 | Orienteering race 45:00 [3] | |

| Some of the long race til I blew up. I'm glad I didn't read the pre-race details as I might have felt a slight twinge of guilt as I continued crossing all of the fences regardless. |

 | Orienteering race 15:14 [5] | |
| shoes: Nike Air Zoom Vomero +2 |
| WOC sprint trial. Winning at #7 then the silliest mistake ever at #8 which cost me it. Route choice to #6 looks to have cost me 10secs. Other than that I ran really well, so on any other day I would've been really pleased with myself. |
 | Orienteering race 40:14 [5] | |
| shoes: jalas o-shoes |
| WOC middle trial. 7th, but was up in 3rd at #14. Very scrappy after that - probably as I was trying too hard and didn't feel like I was doing very well (in terms of mistakes and shape, I wasn't doing very well, but it looks like no-one else was). Should've done better. Can't say I enjoyed that course very much - it looks great on the map, just pants in real life. |

Thursday Jun 5 |
 | Running intervals 20:00 [5] | |
| shoes: Nike Air Zoom Vomero +2 |
| 10x 90sec intervals (30secs rec) at lunchtime round Meanwood. Felt pretty good, got a decent comfortable pace going on. Drank too much coffee pre-run. |
 | Running 17:00 [3] | |
| shoes: Nike Air Zoom Vomero +2 |
| Before and after. Way too humid in the showers at work and still sweating as I got back to my desk despite having a cold shower. |
Wednesday Jun 4 |
 | Running 45:00 [3] | |
| shoes: Nike Air Zoom Vomero +2 |
| Meanwood and the uni area after work. Found another burnt out car that I hadn't seen before. |

 | Note | |
| (rest day) |
| Giving the achilles some recovery and trying to catch up on rest. After Grace's alarm got us up at 7.20am, I was eating my brekkie and commented to Grace how strange it was that both my watch and phone said it was 5.30am (thinking there'd been some weird clock-stopping power surge or something). She then realised her phone was on Latvian time and we'd gotten up 2 hours early. We laughed and laughed and laughed and went back to bed. |

| (rest day) |
| Got to bed at 4am just as it was getting light. Got up at 7.20am to go to work. Feeling a little jaded. Still partially deaf from the water park on Friday. |
