Training Log Archive: salal

Took metro out to Grorud, ran up to Movatn on small trails and a bit of terrain (on orienteering maps Thomas had printed out). Stopped at Sinober hytte for a snack a bit before getting to Movatn. Then ran back the usual way over Barlingåsen. Started out colder / wetter, but then it got sunny and warm.

Longer warm up, checking out the beginning / end of the course. Shorter warm down, washing off our legs / shoes in songsvann.

Terrain race - fell forward on my knee around 3k and and had to stop / hobble for a bit... then eventually got more back up to speed and passed the people that passed me at that point. Generally slowly passed people after the start... where everyone went off really fast. Easiest for me to pass on the downhills, and somewhat in the terrain.
Knee now has a bit of a puffy lump below the kneecap on the inner side - have iced it once, should probably do it again.

Chose wrong route choice in both long legs

Long run with Cristina, Lone, and Siri. Had tried to plan it with norges kart and some orienteering maps... but we got a bit off track before getting on the orienteering map, so went more on some gravel trails around a lake I had not meant to go around. Also, hadn't really planned the end and we took a small trail hoping to cut down to the road below grefsen, but it took us back along / up to the lookout then down to akebakken - so a bit longer than we meant ;).
Not sure the others were so impressed with my chose route, which proved to be quite up / down (albeit fairly straight back from romsås where we had taken the metro).
