 | Orienteering race 35:00 [4] | |

| Flock Hill. Awesome place. simply designed course went basically up for 24 minutes, lost for 4 minutes, then down for 5 minutes. Was feeling crap on the hills walking and waiting for Chris to catch me. But was entertained by the awesome rocks. Missed three by 1 min. Then blew no. 8 big time when Chris caught up. Was not far off with initial attack (It was well hidden on the other side of the small rock I went too) but really relocated poorly wasting alot more time than everyone else who seemed to make the same mistake. The down hill was fun although I was dissapointed to not catch Chris up again. |

| Orienteering race (Sprint) 15:00 [4] | |
| |
| SI champs sprint, Carstens Beach supreme. Was an awesome course/area. Didn't have too much top gear because of cold but didn't matter too much as it was a good technical course. Felt good at the end/afterwards which probably reflects how hard I pushed. However I didn't make so many mistakes as normal for me in a sprint (except poor route to no.1) so maybe more oxygen is my solution to my shit sprint results. Got pipped by my new arch nemisis Scott. And 3 seconds by both James and Mark. But smoked by my hairy arch nemisis the Fornicator. |
| Orienteering race 1:10:00 [4] | |

| SI champs. Night mass start race. This is the sort of event I dream about. Fun fun fun. However I didn't handle the excitement well at all. Stuffed the first too rushing and following to lose the pack...but then didn't learn my lesson at all and continued to fumble around the two loop course with most of the other "elites". NAN (New arch nemesis) Scott toyed with me for most of the course then burnt me at the finish. I need to get back my competitive aggression...I can't believe I let a 16 year old school me. |

| Running - Off road (Fartlek) 30:00 [4] | |

| After ride. Thighs like solid brick but other muscles ok.
Whilst I felt ok training, as soon as I finished I knew the cold I've been fighting off for a few days had struck. Dissapointed as I wanted a big two weeks of training which would have been easy with SI champs this weekend and ARC next weekend. |
