Ultra Sprint Race day at Barry Curtis Park...did 3 courses, then the top four in each grade had a final sprint off...was cool as!! never done this fast thinking, tricky orienteering before :) Loved it!

Orienteering race 6:58 [5] 1.4 km (4:59 / km)
(injured) shoes: Asics GT 2170

Map B- did ok-ish on this one...started running the wrong way to the maze, well realised as soon as i had missed the turn off, so then turned back, so missed a little bit of time there...maze not so great again...just feeling a bit slow i guess :/

Orienteering race 8:43 [5] 1.7 km (5:08 / km)
(injured) shoes: Asics GT 2170

Map C- oopsy...worst one out of all of them :S good start, then screwed up coming out of 5, then at 6 i held my SI card in, but it didnt register, so then tried again and it did...so annoying...then stuffed up going to the maze again, ran down wrong track to start off with...so stupid...Maze ok sort of? stuffed up route coming back to the maze for the 2nd time, went long way round and was so confused...:/

Final- was a mass start with the top 4, so Laura, Greta, me and Jula... had a new part to the map where there was a big circle with 3 controls in it, and we could get them in any order at that part of the course. We sorted our placings out pretty early (Laura, Greta, me then Jula)...nearly got wrong one at the tree one just before maze for the first time, then got the wrong one just before the maze for the 2nd time, realised, then had to turn back and get right one... overall incredibly fun and cant wait to do something like this again!! :D very tired now :P

went for a morning run before breaky and before i left for Auckland...went through the reserve, then to the 2nd stile up the end of the road...there were a few hills in it which was tough at that time of the morning...I put my climb in, but I am still unsure whether its legit or not :P oh well...maybe i need to 1/2 it or something?

Note

was going to train later when i was home, but was so tired and i had some study to do :(
8 AM

Orienteering 40:00 [2]
(injured) shoes: Icebugs

Putting out base stations and checking control sites...also went out again later with Duncan to put Radio controls out...this was for NISS champs...
Was impossible to run through some of the paddocks as they had super long grass, and it was really early, so it was really wet...was hard at the start as feet just froze up and were like ice blocks...very hard to run around...
2 PM

Orienteering 35:00 [2]
(injured) shoes: Icebugs

Collecting controls afterwards...had quite a few, so was tough to carry them all in the end...

Decided it was time for a rest day...felt really tired, and worked 10-5 so wasn't quite used to standing on my feet :P would be dark if i trained and would have to train alone...so maybe a good choice :P
