5 AM

Gym 1:00 [3] * 0.5 mi (2:00 / mi) +50m 1:32 / mi
shoes: Nike Zoom Fly

Again, the time, distance & climb isn't very accurate unless you manage to find my IP address and measure the hill outside my house from there. I don't like getting up at 5 to compensate for lily's 5:30 am schedule as it's a dodgy area in the middle of darkness...
After this week I'm even contemplating doing morning training ever again as I feel sleep deprived after during the whole day. Doesn't help when all the lemons are gone to weaken my immune system when I feel most vulnerable (School day, Finishing training session).

Orienteering (Rob & Lois) 32:20 [2] ** 4.76 km (6:48 / km) +100m 6:09 / km
shoes: Nike Zoom Fly

Super easy run because it was at mum's pace as we were doing an Indian file orienteering training session. I'm pretty sure Mum and I both annoyed the crap out of each other as I wanted to go faster as I felt like my overall fitness was decreasing, but I don't think she liked me slowly edging rob and her to go faster (Even on steep downhill she was going slow!)
I felt like I could have cracked under 4.30/km on that course, but mum is still shuffling at 7 min/km.

Orienteering 6:49 [3] *** 0.9 km (7:34 / km)
shoes: Salomon S/Lab Speed

Coaching assessment for Lily as she set this course at Jorgensen Park. Sadly, it's a poor map to show off aiming off.
12 PM

Orienteering (Attack Points) 16:33 [4] *** 1.73 km (9:34 / km) +50m 8:22 / km

Again, Coaching assessment for mum and lily, along with many other aspiring coaches. I think I probably ran 3km this day, but they would waste space on my Garmin.
Mum got picked with attack points, but luckily there are attack points up towards the north section of the map.

Run 24:46 [4] * 5.0 km (4:57 / km)
shoes: Nike Zoom Fly

Very easy run at Woodbridge riverside recently. Seemed fine as I went out hard with jo, but I ended up foreignly catching up to her toward the last kilometre, as she runs back onto the path from the river bushes:D
Nothing felt odd or knees hurting, but very happy with the parkrun pb!

Watch out MSW!

Orienteering (East side training) 10:01 [5] **** 1.57 km (6:23 / km)
shoes: Salomon S/Lab Speed

A training session at eastern side of city again, jo and Tyler turned up! The first exercise at Talbot road reserve had quite a lot of sand tracks, but we couldn’t go in bush.
I went in a pair with Tyler as rob n Lois wanted us to do that, we ended up catching up to coreen and rob, mum and Andrea to beat jo and lily!

Orienteering (Eastern side training) 13:26 [5] ***** 1.62 km (8:18 / km)
shoes: Salomon S/Lab Speed

Second activity, another short course with high epintesity as we didn’t want jo and Lily beating us again. But, the map and ground had other plans.
We ended up overrunning 2 controls, just because they’re were non existent features! Lily and jo ended up smashing us sadly as we got tricked by robs sneaky setting. They’re were quite a lot of sand tracks and we couldn’t go into the bush.

Run 11:52 [3] ** 2.0 km (5:56 / km) +10m 5:47 / km
shoes: Salomon S/Lab Speed

Was very nice towards me as the next session will explain why, Although on the sprints I did put in 100%.

Just wondering if this is enough for strengthening my legs?

Run (School Beep Test) 8:28 [4] ** 1.4 km (6:03 / km)
shoes: Nike Zoom Fly

I managed to score a decent score of 8.11, although I feel I could of went for longer (But I got caught out lacking speed on the run back of 9.1) I hate the slowing down as my knees weren't liking it at all, but towards the last few I was running along the line.
