| Mtn bike 40:00 [1] | |
| |
| Went for a late evening ride on some rented bikes with Anita and Laurent. Got as far as Kabelvaag lighthouse but it was getting cold and so we turned around after that. Got to enjoy the midnight sun indirectly since we're on the south side of the island. Were out for 1:45 total. |

| Ran up Keiservarden from our hotel in downtown Bodoe. Had beautiful weather and nice views. Took some nice photos. Technically had an orienteering map but really only looked at it a few times. |
| Mtn bike 45:00 [1] | |
| |
| Rented a couple of bikes and biked up Keiservarden with Anita. Unfortunately by the time we headed off, there was fog/cloud at the top. Still, had a good time. Legs a bit stiff from yesterday. |

| Event: Norsk O Festivalen
|
| Orienteering race 50:00 [5] | |
| |
| O-festivalen middle distance World Cup. Quite shaky on long leg to #3 and got behind on orienteering. Made several smaller mistakes and 2 minutes by #8. Ran reasonably well after this so I have to be happy about that. Unfortunately my splits are missing from the results pdf on O-fest page (possibly due to my returning the loaned Emit card right after the race?). I'll look at the printout later and compare with the online results. |

| |
| Model event for middle distance World Cup tomorrow. Rainy but warm. Nice forest and good flow today. Have to be careful on the dowhill attacks and there are some areas of low visibility. I feel good for tomorrow's race. |

| Orienteering 46:00 [2]+238m | |
| ahr:125 |
| Did a very relaxed "o-terval" session in Jegersberg. Focused on flow and reading ahead. Felt better than prior trainings but that is partly a function of the speed.
Raining and windy today. Hopefully will be nice driving weather tomorrow. |

| Orienteering 52:00 [4] | |
| |
| Ran a middle simulation course by Pascal using controls used by the guys for a night interval training session. Compared to how it can be around here, it was relatively flat but very tough in places with steep cliffs and detailed. Features marked by small reflectors that were hard to see - lost some time being sure on the correct feature before actually seeing the reflectors and didn't see the reflectors sometimes. Overall I think it disrupted the flow to have to look for these little things and prevented reading ahead after a while. ~9min/k again and spending time afterwards picking off ticks. Ah, Sorlanda. |

| Orienteering 1:10:00 [3] | |
| |
| Re-ran the club champs middle and sprint courses in Sorlandsparken while Holger and Sandy did some control picking. Re-acquainted myself with Sorlands terrain. 10min/km is not bad here. Good courses and lots of micro-routes to find the fastest way. I can't say that I did exceptionally well at this today. Legs still heavy from the weekend. |
