orienteering race 44:00 [5]
Oh. Dear. I don't think it was even really that hot at 9:20 or whenever I started, but my legs and brain were just completely cooked. Felt like ass running and accidentally deviated from my correct control to punch a different control......soooo I've done another mp !!!!!

Easy run to centennial park again. Felt ok, but it was a sweat fest again. Man, I can't hack NSW weather haha

running intervals 1:00:00 [4]
Some 200s with lots of recovery in ....centennial park (?). It was humid as (or something) because I was sweating buckets. Better do some quick acclimatising :/

running 30:00 [3]
Easy run before driving to Sydney. Legs felt horrendous at the start, probably partly because I did zilch yesterday but also maybe because it was kind of early (though since NZ I keep waking up at 4am!! Bleugh)
Friday Dec 23, 2016 #
Note
(rest day)
Had the laziest day ever, which was actually a really bad idea because I felt like a massive slug and probably would have got better recovery by doing a run!

running intervals 1:17:47 [5]
30, 3, 4 session. Felt better than I expected but not super sprightly, so started "comfortable" and then tried to finish hard. Ended up not being a killer session but I think that's probably good! Need to make sure I'm recovered from NZ / ready to go again for Xmas 5 day + falls ck

running intervals 1:16:10 [5]
6x5x40/20s. Felt pretty good - had that feeling you get after a week of races (or a training camp!). Got overtaken by a woman during one of my recoveries - but it turned out to be Lisa Weightman, so I think that's ok ;) Dead at the end

(rest day)
Back in Melb after a crap night of sleep and getting up at 2am (Aus time) to fly home.....super unenthused to go back to uni again!! :(
Also, after looking at winsplits of camp champs I realised the start of most of my races is always bad - probably from nerves I guess? Anyway so that will be my focus for Xmas 5 day, nailing the start (in a not-overly cautious way)

orienteering 40:00 [5]
Final day relay!! A bit tired and the forest wasn't super fast. I navigated ok. Really fun training camp with some really good training! Feeling a bit more confident in my abilities
Friday Dec 16, 2016 #
orienteering race 1:05:00 [5]
Camp champs plus warm up and down. Actual race was 30:34
Had an ok run, made a lot of small mistakes actually - maybe lost 1.5mins total. Sloppy start especially, then got into it. Not sure why I made so many small mistakes, kept stopping a bit early so maybe need to be confident in my direction and keep going

Party hat relay straight after camp champs. I was so hungry and thirsty, so this was brutal and I suffered

"Sprint"
Thursday Dec 15, 2016 #
orienteering 1:17:46 [4]
Compass exercise and then a course which we were meant to do in pairs but I decided to do by myself - just because I thought I would get more out of it focusing on "the process". It was pretty good, I pushed sorta moderately hard and made a couple of mistakes, but was mostly happy with how I interpreted the terrain
orienteering 15:00 [3]
Contour only exercise after the other session. I was a bit tired so obly did a piss weak effort of this haha

Easy yog with gin on our "rest" day. Felt better than expected! It was nice
Tuesday Dec 13, 2016 #
orienteering 32:31 [3]
Course with a focus on exit direction. I can't remember if I went ok, I think I did
orienteering 40:49 [3]
Oranges and lemons. Getting a bit tired, but managed the long course ok. Still not navigating super well I don't think
orienteering 27:19 [3]
Map memory with Gin. I was crap, I'm always crap at map memory haha. Pretty tired physically

Corridor. I was pretty bad.
orienteering 58:32 [3]
Relocation plus a course. I was quite useless
orienteering 1:02:07 [4]
O intervals to finish off the day. I navigated ok but still don't really have any idea what's going on in the complex stuff....bleh. Not gonna lie, pretty smashed after this
Strength and Conditioning 30:00 [3]
Bridget stretching session! I am inflexible

orienteering intervals 1:00:00 [3]
O ints to start the week. I started out really badly, the terrain made no sense. Then I got better, and then I made a stupid mistake to end the session haha eurgh
orienteering 33:00 [3]
Middle course, super fun! Did well on all but two controls, which I stuffed quite badly.
orienteering 30:00 [3]
Control picking. Navigated pretty stupidly, not a wonderful day of orienteering by me haha. I did some things well though!

running intervals 1:29:50 [5]
4x30sec/1min (or maybe it was 2min, I don't remember) + 3x3min/2min + 4x4min/1min up the river. Well I did the first half much faster than I've ever done before, but then I totally crashed on the last two 4min reps and struggled to run hard at all! Oops. It was quite warm out and I felt dehydrated before I started, so that prob didn't help.
Could only stomach some ice cream for dinner :I
