NOL long
This was so fun! I love boboyan, plus it was a beautiful day :)
Had an alright run....made a few mistakes and had too many hesitations, and was being a bit of a pansy through the bush with lots of fallen timber - found it hard to run in parts! However I am satisfied with this, as it was really fun and I feel like I am maybe starting to remember how to orienteer well again. :)
NOL sprint (can't remember exact time)
Had an alright run, though the whole time I was thinking "jeez I'm going slowly" - not so much physically slowly but just mentally I wasn't rushing or being aggressive at all, and was really taking my time to make route choice decisions. Don't know why I wasn't really racing properly?? Maybe I've forgotten how....anyway, it was fun!

NOL middle
Not a great run - made quite a lot of ~1min mistakes, just being scrappy in the circle and not keeping contact well enough. On the plus side I felt reasonable running!
Another unintentional rest day...woops. My excuse today is that I had the first of a series of 6 hr pracs (followed by another 2hr lab for anatomy) which totally killed me. Atleast I learned that I DO NOT want to work in a lab when I graduate haha.
Didn't intend on having a rest day but when I thought about going for a run after uni I realised I was just so exhausted!! Haven't eaten meat in more than a month (woops) so maybe iron levels are low...
Arrows ints at north adelaide. Had a really shitty, stressful day and so of course I was also feeling crap running too....the others all did a 3km time trial but i just did mona fartlek, skipping the float recoveries (i made them normal (slow) recovery speed) and not busting my gut during the efforts. According to my garmin I was faster today than I was 4 weeks ago when I did mona fartlek....i sure felt slower though!
