| TNT intervals with the GHO crew. Long and short route interval route with rest in between. Last 10min sprinting at a 5. Hope to improve over the course of the winter. Felt better sprinting than the actual intervals. |

| Bechtel Park THOMASS. Started off really bad on the urban part putting me 3-5min down from the pack due to being caught off guard from the start. Once in the woods mischecked a control (happened to be part of the last map) and put me down even further. Little mistakes added up which is disappointing. Tried to fight back from this but everyone was long gone in my category. Just wasn't a good orienteering day in general but had fun. |

| Ancaster Community to DV Main loop around and back. Thought it would have taken longer than 60min but must have been running faster than expected. Feel a little dehydrated...don't think i've been drinking enough lately. |

| Had fun the first time around so i decided to do some control pick up from the Raid the Hammer. Calves felt alright, not too sore but the legs in general are still fatigued. Lots of run and walk (up the hills!) orienteering today, and the 1 felt like a 3. Although i can't complain, being out at this time of the year is gorgeous and the A+ weather for November can't be passed up being indoors! |

| Raid the Hammer. Lot of hills, lots of fun, and lots of post race leg pains! Great course design by the Hammer, it had me fighting through the pain in the last few sections. Happy with the performance and had a blast with the Hendersons. Yes i do agree with Dave - a damn good orienteerer which helped us place well in the end! Learned a lot in those 4hrs or so. |

| DV trail/woods run. Loosing up the legs with a little cross-training action. Felt a little sluggish out there, but haven't done anything for a few days leading to this. Really just wanted to break in the new shoes a little before Sunday. |
Sunday Nov 7 |

| DV valley main loop - Spencer Creek trai with the Hendersonsl. Probably will feel it tomorrow with all the training in the past few days. Although i felt pretty relaxed and good out there. Gorgeous weather, even better than yesterday if you can believe it! |

| MTB DV. Really killer head wind going west. Tough biking up the rail trail to the trail centre. Felt pretty good considering i haven't biked for quite awhile. Wanted to switch it up a bit and not kill the knees before next weekend. |

| Next big run with the Hendersons this Sunday. Peak-Main loop run if the weather holds up. Should be a good 2hr run or so. |

| Chedoke orienteering. Was a fun course especially at nite! Had some trouble with 10 and 6 (tough to judge at nite) and had to back track for 2 because i didn't see it by the time i got to 3. The other controls in the woods weren't too bad since many people were there at that time narrowing the area down a bit. Flew on the flat sections and felt real good today. |
