| Warm-up and cool down for the Swiss WOC sprint selection race. Had tired legs and felt like my throat was tight. I felt fine during the race though. |
| Orienteering race 17:14 [5]* 2.7 km (6:23 / km) +25m 6:06 / km | |
| spiked:16/17c shoes: Inov-8 Roclite 285 |
| Really good race! I really came into a sprint flow and pushed as hard as I could. It was a pretty easy sprint and it came down to running speed. I lost 1'07" to Lea Müller and was 11th. It was a WRE so we'll see if I get some good points for today. Overall a nice feeling to run another good sprint race, I feel really comfortable in my sprint running ability.

Not a great race. The terrain was really tough, pretty thick with lots of underbrush, dead-fall, and rocky. I am just not that great at running fast through that type of terrain. I also made some mistakes. I did have some spots in the race where I was running at a good tempo and orienteering well, but some sort of mistake always broke up my rhyme. At the 4th control I made a 90 second mistake and Seline Stalder, who started 2 minutes behind me caught me. I was with her until number 7, and saw her ahead of me on the trail on the way to 8. At 8 I was ahead (cool!), she passed me up the hill to 9 and she was in sight on the way toward 11. I saw she was going a little too far to the right and got to 11 before her and stay ahead until 13. I made another 90 second mistake to 14 and never saw her again, too bad. Yet another mistake to 15 and then just fighting the rest of the way. To the last control was a long climb up and then the finish shoot was also uphill for about 2 minutes. On my way to the last control I suddenly couldn't breath well anymore and running up the finish shoot was really hard. When I go to the finish I was wheezing a lot. This continued for several minutes and I even felt a little dizzy. Not a good feeling. Since then I feel totally wiped out and I have a head ache.. wonder what this could be.
Winning time was 39'23 (Ines Brodmann), lots of girls at 44 minutes or so. Results are here:http://www.o-l.ch/cgi-bin/results?year=2008&event=... |

| (rest day) |
| Watched the relay yesterday and got too much sun. Took it as a rest day, eventhought I knew I wouldn't be able to run today, since I am traveling all day. I don't think two rest days are bad after 5 races. Plus, I am running the Swiss WOC selection races starting on Friday (middle), Sunday (sprint), and Monday (long). |
