Orienteering (Aust. Schools Ind. Champs) 48:33 [3] 4.4 km (11:02 / km)
mmmm, was disappointed with my run but when i got back i was happy that i was in the top ten for my first year in Junior Girls. Number 1 was good but controls 2 through to 6 were pretty ordinary. Control 2 and 5 were the worst but the others weren't so good. Anyway, i get encouragement from this : )

Orienteering race (Queensland Champs) 30:00 [4] 2.9 km (10:21 / km)
Had a good run again today. Messed around a little bit with one of the controls, i think it was that i got put off by the gun person that i could see but i tried to forget that and didn't see anyone for the rest of my course which was good. Happy once again : )

cycling (With Joshwa) 52:19 [3] 9.65 km (5:25 / km)
Josh took me for a bike ride. We went on streets to a really quiet street where he taught me heaps and got me more confident (i took my hands of the handle bar :D) and then we went into dirt tracks where he taught me more. I am pretty sure i failed at going up every little sudden hill when we were on the dirt,, lol I really enjoyed it : )

Orienteering race (NSW Long Distance Champs) 56:19 [3] 2.9 km (19:25 / km) +70m 17:20 / km
mmmmm, well not such a good run today. There were a few legs where i didn't do too bad only most of them were fairly ordinary. I think my route choices were good for them only they just sort of failed which wasn't a great thing to happen. anyway, hopefully this means my bad run is out of the way and i will have good runs at Queensland : )
Warm up/down warm up/down (Only a warm up) 5:00 [2]
I did a run to the start and then realised i had a little bit extra time so i decided to run down the track and back to the start again. Didn't do a warm down though :$

Orienteering intervals (Bush intervals) 48:31 [4] 5.5 km (8:49 / km)
We went to a map to do some bush intervals. There were four loops and i did them all! : ) hehe.
Times were:
A: 12.16 - 1.2/ I had a bit of trouble on the first control
B: 10.38 - 1.3/ Liked this one. Went good only i was a bit cautious on one
C: 12.27 - 1.7/ Liked this one too. Did make any errors : )
D: 13.10 - 1.3/ All was going well until the last one because i spent like 5minutes looking for the actual flag because it was so dull lol
Really enjoyed the whole thing. Wish we cold do it more often.

Warm up/down warm up/down 25:00 [2]
Dunno about the time here but we ran about 10minutes to the start dad had set up and then for a warm down i went around one of the courses to collect the controls : )

Running (Run around ashtonfield) 27:55 [3]
Mum drew me a little loop on one of the Ashtonfield street-o maps and i read the map while we both ran around it. Was heaps of fun and i think i ran better than i have when i just go for normal runs. Thats probably because i am not thinking about how much my legs are hurting and i am thinking about the map and stuff. I really liked it and i think i will do that more often maybe : )
Stretching (After my run) 10:00 [1]
Did a stretch with Josh when i got back. Felt good to actually stretch.
It's wierd because i can't do the shakey leg stretch on my left leg because it hurts just like my bum used to hurt : ( but atleast it is only when doing that stretch.
Oh and the front of my legs don't hurt as much now. I haven't sprinted but i can't feel it hurting when i go for a normal run anymore so that is good. I think it is because i have been stretching before i fall asleep : )

Gym (Cardio Camp Class) 45:00 [3]
Was hoping that it wasn't going to be the same lady that took it as last week but unfortunately it was and once again it wasn't a very good class: (
I used to really like these classes but it really is pointless now.
We just did like a circut thing and it had heaps of weights and push-ups and we did boxing too which hurt my poor nuckles,,, lol.
Anywaym i was glad i did something even though it wasn't too good : )

cycling (Around the streets) 44:54 [3]
Have been wanting to go for abike ride for ages but because of the rain i haven't, only today it wasn't raining. So thats just what i did.
Was riding on Josh's old bike so was sort of testing it too. I will need to move the seat up a bit i think but other then that it was pretty good.
I had such a good time, think i will make this a weekly thing : )

Orienteering race ("Darks Common") 32:47 [3]
Not sure if this is the right time and i don't know what the distance was but anyway.
Was kinda happy with my run. Was a bit slowish in some spots and i made a silly silly route choice on one of them. Also got a bit tired towards the end which wasn't good. Took track options mostly because i heard from heaps of people before i went that it was heaps thick.
I was glad we went today because of how lazy i have been lately. I will be changing that!! but ya, was a good fun day. And HAPPY DADS DAY DADS!!!! : )

Gym (Cardio Camp class) 45:00 [3]
Was a pretty pathetic class tonight. The lady that took it didn't seem very organised and yea, it just wasn't a very good class. I am glad i went to the gym and did something but was expecting it would be a better class but anyway : )
