1th national at Waterschei, Genk. I felt tired because of the two courses on friday and saturday evening. In the beginning I really had a bad feeling. The 'terril' was very hard for me and I just wanted to finish. At the 19th control I saw Tomas Hendrickx and I was confused by thinking he already punched this control which was not the case. I lost 1'30" here. Eventually I caught him at the second time we had to climb the hill. I felt better because he could not follow on the hill. At the end I did not very bad with a third place but still 10 minutes after Fabien. Thomas VDK was second with 1h 19' 11". Next week we have our physical test so this week I will not train to intensively.

Event: German Champs Night
 

German night orienteering Championship at Duisburg rockies. It was an old manufactory which was lighted in yellow, green, red and purple. There was also a park in the surrounding and some hills. There were two non IOF symbols which were used because of controls that were at the first stage of the manufactory. The first control in this (10th of the race) I missed because I was standing below and had to run whole the way back for the stairs. It was not too difficult but I didn't ran at full speed because of the national tomorrow in Genk.

Flemish championship night orienteering at Sahara, Lommel. I started good in the technical zone and won some controls. At the sixth control I made a terrible mistake (4'30" error). I was a the wright place but could not find the control so I had to attack from different point to eventually find him. At the the seventh control I caught Jan Delobel and I made two errors (8th and 10th control). After the 12th control I haven't seen him anymore. In spite of this error I became thirth (after Thomas VDK and Christoph Bernard) and second for the championship. Everyone made terrible mistakes in this rather difficult terrain for night orienteering.

Warming up for football at the track in Arenberg park, Heverlee. I ran 8 rounds of 400m

Football in historia cup. I played with a new team. 4 people of my team I had never seen before. So the first half we already got an arrear of 0-6 but in the second half we could combine better and could make it till 3-7.

Running to De Nayer for the SLOK training. I was in a hurry to be in time, but in the end I had to wait anyway (SLOK people are not very good in time management)

SLOK training. Me and Wouter L. did the long tour. Jeroen H. and Dries VG. did the middle one.
