| Orienteer (kuntorasti) 46:00 [4] | |
| (sick) |
| Was doing the smart thing, in bed resting. But the sun was shining outside...so maybe I will just walk a course. Of course as soon as I punched at the start, I had to run. Actually went fairly well considering the way I feel. Map was 1:7500 which was a pleasure to read. Wish they would use this sometimes for shorter races. Towards the end headed off the wrong way on a butterfly loop losing a few minutes since I went all the way to the wrong control before I noticed some guy I had passed much earlier coming from a different direction. Probably the 3rd or 4th time I have done this in the last year. The last time, I swear. Otherwise fairly clean. Felt REALLY bad afterwards...back to bed. |
Wednesday Apr 16 |
| Run (road) 57:00 [1] | |
| (sick) |
| This was just above a walking pace. Wanted to check if this unwell feeling is just in my head (some people go to doctors but I run). Clearly not well as I was so weak that I was tempted almost the whole time just to stop and sit down on the road. Have also had light cramps on and off in my guts for 36 hours. None of this adds up to any recognisable illness but I have got something. |

Monday Apr 14 |
| Run (dirt roads) 1:05:00 [2] | |
| |
| Morning run including one warm-up run up Laajavuori. |
| Run hills 25:00 [5] | |
| |
| 4xLaajavuori (back road from Laajari to top of ski jump). Road includes one dip in the middle to recover before a brutal 18%. Did this in new falling snow. Felt good after finally sleeping well last night. This was statisfying training, even if I still am not pushing myself up to maximum effort. |
Sunday Apr 13 |
| Orienteer (forest) 2:00:00 [1] | |
| |
| Morning check, together with Kimmo, of the map and possible control sites for a "kuntorasti" we are doing next month. We were out during a rare ice storm. Surprised by how deep the snow was in most places, turning it into more of a hike at times. It is going to be a quite physically challenging A-route for this one. |
