My legs were still a little tired but otherwise it felt OK. After the training I had a light feeling of sore throat. I have to take the weekend a little easier because I don't want to get sick now. | ||
Thursday Jun 5 | ||
| Note | |
| (rest day) | ||
| I was still very tired from yesterday's qualification race so I took a rest day.
I was selected to the first team after all and will be running on the second leg. We have two very equal teams that can both achieve very respectable positions in Jukola. | ||

| Orienteering race 1:09:00 [5] 8.1 km (8:31 / km) | |
| Our team's Jukola qualification race. 7/11 +6:29
Bad race again. I was feeling very tired physically and made a lot of big mistakes (+6 minutes). The tiredness may lead from Sunday's sprint competition and allergy but I still should be able to do better, especially orienteering-wise. I simply have to get my orienteering back on track if I want to do anything good in competitions, now 4 of my last 5 competitions have been bad orienteering. I just have to find the calmness and self-confidence I had in my orienteering in the beginning of the season.. I'm best ranked of our Finnish orienteerers at the moment but I'm still pretty sure I'm not running in our first team in Jukola because of this bad qualification race. The differences are so small in our team that qualification races usually have a big meaning when selecting the team. If I'm in the second team I'll probably run three competitions next week, (Middle distance regional champs, Forssa Games and Jukola) and after that start my "PK-season" (basic fitness) of summer. I have resigned from my current job at a financing company and will start working in my own company (with 3 friends) after Jukola. I am naive in a sense that I hope it means I can train better because I should be able to arrange my own time more freely. Time will tell.. | ||
