| My knee was still sore after the running for the bus debacle so i didnt train. Went up to Malung for the end of year party which was a cracker. |

| Orienteering 1:10:00 [3] *** 7 km (10:00 / km) | |
| shoes: silva k80 |
| Drove out to the new Hammarskog map with Boris to help him tag a few control sites for a race he is course setter for. I struggled a bit with the orienteering esp reading the map on the run in the terrain. It was 10 deg and raining but it felt positively barmy, i didnt even need gloves or a beanie.
Managed to hurt my knee in the arvo running for the bus, typical, hope it feels better in the morning. |

| Night sprint training race with OK Linne. I did a few small mistakes in the forest bits mainly with seeing the controls and keeping a straight line but i really struggled to run fast. I forgot my compass but it didnt matter much since it was mostly buildings. Boris loaned me his baseplate but i forgot about it and it sat underneath the map the entire time. Micke Nordström was fastest in 15min something, about 2min quicker than me. |

| I nearly cracked today after the latest instalment in my ongoing battle with Vårdcentralen, the swedish health system. I tried to see a Dr 2 weeks ago but just having high blood pressure wasnt good enough, now i need a new prescription so i am trying again.
I have been ringing my allocated house doctor for 6 days now at the allocated booking time of 8.15 - 9.00. Despite at least 30 attempts before today i had only got through to the nurse (who judges if you really are sick enough to see the dr) once, only to be told that the dr was away before she hung up.
Today i got through to a nurse again, explained the problem and she asked me for my person no. I thought i had cracked the system but as soon as i finished reeling off the bloody 10 didit no. she hung up - its no bloody wonder i have high blood pressure thats all i can say! |

| shoes: VJ Sarva 2006 |
| Tue night long run with OK Linne, jeez it was wet and muddy in the forest plus it was raining the entire time. I finally got a scab on my knee a couple of days ago and then I smacked my knee on a log tonight and nearly knocked off 6weeks of work. At least my knee felt ok apart from the log. |

| Metal bar gympa, it was pretty good, a bit like the ol' classic iron, even if it was a bit of a upper body emphasis. Soon i will be as huge as TQ. |
