| Steady run around the first 2/3 or so of the Finnish/Czech long trial, stopped after the butterfly loops. Legs felt like lead on the first hill and really wasnt enjoying the terrain. Some of it was awesome but they put a lot of controls in open (ie nettle and grass) areas and a lot of the tracks were just nettles so it wasnt real fun. Apparently the map was printed on recycled nettles. Science, what isnt it good for. |

| cruised around a course on a map that makes the Tarr Destroyer look like a genius. didnt have much fun, and still feeling pretty ordinary. although i've decided i will be healthy by tomorrow. running with Jo, Robbie and Simon with Kathryn on a breakaway until we reeled her in for the last couple of controls. |

| (rest day) |
| travelling to czech. planned to race the finnish trials but traffic, roadwork, cops in short skirts and high heels, accidents and 328km in 7.5 hours meant we barely made it to prostejov for beers. was too tired to do anything else except eat pizza. now we gonna race czech trials (followed by a country and western rave party) on wednesday, prob works out better anyway as we'll get to run a qual + final on the same day, just like woc. |

| GMOK training at Skatås, although with some guys in Czech and a lot at a JWOC meeting it turned out to be just Jo, W&W and John Beach. I did 10 x 2mins with 1min jog recovery. Johan pulled out on the 6th, which made me feel good, but then by the 7th i'd forgotten that and started feeling tired again. W&W powered away and did another 2 after i'd finished, he could probably eat 4 or 5 Hagabullar so i am nowhere near his league. |
