Running warm up/down 25:00 [3]
15 min warm up, 10 warm down.
Orienteering 38:18 [3]
Middle distance training at Brush Creek set by Josh. I forgot about having to worry about rolling an ankle for at least the first half of the course and it was sooooo so great not thinking about that until i rolled one a little! Think i navigated pretty alright after going a little wide on number 3. Super nice running in the burnt areas!

cycling (Cycle class at the gym) 45:00 [3]
Not the greatest class I've ever been to, but training in the morning is always better so it's good to have it done. My scratches from yesterday haven't pulled up great though, still stinging quite a bit!

Park Orienteering 33:56 [3]
Park o series has started back up! I was a little less keen when i saw the map because i didn't realise there'd be quite so much road running too, but the courses were actually really enjoyable! Covered over three park sections so it was good :) I had a bit of a fall on the bush track that lost me some time, but it's left me with some pretty impressive looking injuries so i guess that makes up for it a bit. Also think i may have taken a much slower route choice to the next control but nothing to significant i hope.

Running hills 45:00 [3]
10 min warm up. The outside of my calves got ridiculously sore... Had to stand still for a couple of minutes before starting the hills and they were alright until the warm down again.
2 sets of 4x60 second hills, jog down recovery. 2 minutes between sets.
This was tough! Legs still weren't feeling super fresh and it was pretty warm. Was pretty happy to have this session finished! They were pretty consistent though so i was happy with the efforts.
Then just under a 10 min warm down. Had to cut it short just before the last incline home because it got a little too uncomfortable, anyone have any tips on how to stretch the outside of your calf muscles?

Strength + Conditioning 30:00 [3]
Skipped out on the group run this week to give my calves a bit of a break and went for a 30 min walk (the most frustrating thing ever, plus it's super awkward when you try to overtake fellow walkers) and then joined in on the tough 'Tamara' strength session.

Orienteering 27:33 [3]
NOL 3 - sprint final
Bit of a bummer of a way to finish the weekend with such a bad mistake. I was feeling really good about the course until number 9, i lost at least 2 and a half minutes on not even a tricky leg, just followed around the wrong road... There's some positives looking at the splits up until then though i think, and it was a real good weekend anyway
