Running 40:00 [3]
Garmin is wrecked beyond belief so just jogged along happily. taking a sharp right turn sends a sharp pain through my knee, so i'll avoid that. other than that all good baby

Running 45:00 [3]
Had a 1500word essay due today. i've known about it for 6 weeks so i started tuesday. as i stink at essays its taken all of my physical and metal power to do it and not just spend my time youtubing Old Spice commercials.
Had a run today for the first time it a while. If i had a running blog it'd be called 'everything always hurts' cause it does. that and the first half of the run was uphill, into a strong wind. apparently winds of 110km were clocked on the mountain, i was at water works so copped some strong gusts.
Had planned on going further but actually thought the trees would be losing banches, and i didnt fancy dodging that stuff.
Felt really average on this run, sore bones again which is not a good feeling. hopefully more running will strengthen them or something

Swimming tempo 45:00 [4] 1.5 km (30:00 / km)
Found a session on the net for improving speed over distance. 500m, 400m, 300m, 200m, 100m as fast as i could without building up too much lactic acid.
Good swim, by the time i was doing the 200 & 100 i was aching.
You can see on yesterdays splits that i fatigued around the middle of the course. I was only 2-3 min behind scar till about control 14, then i just started making small errors and eventually a big 5min error on 23 which sent me to the back of the pack. Also didnt have the speed late in the race, the 1.25k running leg showed me as 1:30 behind the best time (cal)

Orienteering race 1:29:11 [3] 9.5 km (9:23 / km)
Good course set at Pitttwater today. Had alot of fun with my first run of this lenght in a month or two. and enjoyed the orienteering. Got tired around conrol 18-24 and made a few errors that blew my time up by an extra few minutes. including control 23? that i had to re-enter 3 times to get. Good fun though. quick swim then off to work.
feet felt fine, knees a bit sore from all the sand dunes
