Orienteering race 58:58 [5] 8.2 km (7:11 / km) +240m 6:16 / km
Aus Relay Champs. Went out last, but ran steadily and was able to catch Louis near the first control, and then dropped him without much trouble. Caught Glenn Meyer early on in the final loop, but then stuffed up one of the easiest controls on the course, and subsequently lost the two places I had gained. Not happy.

Orienteering race 2:25:23 [5] 15.8 km (9:12 / km) +490m 7:58 / km
Aus Classic Champs. Pretty tough day out, and the lack of any navigational skill made things worse. Wasn't able to hang on to Lorenzo or Ben when I was stuffing around number 11, and had to run the rest of the race by myself. Really struggles on a course that was not that navigationally difficult, but I seemed to be running quite well for most of it.

Orienteering race 21:51 [4] 4.0 km (5:28 / km) +65m 5:03 / km
Aus Sprint Champs. Started off well, but started to fade a bit around 12. Stuffed up 14 and 15 quite badly, and almost got caught by Jim, and was very lucky not to get caught in the more technical "urban" section.

Orienteering race 55:53 [5] 8.5 km (6:34 / km) +220m 5:49 / km
Lost a bit of time at the first rocky control, and then got caught by Ryan after a poor route choice to number 5. Stayed with him until 11, where I hit the wall coming out of number 11. Ryan then took another 4 minutes out of me in the next 1.2km. Really needed to HTFU

Orienteering race 1:52:56 [5] 12.6 km (8:58 / km) +360m 7:51 / km
QLD Long champs. Got into the circle well on the first control, but then spent a lot of time stuffing around in the circle, in a similar mistake to the first one yesterday. Thought 5 was a bit suspect. Number 6 was pretty bad, but after that the only real problems were some pretty suspect route choices.

Orienteering race 1:00:14 [4] 6.0 km (10:02 / km) +190m 8:40 / km
Aus Middle Distance. Started off quite well, but then stuffed it on the first control in the green. Stuffed up two other controls after that, but not quite to the same extent. Slowed down and made sure I got all of the controls in the errosion gully.

Run 30:00 [2]
Up around Diamond Hill. Feeling OK despite gettting sick as soon as I started holidays. Should hopefully be right for Saturday.

Orienteering race 2:12:09 [4] 18.8 km (7:02 / km)
3 hour Maxi at St Georges Lake. Wanted to have a nice long run before QLD and that is what I got. A few pretty brutal hills in there, but the majority of the course was quite nice, particularly the last bit in the eucalypt. Took in nice and steady, and tried not to kill myself before Aus champs.
NB the 18.8km is the straight line distance measured by the computer, I was working a bit harder than 7min/km.

Mona fartlek around the lake. Fantastic evening for it. Wasn't feeling particularly fast. Hopefully this is not a sign of things to come.

Run 1:03:00 [3]
Should have been a bit of a longer run. Went out around the Res, where I haven't been for a while. Felt pretty warm out, but no doubt I will get a bit of that in the comming weeks.

Run 1:14:30 [4]
Would like to put his in as "orienteering", but unfortunately I was doing very little of that out there.
Nice local event on Mt Alexander. Would be an even better area if a bit of it was mapped to todays "standards"

Mona fartlek around the lake. Not feeling too got. Started off pretty slow, but pushed it a bit more in the back half once I started feeling better.
