MTB Orienteering race (Sprint) 18:58 [5]** 5 km (3:48 / km)
Sprint course at Nowra for nsw mtbo champs. won the M16, but i was the only one in it. came second on my course which was the short one, so pretty happy. had a good ride.
MTB Orienteering (Control collection) 30:00 [3]**
went out afterwards to collect some controls. probably did more riding here then i did in the actual course

Friday Jul 25

Exercise bike 20:00 [5]
went to the gym in my dads apartment complex. got on the bike there and put in 20 mins on the hilliest course. really hard, absolutely buggered by end. pushed quite hard.
Running 5:00 [4]1 km (5:00 / km)
run on treadmill now, had speed on 12km/h, got bored after 5 mins
Gym (weights) 5:00 [3]
did some bench presses, again got bored quickly. arm strength isn't great either
Swimming 15:00 [3]
did some laps to warm down a bit, some fast ones, some slow ones, some really slow ones....

Thursday Jul 24

Note
(rest day)
so i had a rest day, because i wanted to rest my knee and it was raining anyway. yep i'm soft but i don't care.
Oh and today we watched this dvd in SLR on orienteering. i thought it was ok but it was repetitive and i cringed in some places at the explanations, like they were good but i thought they made them slightly more complicated then they actually were. funny though.
C • SLR 12

Wednesday Jul 23

Running 40:55 [4]9 km (4:33 / km)
ok so i went for a longer run, which turned out to be 2 laps of the 4.5 k course i had from yesterday. didn't go as hard, did 20mins for first lap and 20mins 55 secs for the second. afternoon tea was sitting a bit heavy in stomach but that was ok. knee still clicking and even hurt a little bit, may rest tommorow because of this.
C • that doesnt sound good :( 2
Warm up/ down (Stretching/ jog) 20:00 [1]
did a bit of a jog and a stretch before leaving, and a stretch when i got back. 10 mins each.

Tuesday Jul 22

Running 18:17 [5]4.5 km (4:04 / km)
ran out of time so only short run today. but short run was good. went about as hard as i can go, pretty happy with time. althogh have discovered that my left knee, that began to hurt at the end of the camp, clicks when i run. don't think that is good. but oh well. i finish early tommorrow so i might get a longer slower run tommorow.
C • Hmmm. 10
Warm up/ down (Stretching) 10:00 [1]
okay so i skipped my warm up, because daylight was fading fast, had a nice stretch when i got back though

Monday Jul 21

Note
(rest day)
Feel funny putting this down as a rest day, as i have a suspiscion that my training will drop off with school going back. Going to attempt to do regular runs but not sure with time restraints. eg going to school in newcastle and living in maitland makes things difficult.
Went for a walk today and nearly got blown over by the wind. its pretty intense right now.
oh and cold is all but gone. yay
C • Maybe 12
C • wat school do u go to? 11

Sunday Jul 20

Running 46:00 [3]6.7 km (6:52 / km)
(sick)
Really unhappy with this run, went out too hard, didn't warm up so i was really stiff, knee was hurting, had a massive stitch for ages and it was right when i would have liked lunch, which meant i had no energy in the tank. almost over my cold, but still a bit blocked up and i also felt really light headed whilst running.
As a result of all these i walked a lot and attempted to run other parts, but having no energy really didn't help.
C • awww :( 4
