really uninspiring terrain (flat, featureless and open or flat, featureless and covered in lantana). cruised round the red 2. couldnt make myself take it seriously enough to really focus. still won by 10 mins or so. absolutley dominated the oldies!!! yipee....

| slept through 3 alarms so missed the saturday group run. went out at about 9.30am for a solo longish run. small problem was that my calves were insanely tight. made running uphill very painful, which is bad coz this run is steep. kept stopping for a stretch and threw in quite a bit of walking (especially up the back of mt cootha). nice run other than that.

| gunna give the body a rest today before starting the next lot of training coz its gunna be tough!!
got home @ 10.30 last night and managed to spend maybe an hour studying between then and my midday exam. it was a case of being too tired to concentrate and too dosed up on coffee to sleep. grrr |

| Running 25:00 [2] 4 km (6:15 / km) | |
| shoes: asics gel GT-2120 |
| very early morning run around the lake on my own. would have to go on the list as one of the best i reckon. running in my flanno through the frost covered grass looking over the misty lake as the sun was rising over the hills in the background. absolutely phenomenal!!! only problem was i couldnt feel my face & fingers it was that cold. across the wall afterwards for a bit of extra distance and scenery. |
| Orienteering 17:36 [4] 3.6 km (4:53 / km) | |
| ahr:166 shoes: asics gel GT-2120 |
| sprint training @ some looney asylum/golf course
really hard to get the legs moving after the big day yesterday plus the fact that jared (is that how you spell it?) absolutely annhialated my back yesterday during the massage. fairly slow but steady with no real problems apart from getting caught in blackberry bushes and verbally distracted by crazies. still couldnt get simon even with a 100 second handicap (although technically we all beat him coz he mis-punched) |

| classic training @ gumble creek
really enjoyed running today which i wasnt expecting so soon after the trials. took it slow and steady and put in a reasonably good time (2nd behind simon). actually starting to begin to want to orienteer competitivley again.
i found the talk from hanny in the arvo really good. i reckon it would have done me so much better though if i got it before the trails. such is life i suppose. |
