self talk before races. Anyway, recovered ok after no1 and the next half of the race was only ok - a few more 1min errors and one mid-leg wander. Then ~2/3 of the way through Tash and Jo caught me and we were together until the end. Legs weren't feeling great today (too nervous beforehand I think) so I kept thinking I'd let Tash/Jo go but then I'd catch them again/manage to hang on. Happy with the result but oh my god I don't think I can find 9mins on Jo!!
