Note
(injured) (rest day)

Skipped all races on the weekend, which I'm obviously cut about. Sharp pain in shin when walking (very localized pain, right in the middle of tibia) so don't think running would do any favours, plus I'm getting very suss that this is more than just a muscular injury....
Plan to have a bone scan/MRI when I get home

Did pretty much nothing all day :)
Sorry to everyone who reads my log but more whinging about my shin is in order (for my record): v sore today, sharp pain when walking. Hmmmmmmmmmf
Feel better when I think about the situation poor Josh is in though :( :( :(

orienteering 55:00 [4]

Event at cascades. I looooooove cascades, it's prob my favourite map in aus, so was super pumped to be able to do a race here.
Shin not feeling good so dropped out of 8km to 6.5km but even on the way to number one I was in a lot of pain so cut it a little short (prob ended up 5km?). May have been foolish to run at all considering how bad tib ant was, but really really wanted to get out.

Starting to find it hard to be positive - getting so frustrated. Need to force myself to have 2 weeks no running. Hope this shin pain isn't a stress fracture.........

running warm up/down 10:00 [3]

Hardly did any warm up and no warm down haha

orienteering race 56:00 [5]

Last day of Easter, on a really cool map today!
Started ok, caught Lauren at 5 or whatever the end of the long leg was and she totally threw me. She must have been standing so close to the control but didn't see it, so I thought it wasn't down there and looked around some more boulders. Lost a couple of mins.
Afew controls later Vanessa and ilka caught us and we all made a big mistake (no8??). Annoyed at myself cuz I knew I should have done my own thing but decided the others would know where they were going. Lost quite a bit of time there.
The rest were good - just really slow in terms of running speed. Feel so unfit and shin hurty :(
Need to learn to ignore others around me and trust my own navigation!

Really dissapointed in my results this Easter, hard to put my shin injury and consequent lack of fitness out of my mind. but feeling positive that I've still navigated well to most controls so should be getting back into it when my shin comes right.
