Circuits (Weights) 45:00 [4]
Was a weights session this week
For warm up did a bit of running
Then it was a weights session, so not as tiring as aerobic, but still good, was quite tired tho. But chatted a bit with Bex and took my mind off of it.
Then did sit ups and one where we took a weight bar on every other sit up
Then we had to leave early cos it was Mikes (my coaches) birthday and they were giving him a present at tring and we went to give him a card.

PE (Netball) 1:00:00 [3]
Last netball training of this year, we started doing this passing drill in teams of 7, and then tag netball, and i was the last person in my team to not be tagged :) but it was v tiring. Then for the rest of the lesson we played a game and i got to be WA so it was good. But the other team won by 1point in the last like 2 mins, which was a bit rubbish but oh well. And i was pretty tired from the weekend.

Orienteering race (Spring Cup Relay) 36:26 [4] 4.4 km (8:17 / km)
This was better than yesterdays run, I always do better on relays!
Didn't feel physically tired from yesters but didn't sleep well.
4.Had to find an indistinct path and was just the wrong side of it so went all the way put to the other veg boundary and had to come back in to it again.
6.Went round the hill the wrong way so wasted time cos it was a v. short leg.
Then just a few small things weren't perfect but it was a good run.
Did the second fastest time on that leg :) and gained my team 4 places.
Bit disappointed I didn't go onto the sand dunes though.

Orienteering race (Spring Cup) 45:15 [4] 5.0 km (9:03 / km)
I had an okay run today, no proper major mistakes but from mistakes i lost about 5 mins. Also maybe could have run a bit faster, but it was a v quick area.
1 started quick but went in a path early
2 never found the indistinct path and really didn't work-lost about 3 1/2 mins on this leg
7 was a bit slow as got dragged down the hill and didnt want to go in OOB
8 there was an extra veg boundary so got a bit confused and started looking too early
Apart from that had pretty average legs, didn't feel any where particularly good, but not too bad. It was the experience that counts! And at the start felt v odd cos was by myself surrounded by people who were speaking danish! And you get started every minute which was odd for me.

PE (Rounders) 45:00 [2]
Did rounders again, but this time for the most of the lesson we did a batting drill thing. Where you got like 5 bats and then swapped round, so you spent most time fielding.
Circuits (Aerobic) 1:00:00 [4]
Was an aerobic session again. For the warm up we did running around and the boxing thing.
Then did half the aerobic circuit then this thing where you did 10 press ups ran and did 10 burpees then ran and did 10 squat thrusts, there was a bit of a rest and did it again- on all we did this 4 times. then back and finished the rest of the circuit.
Then did the normal sit ups and stretching etc

PE (Rounders) 45:00 [2]
Just played a game in rounders, managed to score some half rounders-i can never hit it far enough for a full rounder! and she made us do all positions so i had to bowl- and i did like 15 no balls-it was really embarassing!
PE (Netball) 1:00:00 [3]
Did circuits in netball, so half of them were ball skills (passing shooting etc) and then the other half was shuttle runs and press up etc. it was really hard going and at the end we did some leg toning things, they made my leg ache!

Orienteering (Wendover) 1:05:00 [4] 6.3 km (10:19 / km) +275m 8:28 / km
did the wendover event from saturday, it was really tough! i took some odd route choices, i think because I was tired.
not sure of the exact time because forgot to start the timer, and at number 1 i got to the right spot but didn't think it was right so spent a while looking around for it, but then dad saw the tape from yesterday.

Note
Went to see Austin again (gait analysis man) so I got videoed running and walking on the treadmill, we looked at these and also the ones from October,i am much improved :)
Also he gave me some new/altered exercises. First with my dips i now have to try them on a wobble board or similar, or maybe with heavier weights. And off a step too. Then I have to clam too, with stretchy elastic for resistance.

Run 32:15 [3] 5.46 km (5:54 / km)
Went on a run with my Bex took a map of Kyloe to get to know it and to do some visualisation practice.
With the map used the W21 course from when BOC was there. We alternated legs with one person looking at leg and visualising how we would carry out the leg, then handing the map to the other person and describing exactly how we would do it. Then having a bit of a discussion if there was another way of doing it and best attack point etc. Did 17 controls.
Although it was a slow-ish run for Bex found it quite hard as my body was tired from sat and also I still felt a bit ill.

Orienteering (SEJS) 30:00 [3] 2.5 km (12:00 / km)
Long-Short
Had Helen as my coach today. So I had to do this map-memory but had to do like 2 legs at a time which I found very hard. Also forgot to memorise the other leg sometimes! I was very hesitant as I reached the control circle as I was never quite sure what to expect.

Visualisation
Was allowed my map this time :) I had to visualise the control circle before to help me be less hesitant. Went better than long-short and I was more confidant in myself.

Orienteering race (British Relays) 28:18 [3] 3.5 km (8:05 / km)
Went much better than yesterday.
1)Started very confident knowing I had people to overtake, went well
2)Was a bit right of control but it was alright because I knew that I was right
8)Bit hesitant but kept going and it was alright
9)Worst leg. It was in the green and I went in about the right time-a bit early. Got stuck in green and couldn't find control so came back out and round and found it.
11)Came off path before I should have and got stuck in a bit of green
12)Saw a control before it which put me off, got confused and had to stop to reassure myself. Was nearer assembly than I thought.
2 Positives:
1)Was quickest to alot my legs-think this was due to confidence and planning ahead
2)Managed to overtake everyone on my course on it and didn't let them put me off.
