 | Orienteering race (Street O) 43:03 [3] * 9.1 km (4:44 / km) +160m 4:21 / km | |
| shoes: Ascent Creations |
| North side Street O. Started off alright but after about 3.5km of fast pace running i died. Split up from kieran after that and apparently got ahead of him but i was too slow through the middle section and he caught me again. Finished off well though but didn't help that i had an extra 600m to go than kieran cause of my route choice. Still sick or sumthin, had a chunk of phlegm in my throat all the way round and a slight head cold which didn't help. Gotta do it all again tomorrow night. YAY |

| Orienteering race (Park O) 22:24 [3] *** 4.16 km (5:23 / km) | |
| spiked:11/12c shoes: Ascent Creations |
| Park O at Ipswich UQ. Started off alright then blew on a control which was in the wrong spot/wrong feature but due to past experience with these races i should have just gone to the control i could see. Pretty much lost what i was doin the next two controls then didn't have much motivation to finish strongly as it was above 35 degrees. Gotta learn to ignore mistakes and run the same the rest of the course. Sorry bout not winning jukka. |

| shoes: Ascent Creations |
| Had done nothing all day and wanted to do training of some sort so decided to do my hills circuit. Chest was tight again and legs were stuffed but managed to run the lot. Didn't feel to bad today but still got a couple of cold symptons so who knows whats wrong with me. Still yet to work out how much climb in the run but i'm guessing its easily over 100 metres |

| 7.5km run at clives training. he said hes just gonna work on our running for the next couple of weeks before we get back into navigation work.

Was thinking of doing some popcorn lifts to prepare myself for the video viewing with the keely boys but decided against it. |

| Running alright to start with then got caught by tom. stuck with him for a while then got caught by ryan and the pace got a bit too quick and i hit the wall up a hill. Decided to go hard out on the long leg to catch back up to simon which i did. It was really hard to read the map because of how detailed it was cause it was a granite 1:15000 map. Finished in 5th which is my best place at an Aus champs. |
