Orienteering 51:55 [3]
WET at deep cove, first time trying orienteering with just tape and no brace. Felt good, but cautious on bumpy stuff... need to start trying to be more agressive. Took a bad route on the leg back towards the school at the end, knew it would be slower... but it looked more fun.

Orienteering 20:30 [4]
Orienteering at Brandywine - with Thomas following me. It was very good, as he had encouraged me to try not to stop... and him being there enforced it more. It was much wetter than the map showed, and many of the marshes were more like shallow (or not so shallow) ponds.

Biking 30:00 [2]
Biking around early in the morning Cheering Thomas and Mathias on in the half marathon.

Orienteering 1:55:00 [3]
Putting out toilet paper running ahead of Kerstin on Sumas. Timing could not have been better weather-wise. Somewhat foggy up top, and bit of sun breaking through at times... but then a few minutes after Kerstin got back the sky opened up and it torrentially rained (with some hail mixed in) and there was thunder and lightning.
Fun to be out orienteering, but ankle got a bit puffier after...

Soccer 20:00 [3]
Laid back soccer game since neither team had any subs (we ended up with one sub after a player came late). Technically played for an hour, but count 1/3. Felt I got better near the end... a bit more aggressive and actually touched the ball a bit. Both taped my ankle and used a brace - worked well (but did not enjoy pulling the tape off, guess I will have to get used to it).

Red bull divide an conquer trail run: http://www.trailhunger.com/course/43
Ankle feeling ok on the uphills, and a bit achy on the downhills.
Absolutely brutal course (other than the first bit along the powerline), also pissing with rain the entire time. Got kinda dry after, but then stood around in the rain to watch out biker come in and our paddler go off. Only women's team, so quite far behind the top teams... but we held our own.

Orienteering 32:00 [3]
Fun orienteering at Iona, took it careful... and the uneven ground made the ankle hurt more than it has when running on flat. Also, still a bit sick, but getting better.

Running 41:59 [4]
Grouse grind, started out with Thomas and Matthias... but trailed behind. Managed to keep pace though and they slowed down so as not to kill their legs on the second half so I was not too far behind.

Pretty stuffed up today, and not sure I should run... think I am glad I got out, but we will see tomorrow.

Rock climbing 1:00:00 [1]
Feeling a bit better, and nice to be outside. Went rock climbing at the smoke bluffs with Alison, Pascal and Pascal's friend John (not to be confused with my brother). Thomas sat with us on the rock part of the time too:

Running 11:17 [5] 3.2 km (3:32 / km)
Running with Thomas in the evening. He was doing 200's, so I did 400's with short rest so I would start with him. Feeling out of shape, and maybe a bit sick.

Stretching/exercises 15:00 [1]
Balance, hops on shuttle, lunges, and thera band stuff at physio
Soccer 30:00 [3]
So, I showed up at the CS team soccer game thinking maybe they would need a girl for part of the game (at least 1 female has to be on the pitch). Turns out no other women were there to play... so I played offense the whole time (1hr). To say I was playing soccer may be a bit of a stretch, but I got better when the guys started telling me what to do... and yelling at me to run at people with the ball, or stick annoyingly to the guy on the other team furthest back ;) I had the ball for maybe a total of 10s.

Lunchtime stretching / core
Running 10:00 [2]
Fast walk to warm up, some silly walks and a tiny bit of jogging to warm down.
Running 10:00 [4]
1 min on, 1 off. Started slower, the ankle was a bit stiff... but it seemed to loosen up, and it felt good to push a bit (also I think it felt more controlled with better form at higher speed).
Elliptical 30:00 [3]
On the elliptical later (looked at middle distance map for about 10 mins in middle), and a little bit of free weights after while I waited for my face to stop sweating quite so profusely...
Got hr up around 170-180 ish for the last 20 mins.

Elliptical 30:00 [3]
On the elliptical, did 20 minutes then had to let someone else have a go... so did some core/weights, then 20 minutes on the stairmaster, then the elliptical was free again. Looked at a middle relevant map on the elliptical, and a long relevant map on the stairmaster that thomas had drawn some quick courses on.

pool running 38:00 [2]
More pool running.... this time with mike, which was a welcome change to being alone. He tried to change the way I pool run to be more the way he thinks is correct. Luckily all the fast pick ups are just high knees, so it is hard to get that wrong.
pool running 10:00 [4]
10 times 1 minute pick up and 1 min rest
