Running warm up/down 5:00 [1] 0.5 km (10:00 / km)
shoes: VJ Supra stud

Orienteering race (night-o) 48:12 [5] *** 5.5 km (8:46 / km)
spiked:8/10c shoes: VJ Supra stud

Yökuppi autumn season starter.

I know I'm in a bad shape so I expected more like my brother's position. But running felt pretty good and the controls kept on coming straight at me. I even had the guts to go straight to #2 and nailed it. I was already pleased with my performance at that point.
I realised #5 would be tough one so I took the middle part really carefully. It was pretty thick here and there and I had to check and correct my bearing maybe over 20 times. Found the end of the trail and the rest was easy. Made only real mistake to #6. I really don't know how it happened since I actually ran further the path than I supposed to, checked bearing many times and still found myself from the depression south from the correct one. After some wandering found the cp and also Assu and Hämis. Couple of legs behind them and the ends easy bits again on my own.

Orienteering long 2:02:00 [2] *** 11.1 km (10:59 / km)
spiked:9/11c shoes: VJ Supra stud

Weekly evening event at Korpihoilo. Maybe one of my favourite LS-37 terrains.
Pexi did a PR-stunt yesterday by turning up to football field. He sold me the idea of going to the long "skilled-course" and I took it.

I started pretty slowly, took the middle part slow and finished slowly. But I'm still happy. Lost 3min/km to Assu who ran it 99% pace but the general feeling was so much better than it has been for weeks that can't complain. One mistake at the end cause I got just mentally tired and one route choice mistake on the long leg. But I blame deer keds for this. I picked/killed maybe 30 of them while making the plan for the leg. Found still one from my hair the next morning.

Still a bit sick but could play the whole time. Had to go for a goalie for a while though. Juha Tuomi would have a thing or two to learn from me. Spot on goal kicks.

Yet another "test-run". This time I could run the whole time so getting better.

Thought there can't be too much of sports to be followed but this day was almost too much: Youth Jukola, WOC relays and FC Lahti game via internet and TV.

(sick)

District champs, relay.

If there would've been a replacement, I wouldn't have started. Even the walking from the car to the cc got me out of breath. And to top it off, I forgot my shoes home. Fortunately me and Tuxi spotted some nice pair of canoes on top of finish-tent and went to inquire would those like a nice little jog out in the woods. They did.

Nothing much to say about the performance itself. Small mistakes and walking in every uphill.

Worst ever homebound travel... First flight to Schiphol so late that we spend half a nigth at Amsterdam. This combined to my general shape, I didn't particularly enjoy it.

At elast got one nice shot out of the week:

Throat got bad few days after landing Germany. Then today it turned to fever.

Got stung by a teeny tiny German wasp. Not sure is the fever related to this, cause my leg got pretty swollen from knee down and stayed swollen 'til wednesday.

LS-37 session at Heinsuo.

Since I've been training so hard lately, it's good to "rest" for a week in Germany.
