 | Running long 1:30:00 [3] 19.5 km (4:37 / km) | |

| Running in Koukkuniemi-Nuottaniemi-Tapiola area near the sea.
At some parts I was running a little faster but at some times almost therapeutically slow. |

 | Orienteering race 35:19 [4] *** 4.6 km (7:41 / km) | |
| |
| Prisma-Rastit. (H21 A2)
5 / 45 2:14 to top.
Like yesterday I had pretty good grip on my orienteering (around 1 min of mistakes, biggest individual mistake maybe 15 secs) so I must be happy with that.
My legs felt a little bit weak and "stiff" but that might be because of the heavy terrain too. All in all a race I should be happy with, got a thermos for a prize too.
I don't have any "big" competitions for a few weeks so next week I'm thinking about increasing my training volume a little.. |
Friday May 9 |
 | Jogging warm up/down 20:00 [1] 2.5 km (8:00 / km) | |
| |
| Warming up / down before and after the race |
 | Orienteering race 12:14 [5] *** 2.8 km (4:22 / km) | |
| |
| URP Sprint.
14 / 40. +1:24 to top (Föhr).
The result was not what I wished for but pretty much what I deserved. I think I made less than 10 seconds of mistakes so I must be happy with my orienteering. Running was not great but OK. I guess I'm just not a sprinter-type. |
Thursday May 8 |
 | Note | |
| (rest day) |
| I have two competitions coming, sprint on Friday and middle distance on Saturday so I decided to have a rest day today.
Still some slight slight feeling of flue but I'm able to compete and train anyway. I'm also happy that my knees have felt good during the whole "competition season" even if I had a lot of problems during the winter.
