Event: Bells Rapids Badge Event
9 AM
Running warm up/down 9:14 1.46 km (6:21 / km) +13m 6:04 / km
ahr:132 max:158 shoes: Adidas Swoop Blue
Run to the start plus a few times up and down the track near the start. Heart rate seemed unusually high, not dropping on the downhills, which worried me as I thought it might be a sign of some nervous adrenaline which would cause me problems when I started racing. No issues with the heart during the race so very happy about that!
Orienteering race 1:26:51 **** 14.24 km (6:06 / km) +548m 5:07 / km
ahr:156 max:166 spiked:20/23c shoes: Adidas Swoop Blue
Jumbuck Hill badge event. Pretty good steady run for most of it but made a complete mess of 13. Knew it was a dangerous control and I should be careful and approach from the South to be safe but never really intended to do what I thought I should. Got within 20m of it but wasn't quite where I thought I was and then the boulder cluster half way to 14 caught my eye encouraging me to do a big loop to the North before finally finding my way back 2:45 later. Probably lost about 15 seconds on 2 and a bit less on 12 as well.
Felt reasonable physically, not fast but keeping up a good solid pace without too much trouble until 21 where I rolled my right ankle. Didn't feel that bad as I did it but it was very painful any time I twisted my foot slightly as I hobbled the last couple of legs. Still only lost about 30 seconds from 21 to the finish, thought it would have been more. Got the win by about 6 minutes over Ben.

Running hills 21:28 3.21 km (6:41 / km) +100m 5:47 / km
ahr:129 max:160 slept:8.0 weight:70.2kg shoes: Nike Free 3.0
Jogged to the end of the street and did a few drills and sprints on Bailey Rd. All a bit too easy, need to find a steeper hill next time.
Felt some irregular beats and a few flutters on the left side of my chest when I woke up this morning but this time it was coming from my pectoral muscles not my heart.

ahr:151 max:182 shoes: Nike Free 7.0
Warm up for 5k time trial. Heart rate monitor not working at all, too cold and dry, lots of interference from my shirt. Heart was fine really.
Running race 18:51 4.29 km (4:24 / km) +112m 3:53 / km
ahr:160 max:167 shoes: Nike Free 7.0
"5k" time trial. Wanted to see just how far I have slipped in the last couple of months but I wasn't sure if I was really prepared to push myself hard so thought it might turn in to just a solid tempo run. It was clear by the top of the first hill that it was going to be a proper all out time trial and I was able to keep pushing all the way without any heart trouble so pretty happy about that.
Not so happy about the time but at least I know where I really stand now. Almost 2 minutes slower than my last few efforts and almost a minute slower than my previous slowest ever. Really felt the legs were lacking any sort of power on the hills.
