| Orienteering 40:00 [4]**** 6 km (6:40 / km) | |
| shoes: VJ Integrator 2 |
| First days training on the jwoc training camp, most of the juniors were just jogging around a line course i had drawn so i ran a course that we had set for a few who had already seen the terrain. It was a lot like silkeborg terrain actually only thicker. I ran hard and it was surprisingly difficult with very variable but mostly poor visibility making it really challenging, a couple of small mistakes and felt a bit dead on some of the big hills. |

| An easy jog, i had planned to run intervals but had a pretty sore stomach after eating the rich meat and soup that fat roma had cooked up for lunch and there was no way i could run intervals - have to do em tomorrow. |

| A long day travelling to druskininkai in lithuania to help out at the australian jwoc training camp. After flying into kaunas with ryanair we didnt have long to make it to the bus station before the last bus left and we paid a crazy local taxi driver to fang us in there and made it easily - definately the scariest taxi ride i have ever had though - he loved the inside overtake when there were a few vacant parking places on the inside.
The next 100km down to druskininkai took about 4 hours since the bus driver stopped at every haystack to let someone off or just to let somone off for a smoke.
Finally made it to the aus training camp accom at 7.30pm 13 hrs after i left uppsala, we are staying at a pretty cool b and b with a pool owned by a crazy fat chef called fat roma.
Headed out for a 30min jog with reubs before dinner, felt crap and reubs was pumping along. |

| Ran a ok linne middle distance training in the lunsen forest. Felt pretty good and was pretty clean apart from 2 30sec errors around the control. Tried to make a picture of the control area in my head as i approached the control and this was starting to work well today. |

| Running to get to the training and back with Boris. The world cup nearly claimed its first training session casualty since Boris and i were watching the usa - ghana match and made a last minute bolt to make it to the clubhouse but we were 2min late and everyone had left. We made it to the training in the end with a combination of two buses and some runnning. just made it home in time for the aus - croatia match, not on swe tv...DEBACLE!!! watched over the net and was sweet to see them snatch a draw and go through to the next round, YEH!!!!

| I was planning to train high tempo orienteering intervals today but i felt like i was getting sick when i woke up so i took it easy instead. A cruisey jog in the light rain around the norby ski track.
Also cracked and cleaned the old apartment bathroom today, jeez it was hard work even for a seasoned house husband like myself. |

| 3 x 2.5km loop on the hilly norby ski loop, recovery in brackets. 9.14 (2.00), 9.14 (2.00), 9.02. A good solid session, felt a bit heavy after the weekend and was hard to run really fast but these are about the best times i have run this loop in anyway. |

| A long easy run on king bjorns path in the nåsten forest. A pretty rough path with a lot of mud and marshes so it was practically terrain running. Got a bit tired towards the end and it was nice to get home to some cordial. |
