 | Running race 46:29 [3] 10 km (4:39 / km) vdot: 43.6 | |
| |
| Canada Fun Run 10km (instead of 5km which I usually do :D)
It was gooood! I didn't get a stitch aand my shoulder didn't hurt. Think I could've gone out harder but I wanted to be careful because I haven't done a race this long before. 21st woman in the 10km which was pretty cool, but I kept overtaking people in the last couple of km so I could have done better if I hadn't gone so slowly at the start. |

| Just a few minutes beforehand and a bit longer afterwards. Did high knees and stuff with bonnie. Oh and then we stretched against this metal bar thing that was on the bike path next to the road because it was sorta bent and we were making it straight again. Well we were pretending to make it straight again.. It was funn :P |

| Orienteering race (Red Hill North) 47:13 [3] 5 km (9:27 / km) | |
| |
| Pretty bad actually. Lost a few minutes on the first control and then stuffed around in or near the control circle on a few others when I knew I was around the right spot but couldn't find the control. Don't think I've orienteered at Red Hill before which is very unusual for a Saturday event, and good I guess too coz I couldn't just remember places from before. My tights got caught when I was climbing a fence and then I had to hold myself up on the fencepole to get the free, which was reeeally painful. My hand has definitely suffered more damage than the fence aand my tights.
Generally felt reeally sloooow :( |

| Running 32:00 [3] | |

| Running in the dark again ... not quite as fun as yesterday but i think that was just a weird fluke that'll never happen again. Same kinda thing though just not at all planned. There isn't really a whole lot you can do in the dark.
Meanwhile, I'm still searching for the perfect hill for intervals... |

| Running 40:00 [3] | |
| |
| running in the dark and slightly rainy evening after musical rehearsal. Felt really good for some reason, possibly just because I was so happy to be out of our stuffy school hall. Chose an approximate route to go on an old orienteering map of campbell that went up quite a few hills and tried to maintain speed going up them. |

| Running (Blue Lightning) 50:00 [3] | |
| |
| Training was around tracks at remembrance park, with a few hills i found pretty hard. Managed to run all the way to the top of the biggest hill which was good. Ran 10 mins to get there from home, then started pretty quickly and ran for almost 40 mins with a couple of short stops. Then straight off to the X-country meeting!
I have to say the school sport cross country team is not being organised neearly as well as the orienteering team always is by valerie. We got there and there were ppl trying on the uniform and people sitting around looking confused and people asking about forms or handing forms in etc.
Then after a while they said some stuff, and gave you an information sheet thing, which was EXTREMELY vague - like they don't know where we're staying or anything; costs etc. and then they said they didn't have the race uniform to try on, so we might have to go to higgins or something later??? higgins? where the hell is that!? lol anyway, then this woman turned up with the uniforms to try on for some reason, and then noone knew whatt to try on, because there were two types of shorts as well as little lycra running undies, and then there were guy singlets, girl singlets and crop top things. and so nooone knew what people usually wore or anything. it was craaazy. anyway i think we ended up working out what girls usually wear etc. so hopefully it'll be ok. But still...
Thankgod for vazdog! |
