| No running for me today because of the pulled butt muscle. Long spinning class instead. This has been an impressive week for me in terms of hurting myself - started with just knee pain. Then added the pulled butt muscle on Wednesday, sprained a finger trying to defend against Millinger during innebandy on Thursday, and capped it off by slamming a door on another finger yesterday, getting a nice big blood blister on it. I wonder what'll be next... |

| Tempo run on the normal club tempo run loop - along Rosendalsvägen and then south on Vårdsätravägen towards Lurbo. I think I managed to pull a butt muscle yesterday, which did weird things to my stride tonight - I never felt like I had good rhythm and had to force each stride. On the other hand, the speed felt ok - like actual tempo run speed, which I could hold the entire 40 minutes. |

| Uppsala Night Cup on Southern Nåsten. Wow. Been a while since I had a worse day of orienteering! Started bad, and only got worse. I wasn't the only one - everyone seemed to be running around lost tonight, but it was still pretty shocking. In particular, there were at least three controls where I was at the right feature but didn't see the reflector, which was very frustrating. Towards the end things seemed to be getting worse and worse when I finally realized that my lamp was dying. I promptly turned for home, not wanting to be stuck in the dark Swedish woods in the freezing rain. No fun to DNF, but this was the right decision tonight. |

| After running around from lecture to workshop to seminar all day long, I finally realized that I hadn't charged my lamp battery with about 40 minutes left before training. I decided to use this as a convenient excuse to skip out on the Tuesday night run in the miserable cold rain we've been having all day, and instead biked down to Ultuna for a double session of spinning at the new F&S there. This was a sweatfest. By the end, people walking by the puddle next to my bike were looking up to see if the roof was leaking. Good fun. |
