Orienteering 2:24:24 [4] 18.63 km (7:45 / km) +542m 6:46 / km
ahr:166 max:182
Easter day 2 long. 16.1km course.
Got a blister from my ankle brace yesterday and it was quite sore going to the start, so I was preparedto be in pain for the whole race and was. This slowed me down a bit until I got stuffed and that took over as the reason for going slow. Made a couple of stupid mistakes early not reading the map properly, then just plodded along. Wanted to give up at the spectator control, but wasnt too much further, so kept going. Happy with my bearings today, most were spot on, so saved a bit of time there.
Most likely the last time I run a 16km course, my days of running elites are just about over.

Orienteering race 55:50 [4] 6.7 km (8:20 / km) +300m 6:49 / km
Easter day 1. Felt ok at the start and didnt feel my calf for the race, but couldnt run up hills. Pretty good for the first half, but tired after the spectator and made silly mistakes not thinking properly.9

Event: 2015 Australian Three Days
12 PM
Orienteering race 20:33 [5] 4.2 km (4:54 / km)
shoes: Adidas Adizero Pro
Easter prologue. Calf was a bit sore which slowed me down a little. Fairly clean through the street/park section, until the school where I lost time on a few not reading the map properly.
Found out afterwards that I ran through olive green from 8-9 :( I dont remember actually reading the map for this leg, just knew I had to turn left and did.

Morialta. Easy run before easter. Right calf was very sore, especially on the uphills. Feels like it needs lots of stretching, except my ankle wont let me. I hope it feels better in the next couple of days.

Running 29:00 [3] 4.79 km (6:03 / km)
ahr:164 max:179
South from Pt Rickaby along the beach and in the sand dunes looking at the possibility of an O map.
Dunes look pretty good, definitely technical enough for a map, but the strip is narrow, only about 350m wide. Probably only enough there for a sprint, unless you can get access further down and have a middle with start at one end and finish the other end.
Legs a bit stiff this morning, right calf very tight at the end.
