Aiming for consistent speed, which i didnt really achieve - got carried away and ran with craney for the 1st one which i suffered for in the end.

| Orienteering race 1:11:00 [3]13.9 km (5:06 / km) +450m 4:24 / km | |
| ahr:151 max:168 shoes: Silva K120 | ||
| Another training race, which i wanted to run pretty steady, but a BIG mistake on the 2nd control threw my motivation down the drain. seems like everyone missed the control, theres something dodgy about it and i just couldnt find the f*cken thing, the gps track shows i went pretty close! a few misses on some other controls too, which werent helped by the course planner not breaking the lines - which were obscuring some pretty important details. i think the 151 hr ave indicates my level of enthusiasm. pretty enjoyable area though. | ||
| C • Bingo! 6 | ||
Saturday Mar 24 | ||
| Event: NSW Sprint Champs (NSW SL1) | ||
| Orienteering race 12:46 [4]***** 3.2 km (3:59 / km) +53m 3:41 / km | |
| ahr:168 max:175 shoes: Nike Waffle XC | ||
| This was more of a training race for me but still i tried to run well... it went ok, just one small mistake and lost a few seconds not seeing a tunnel on the map so ran around a building instead. was 45 seconds behind jules, most of which was running speed. but theres more there for me so i think things are slowly coming back together, although i'm still way off where i was when things started going wrong in the end of 2004... this was a good map and good course, worth the trip down from canberra.

Stupid polar watch was stuck on 124 for the whole first interval so the ave is completely wrong. check out the ave hr for the recoveries: 152, 156, 163, 163, 164, 158 - all greater than or equal to the preceding effort. | ||

Max EPOC 101ml/kg VO2 Max 52ml/kg/min Max Training Effect 3.2 Just out of interest (i've talked about the FRWD unit not accurately measuring distance on forest trails) my FRWD unit says the intervals were 782, 780, 779, 798, 801 and 797 metres long. | ||
