| Terrain training with Gneist at Livarden, Bergen. Ran up to the top of Livarden. Nice open land after only 10 minutes of running -- tree line is quite low here, at maybe 300m elevation. Ran in the fog up to the top partly on the trail an partly in the marshy hillside. Fantastic place to train. |

| Hatehaugen - Hjellestad test course. Wasn't planning on running the test course, but started pushing it after about two minutes when I thought "why just jog". Made two errors when trying to find the route, but managed somewhat to reconstruct a rough time estimate.

| Travel trip from Oslo to Bergen over Hardangervidden and over the Bruarvik ferry. Brought the cross country skis so we could ski on Hardangervidden, but 5 degrees and rain put a stop to that.

| Did some tour-orienteering controls with my dad at Steinshoegda. Did all the square controls (51 58 60 59 57 55 54 53 52). Nicer forest than what I remembered it to be. Quite vague terrain, and the map was a bit rough, almost like running on some maps in Canada.

| Orienteering race 46:52 [4]**** 5 km (9:22 / km) | |
| shoes: New Balance crazy terrain runn |
| Orienteering at Songsvann Øst. 1st control was a bit hidden and I went right by it. Control 4 was difficult, but navigated well into it, 3rd best split. Missread some of the rocky ground near 5 and made a 2 min mistake. Probably another minute on 7 since the marsh near the trail looked like the green area further up. Bad direction off the trail towards 9. Lots of mistakes today, surprised I was only 5 minutes behind the winner. Bests splits on 2, 10, and 11, second best on #3. Felt in good running shape today.
yellow=4, black=10
