Orienteering race 45:33 [4] 6.0 km (7:36 / km) +240m 6:20 / km

Aus Relays. 3rd leg, with Rachel 1st and Laurina 2nd. Still felt pretty flat after yesterday, and was kinda hoping for a bit of a race in the end to get a bit more motivated, but went out in a pretty safe 3rd, decent gap to kathryn and shannon who went out in the lead, but safe margin to vanessa. had a clean run, and tried to run hard, but really didn't have the legs to run properly hard. ok area, but didn't think it was that much better than the stuff in the barossa that it was worth the extra drive. would have been quite happy to have the relay in the same area as aus long. would have loved another run around there!

Running warm up/down 15:00 [3]

warm up. no warm down.

Orienteering race 1:20:58 [5] 10.6 km (7:38 / km) +360m 6:32 / km

Aus Long distance champs - good run, but not great. had a bit of a scare on 2, which should have been an easy control, but managed to overshoot up the hill. got my head into gear a bit more after that, and actually started reading the map properly instead of hoping that running in the right direction would get me there... which backfired a little on the run into 5 when I rolled my ankle quite badly. had to stop for a little while, and had a bit of a moment, but steadily ran it out. never really comfortable running in the rough stuff after that.
ran a few controls with Lauren, including the danger leg down to 6 - very happy to get that cleanly, but really struggled on the long running section in the middle of the course. hestitated and lost about 30secs on 16, but then got the last technical loop ok. again lost a fair bit of time on the slog back home.
pretty happy with how I finished up. there was nothing I could have done about the 6mins to kathryn, but there was a big bunch just behind and a few more little mistakes would have made a big difference.

Note

spent 5 hrs in adelaide airport waiting for a flight home. nearly didn't get that either in the end as they only just got us out before curfew. got home at 2.30am... so not particularly functional today. feel like I have a hangover, despite no alcohol. fail.

Gym 40:00 [3]

light gym session and lots of stretching.
