Sunday Jun 15 | ||
| Note | |
| Stayed up all night. First there was Anu's bachelorette party and then when most of the women crawled into their sleeping bags, I watched the men's relay until the end. | ||
Saturday Jun 14 | ||
| Event: Jukola 2008 | ||
| Orienteering race (Venla relay) 1:01:16 [4]**** 7.1 km (8:38 / km) | |
| 86/951. +9.11. Fist leg in HS2.
I did it! :) I made it to the top 100. That's something I've never done before. I almost got a little emotional when I saw the position on the board when I was running to the changeover. It felt so damn good! :) I didn't think that my pace would be fast enough for the top 100. But I only made one mistake when I ran to the wrong forking in the 8th control. I kept my cool and the mistake was max 60s. The forkings were very good and I was running nearly alone in many parts of the course. I was very very tired in the end. I was 79th in some point but I have no idea how the forkings affected the times. HS2 Hanna 86. +9.11 Päivi 71. +18.57 Annika 57. +25.19 Minna 49!!!!!! :) +34.55 | ||

| Jogging 30:00 [2] | |
| ahr:139 | ||
| Ran to the Murole channel and back from the accommodation. There was one big hill.
STRETCHING 1:00:00. Free full board at the accommodation of the Austrian army team (+Bindi). Not bad, not bad at all! ;) So it was Kerschi, Markus, Bindi, Wolfi, Thomas, Erik, Max, Richard - and I. | ||
Thursday Jun 12 | ||
| Event: Forssa Games | ||
| Orienteering race 35:36 [3]*** | |
| I have never ever run well in Forssa Games. Usually I get very lost or simply just make lots of mistakes. I don't know in which category I should put this year. I was trying to run too fast in the beginning because I felt like crap physically and then the lactate must have gone in my brain and I found myself in the 5th control instead of the 4th control after wondering around in the forest for a while... After finally finding the 4th control I almost couldn't find the 5th control anymore. And then I just decided to save the rest of my strenght for Saturday and jogged the rest of the course. | ||
| Jogging warm up/down 30:00 [1] | |
Wednesday Jun 11 | ||
| Running 30:00 [1] | |
| ahr:134 | ||
| followed by a quick STRETCHING session.
Very stiff. Not good at all. I had a bad day at work too because I got a headache. I felt a bit better in our women's Venla meeting (maybe it was all that pastry and candy and icecream that helped...) but in the evening my head was still aching... Tomorrow it'll be Forssa Games (WRE). I'm the 3rd starter of 106 women. It should be good preparation for Jukola. After that just relaxing and hanging out with the Austrian army team. And then on Saturday at 14:00 I shall be ready! Top 100 would be nice. | ||

Tuesday Jun 10 | ||
| Running 30:00 [2] | |
| ahr:146 max:192 | ||
| Downhills fast. The same training and route as before the sprint champs.
I felt good! :) But I was a bit drowsy because I went to bed too late last night. I was watching some orienteering videos on Youtube. I had no idea how much orienteering stuff there is there. There were lots of interesting masterpieces, but Thierry's educational videos were the best I found so far. This might become a new hobby... | ||
Monday Jun 9 | ||
| Flexi-Bar 45:00 [2] | |
| The longer routine. It felt good. | ||
