Orienteering 45:41 [3] 5.95 km (7:41 / km)
shoes: VJ Irock

3 runs in a row! Big struggle to keep moving today. Again no real problems, a few poor route choices but really the biggest problem was just legs and lungs.
10 AM

Orienteering 45:41 [3] 5.92 km (7:43 / km) +102m 7:06 / km

Orienteering 18:38 [3] 3.15 km (5:55 / km)
shoes: VJ Irock

Pretty easy sprint around a nice park. Got waylaid by another control on way to 1. All pretty good from there, maybe the other option 10-11 would have been better but that is about the only improvement possible apart from getting fit.. Chased down Geoff Peel and Alitia to the last C troll, I think that earned me an extra place.

Orienteering 18:42 [3] 3.0 km (6:14 / km)

Second sprint of the day and I really struggled at times. Also compounded by a few mistakes - 2 and 16 probably the worst. Impossible to read the map at times - even at home with good glasses and a magnifier I only just managed to make out detail.

Orienteering 53:00 [3] 5.5 km (9:38 / km)
shoes: VJ Irock

Newcastle event at Barnsley as we had rayed in Maitland last night. Rose than last week on a really interesting course. Unfit on top of scare brain. Hoping to start getting brain back on track this week.

Various exercise (/scootering) 46:54 [3] 4.69 km (10:00 / km) +8m 9:55 / km

Around Maitland Park - massive stack for Aoife near beginning so ended up just Nadine and I for 1 lap and b myself for the second. A bit sad seeing only 1 hockey game in progress (used to be heaps each Saturday afternoon when I played). Now just 1 astro pitch and all the others left unused. Netball was obviously in full swing though. Good to see.

Orienteering 58:00 [3] 6.97 km (8:19 / km)
shoes: VJ Irock

Long hard course at Soapy Flat, not my finest hour - having trouble reading map - as per usual. Managed to lead Andy astray a few times between 4 and 8. Did some good legs. Beautiful sunny day out, better than packing boxes at home.

Ski (Cross country) 1:00:00 [3] 6.0 km (10:00 / km)

Some skiing with Aoife and a bit more by myself. Improving on yesterday, can now kind of snow plough and turn. Nothing like the xc racers we saw tearing around the course this morning, they were impressive!

Ski (Ski-o) 1:04:00 [3] 6.4 km (10:00 / km)

Started ok but really struggled on the ups. Probably made a few poor route choices, especially given my lack of uphill or downhill competence. In hindsight chose wrongly for 2-3 and 4-5 at least. Great fun though and happy we made the effort to go. Drive home was a bit too long.

Finished 28 min behind winner and longer time than those doing long course!

Ski (Cross country) 1:30:00 [3] 7.0 km (12:51 / km)

I have wanted to try cross country skiing for a very long time and finally got my chance. Not as bad as I could have been but took quite a few falls today. Have fallen down the family pecking order for skiing competence... Hope to make it around the ski o course tomorrow.
12 PM

Orienteering 1:05:34 [3] 3.21 km (20:26 / km) +45m 19:06 / km
