Running warm up/down 8:00 [3]
Orienteering race (Sprint Canberra race 5) 23:58 [3]
Bit of a shocker of a way to finish the races... Lost alot of time in the beginning with mistakes and i lost all urgency towards the end. Overall it was a super fun camp and super fun races, but i'm pretty bummed about how i went. I know i hadn't done alot of speed work but i didn't quite realise how crazy far behind i'd be! And i dont think a whole lot of how I was feeling can be blamed on jetlag!

Orienteering race (Sprint Canberra race 3) 25:51 [3]
Not too bad until I slipped into a pit of blackberry bushes and had to get pulled out. Lost a solid 1:30-2minutes which was super super super frustrating! I guess it's lucky i was in the mass start though because if nobody else was around it could've been a while longer... Really fun sprint though! I just need to read the fine details more and be a bit more disciplined with my direction

Running warm up/down 12:00 [3]
Orienteering race (Sprint Canberra race 4) 20:47 [3]
Felt best about this urban sprint compared to the others this week. Really concentrated on my planning and it went alright. Slowed alooooott in the second half though, it's bad :|

Running 38:00 [3]
Warm up.
3km time trial with a twist, relatively ok with but i struggled to push harder.
Then a little jogging and the PISTE test which i thought was really fun. 400m sprint while remembering where 4 controls were on a map with 4 controls and then you had to draw the controls on a blank map after.
Warm down.

Orienteering race (Sprint Canberra race 2) 18:45 [3]
Started off navigating ok but i just did not feel like i was in control at all when we got into super tricky bits. Got really exhausted by the end too.

Running 26:08 [3]
Warm up, 3km time trial and warm down. Didn't really have any clue what so ever what i should expect to run this in but kinda hoped for a bit faster still. Think i started off a bit too slow and didn't have the speed to make up time. Plus i could taste breakfast. And i had 4 hrs sleep the night before. Plenty of chance to improve i guess!
5 PM
Running warm up/down 21:00 [3]
Orienteering (Sprint Canberra race 1) 19:49 [3]
A bit sloppy with my navigation for the whole race and i just had no energy. The heat plus the severe lack of sleep the night before didn't leave me feeling very good!

Running 33:11 [3]
Jog with dad from home. Actually found it noticeably harder to breathe from the hot, humid air. Legs felt a lot better today but it was warm and super uncomfortable. Shorter than planned but I wanted to ease into the acclimatising for at least one day before camp!

Note
(rest day)
Home at 2am, awake and unpacking my bags at 7 because I couldn't sleep. Feeling pretty tired and my legs felt super lethargic and fat all day. Actually makes me feel a little sick thinking about how many layers I was running in in Sweden when it's so hot here!!
