Running warm up/down 20:00 [3]

A bit slack with the warm down, the foot was a bit sore

Orienteering long (Oceania Long) 1:34:24 [3]

Ahhhhhhhhhh so so cranky with myself. Honestly think it must've been the only control of the course I didn't check the code, and it was because I got there at the same time as Katie and it all looked right so I didn't even consider we would both be wrong.
Apart from that though I messed up 1 quite bad, didn't really give enough credit to the low visibility and wasn't careful enough with my compass. Then didn't really get into race mode until about number 5. The next bit was good but I messed 14 quite bad and then was really sloppy with my planning and exit direction on the last 5 or so. Didn't completely die in the legs but definitely fatigued a lot, but surprised to not be too far behind in time considering. WinSplits say 11mins of mistakes and an mp, so pretty mad overall.

Running warm up/down 25:00 [3]

Orienteering race (Oceania sprint. ) 17:29 [3]

Really fun but I didn't quite have the legs for it. Couldn't hold the speed and really struggled with all the acceleration. Made some small silly errors but left me feeling positive enough for the rest of the races.

Jog with some surges with Heather to spark up the legs. No cyclone in sight, hooray.

7 AM

Running 40:00 [3]
(injured)

15 min jog, 4x1/1, 4x30/30, 14min jog. Bit depressing how hard I found it to run at an 'ok' pace for just a minute... but the foot was ok after a warm up and I could've kept going so I should stop having a whinge.
5 PM

Strength + Conditioning 20:00 [3]
(injured)

Core because I had time to kill before the cycle class

cycling 45:00 [3]

'Tempo' cycle class. 'Twas ok except the guy next to me shut the windows that I had opened because I was all sweaty...

Running warm up/down 16:00 [3]

11ish warm up 5ish warm down.

Orienteering race (NOY 1) 30:26 [3]
(injured)

Instructed to do a half hour and I was pretty bung on if you get rid of the 20seconds I lost at the end trying to find the finish... Really really fun! A bit sloppy with my compass discipline a few times and luckily got away with it because it was so open, but that definitely won't be the case next weekend! I guess it was good collecting features practice though. Foot was a bit sore in the warm up but pretty well forgot about it when I was out there, apart from when I was pushing it up hills and could hear my podiatrist in my head telling me to avoid hills and accelerations...
