| Warm up before efforts, in between efforts and then an average orienteering session in the forest (see Nick's post) and then a good run home with Tim. I was in a strange mood after the efforts and didn't really help the group other than make negetive comments. Shame, anyway I've got some good exercises planned for my training day. |

| Missed training today. Worked late and then just couldn't be arsed going out at night. Was really pissed of with myself the next day, especially cos I got the new programme from the super coach and I've already let him down! Was supposed to do 60 min with 40 intensity 4. |

| Orienteering race 55:00 [4] | |
| |
| Celebre, but was really well set course. Went hard as I could. a few woopsies but happy that I've started to race properly again. Just need to get strong enough to keep pushing after half an hour and to stay in control and not panick when things don't fit.

| Orienteering race 1:12:00 [4] | |
| |
| Weiti. Bugger, I finally started reading the map and felt ok in the legs. However there were a few controls in the wrong place and big green patches not marked making it a unfair and unvalid. Was still fun for me though.
Twisted right ankle on the way to no. 1. swollen and sore after. |
Saturday Feb 9 |
| Orienteering race 35:00 [5] | |
| |
| Hedley Road. Went as hard as I could, but that wasnt that fast and my map reading couldn't keep up, stumbled around a bit and managed to get lucky most of the way until I finally lost my head at number 8. Surprised to be in 5th at spectator loop and dissapointed Karl and James passed me on final easy loop. Was fun though, which we had more races like that and I might find the right gear. |

| Sprint Race Waikato Uni. Felt average, which was disapointing considering I was trying to improve in this disapline. Felt like I have never done any training for it. Made my usual sprint errors as well which is understandable as I haven't done anything to improve that part of my navigation. |
