A wish to make a training visited me at end of work day, so couldn't resist - can't predict when next time such a wish will visit me. 1 loop in VP.

Orienteering race 38:04 [3] *** 5.11 km (7:27 / km)
ahr:171 max:190 spiked:10/15c slept:7.5 shoes: VJ Lop (New)

Unusually easy work week, so decided to visit O-Thursdays. Started faster than usually because was afraid to finish in a dusk. As ran faster, head couldn't keep the pace, so made a lot of mistakes - 5' on 5 CPs. Near 6th CP didn't understand completely vegetation drawing (1'30'' mistake) - couldn't expect before the race that author of the map was S.Kireilis...

Orienteering race 32:03 [3] *** 3.1 km (10:20 / km) +118m 8:41 / km
ahr:171 max:188 spiked:16/20c slept:7.5 shoes: VJ Lop (New)

The last O-Tuesday in Keramika. Pretty shitty forest with sprint scale (1:5000) map. Made a lot of mistakes - 3' on 4CPs (mostly because of the scale - was very unsure while running) and for the short course 32' looked too much for me. Was shocked when sunius showed the results - I was second, loosing only 4'' to Egidijus. Once more was shocked when checking final results saw, that the third person lost almost 6' to me - I don't understand what everybody else were doing in the forest. Found some pleasant splits - to 7th CP was 22'' faster than everybody else, the CP was tricky, but approached if fluently.
O-Tuesdays ended, so now will have more time for usual trainings in VP.

Orienteering race 59:39 [4] 8.22 km (7:15 / km) +90m 6:53 / km
ahr:183 max:205 spiked:21/21c slept:7.5 shoes: VJ Lop (New)

Klajunas cup, "middle" distance, V21A course. Ran very good race, made no mistakes. Near 2nd CP already caught Paulius Markovas (he started 2' before me), but he soon disappeared. To 7th CP was caught by Marius, but to 10th CP was quite tired already and couldn't keep his pace, so to 11th ran alone. Near 12th CP was caught by Vytautas Grasys, and finished the course with him.

Orienteering race 48:22 [3] 4.3 km (11:15 / km) +250m 8:43 / km
ahr:174 max:198 slept:7.5 shoes: VJ Lop (New)

O-Tuesday in Belmontas. 3'30'' mistake on 13th CP (after 12th was already tired and got afraid of the next climb so ran around, but didn't find the CP from first time) and lost precious victory. Another 1' of mistakes on three CPs elsewhere.

Cycling 1:19:51 [2] 18.88 km (14.2 kph)
slept:8.5 shoes: NASRM (bicycle)

Planned to see whole Vilnius marathon, but got up too late so didn't come to start at time. Took a loop vs runners running direction and when didn't meet leaders understood, that start was at 10, not at 12 as on almost all local orienteering events... So met the last runners. But as weather was wonderful, enjoyed the ride very much.

Avg 14,19 km/h, max 31,93 km/h.

Orienteering race 59:24 [3] *** 4.8 km (12:22 / km) +275m 9:37 / km
ahr:159 max:189 spiked:10/13c slept:9.0 shoes: VJ Lop (New)

O-Tuesday in the ugly forest - Paneriu one. 4th CP - climbing started kill me and climbed too high - 1'. 6th - after taking 5th CP and running to the path, took wrong direction, fortunately soon realized that running opposite direction - 1'. 9th CP - didn't understand path drawing - 4' near CP area. To 12th first time ever started feel faint - always become tired, but this time was different. Too much climbing I guess... But it was easier for me to climb than to make way through that ugly green forest...
Overall: 6' of mistakes, not very bad race.

Orienteering race 52:27 [4] *** 5.84 km (8:59 / km) +110m 8:12 / km
ahr:182 max:198 spiked:18/20c slept:6.5 shoes: VJ Lop (New)

Lithuania Clubs relay, second OK Azuolas team, first leg. To the 3rd CP there already was clear path trough nettles. Until 4th CP was still running with some remains of the big gang, then women course splited. To 5th - with the last elite men, but didn't check the map and at CP area thought that we need go left. 30'' for relocation, and elite men disappeared - was left with master men. Near 6th CP met MaTomas, who was "picking mushrooms". To 7th CP he quickly disappeared and I took my own pace. 10th CP - MaTomas is still picking mushrooms. To 11th I took safe route and didn't see him anymore. After public control, to 15th CP somebody catches me. 17th CP - got distracted by the same person - 45''.
Overall: ran very good race, only 1'15'' mistakes (and few not very good route choices through the green). Was very satisfied with mass start - very nice experience.

Running (late evening) 43:25 [3] 8.15 km (5:20 / km)
ahr:157 max:176 slept:9.0 shoes: Nike Air State Run

Very tired after tough work day so decided to cool the head a little bit. Achieved quite good pace from beginning but in the middle of the distance felt pain in the chest so had to slow down.
