Orienteering 37:34 [3]
State League #8
Not too bad of a run but i was a bit off the pace. Think i lost most of my time on the long leg wasting time trying to go straight when I ended up drifting out to the track anyway, and on number 8 going around the rocks. Seems i might tend to slow down in the middle of the course too much maybe... Was relatively happy with how i was running at other times in the course though, and my compassing wasn't too off to get to all the termite mounds :)

Orienteering 1:12:59 [3] 6.45 km (11:19 / km) +180m 9:56 / km
State League #7
Didn't go too badly apart from losing about 6 minutes on number 6. I wasted a heap of time trying to work out which of the tiny bike tracks i was and then i was too far past the control circle around other cliffs for a bit too. Other than that i just lost some time going through green when i could've gone around, but it was a bit hard to work out anyway because of how different it all seemed. Was happy with how i felt running on the tracks for the long leg though so thats nice :)

Orienteering (Sprint) 16:21 [3] 2.7 km (6:03 / km)
State League #6
Pretty happy with my run! I felt better from number 2 onwards, i realised i wasn't making good enough plans so improved on that. Plus i was more conscious of my speed so i tried to push it a bit more. Twas a pretty fun map! Minus the angry cow at the start that sounded like a lion when it moo'd.

Running 25:00 [3]
Easy 20 minute-ish run and then 4 x 20second surges. Kinda hard to leave the house when mum was in her pyjamas and had a cuppa when i was leaving...

Running 43:00 [3]
Fairly hard run around ashtonfield streets, and some on tracks. Put some nice hills in there too so my legs felt pretty jelly when i finished. I could feel my legs were kinda sore from yesterday too, a good stretch session is in order!

Running warm up/down 15:00 [3]
About 10 min warm up and 5 down, the people who had access to the lights wanted to turn them off to leave. I thought they were just automatic and thought it was super convenient to run that late in light, so it's a shame they mightn't always be on. It gets a bit dark and scary at the oval sometimes...
Running intervals 20:00 [3]
200m, 400m, 600m, 400m, 200m with 400m jog recovery between each. Super hard to get going faster again after the 400m jogs, it was so much easier and nicer aha. A good tough session. I was worried that i'd feel a bit stuffed up in the head, but i didnt really notice it, maybe the training did me good!

Note
(rest day)
Switched thursday's rest day with today, i felt a bit like a cold was coming on. I think it's all just from being busy and tired from a heap of school work and all that... Two major projects was perhaps not the brightest idea, and everything seems to be due at once! I can't wait for them to be finished and handed in, ahhhhhhh, it will be the biggest relief.
