Descente Au Flambeau
Old training which I've had stashed a way for a while. Wanted to do a session practicing focus in the circle, so this looked good. Terrain was super detailed in the first controls and slope, which was fine on1 and 2, but I lost it to 3 and couldn't match anything up. Skipped to 6 and was fine but slow from there.
Had a bee or a large fly dive bombing me for 5 controls before it finally gave up trying to hit my eye. Extra focus practice!

Orienteering race 46:32 [4] 6.0 km (7:45 / km)
Norwegian middle test.
10.5 mins back and on the face of it a pretty crap race. Which it was, far too many mistakes and a couple of dodgy/mistake routes. But plenty of positives to take too. A month to iron out the negatives!

Orienteering 1:15:04 9.35 km (8:02 / km) +170m 7:22 / km
ahr:147 max:165
Middle course out at Akselås.
Getting to the start was about the toughest part of the terrain tbh. Felt good and reading the terrain fairly well, just not concentrating brilliantly.
Got my right leg well stuck crossing a marsh 7 to 8. after 20s trying in vain to get out, i decided to time mysel. It took another 40 seconds of slow maneuvering to extract myself... :/ Slightly worrying given I was the only one out training on the map, hadn't explicitly told anyone where I was training...and being July in Norway, everyone is off on holidays so who knows when the next orienteer would have come along... ;) I'd have been moose food by then! Lucky I got out then.

ahr:147 max:163
single tracks in hoiasmarka.
Combination of cooler weather, less hair-weight, forest trails, and I dunno what else, but felt infinitely better than the last days running.

(rest day)
Meeting with the paleomag group at the GFZ in potsdam, then late travel back to Norway. Considered a jog before leaving, but opted to get a haircut instead. Good choice.

(rest day)
Catching up with uni friends in Berlin. Stinking hot day, and considering how I've been feeling when running the last days, good to back off and take a break.
Did a tour of some of the underground bunkers. Super interesting. Also learnt that the hill I've been doing reps up is actually a big pile of building rubble from WWII, with one side being the old flak tower - now used as a rock climbing wall.
