 | Orienteering (Burngoogee training) 22:07 [4] 2.7 km (8:11 / km) | |
| shoes: Jalas - new |
| Opted for training at Burngoogee rather than the Wagga/Albury interclub at Table Top (by the sounds of it I made the right decision).
Set myself 2 3kmish loops, mainly using rocks as control features. The green has definitely thickened up in some areas which was a bit confusing so made sure I used the contours more than anything

| Orienteering (Burngoogee training) 23:13 [4] 3.1 km (7:29 / km) | |
| shoes: Jalas - new |
| Was cursing the course setter (myself) on the way to the first control.... up a nice rocky hill. A bit more open running on this loop, was reading the rock nicely
|
| Orienteering (Shockeroo Track training) 42:44 [4] 6.2 km (6:54 / km) | |
| shoes: Jalas - new |
| Popped across the road to Shockeroo, haven't run here for a while. Set myself a course with a couple of long legs through vague spur/gully terrain as I often have trouble staying in contact with the map, it worked, the first long leg I managed to stop way short and run around like an idiot before I realised where I was. Good fast open running, some of the rocks were a bit hard to see as they were covered in moss. Was feeling pretty exhausted by the end |

| Orienteering (Connorton training) 1:01:18 [4] 8.1 km (7:34 / km) | |
| shoes: Jalas - new |
| Out to Connorton for some orienteering training with Mum. Was still frosty when we got there, my thumb was so so cold in my compass but stopped hurting after about 10mins, not sure if it was because it had gone numb.
Started off slowly and cautiously, and was feeling pretty good after about 10mins, sun was really annoying at one stage being so low in the sky, was really hard to keep in contact with the map whilst making sure I didn't stack it.

| Running race 17:16 [4] 4 km (4:19 / km) vdot: 44.9 | |

| The rest of the family was going to roadies so decided to tag along, only did the short. Was feeling a bit tight after the morning but it was good |

| Running 1:07:30 [3] | |
| shoes: Asics Gel Kayano 13 |
| Morning Plumpton/Boiling Down run. Freezing this morn (-1.5 degrees when I was running!), lucky I'd added a couple of layers. A heavy frost provided some crunchy running. The footbridge at the northern end of Lake Albert even had a nice layer of ice on it. |

| Running 47:50 [3] | |
| shoes: Asics Gel Kayano 13 |
| Willans standard. Feeling a bit sluggish this arvo after a big lunch.
Some disappointing news today, the Riverina Marathon/Relay has been cancelled (thanks to Wagga City Council, the most anti-progress and aging council) this year. Had been looking forward to running it as a 2 person relay with Dad. Hopefully they'll have it up and running again next year, maybe with a new course. |

| Running 52:40 [3] | |
| shoes: Asics Gel Nimbus |
| A lovely morning for a run, no rain!! Did my streets loop but in the opposite direction, going up Stanley St was a killer so I think I'll stick to running it the other way |
| Gym 1:00:00 [3] | |
| |
| Body Pump was on tonight, changed time (half an hour later, so damn had to spend half an hour longer at work!). Didn't do triceps again, woohoo!!
I must have worn an o'ing t-shirt a few weeks ago as an ex-Orienteer (before my time) introduced herself to me before the class, Karen Barbey (orienteered in Wagga back in the Rod Dominish days), so we had a great chat about who's still running from her days |

| Running 53:00 [3] | |
| shoes: Asics Gel Kayano 13 |
| Morning streets, managed to get home just before our sprinkle of rain. Nice, easy run and not too cold, tho by the sounds of it I won't be that lucky tomorrow morn!!
Had planned on going to body pump this arvo, but when I got to the gym discovered that they had changed the time table since last week, bugger. Went for a fast walk in the drizzle when I got home instead. |
Monday Jun 18 |
| Running warm up/down 16:00 [3] | |

| Easy run in the chilly weather to and from Nelson Dr for some attempted intervals. |
| Running intervals 30:00 [4] | |
| shoes: Asics Gel Kayano 13 |
| 6 x 500m intervals, with a 500m recovery back to the start along Nelson Dr. Went ok for the first 4, but kinda lost motivation for the last 2. |
