Looked at splits from yesterday. Consistent but not too fast, feel bad for Christine who ran much faster but lost a few seconds here and there to finish 2 seconds behind me. Also we had loads of legs the same as the A final and i was SO slow compared to the top girls. So if i want to actually be a properly good orienteer i need to be a much faster runner. Hope training hard can make up for lack of natural speed!
7 AM
Aquarunning - hard (fartlek) 1:10:00 [3]
(injured)
Rest day for shins. Even though i can't get faster overnight, and it's not recommended to train impulsively, i ended up taking this morning's training quite hard. But enjoyed it, its good to know i can train a bit harder now before breakfast without getting faint like i used to :-) Kind of intervals but using lengths not time and with longish rests.
5 PM
Alternative training 1:02:00 [1]

Still feeling sleepy after an afternoon of catching up on sleep, so this was the easy training i should have done this morning. such a nice day, i couldn't face being indoors, so took my squeaky wreck of a bike for a ride. Stopped watch on the downhills. Would still much rather be running and not sure if this was useful training but was quite nice anyway :-)

B final. So not really nervous, but still not feeling too fast. so i guess i'm just unfit! but no mistakes today, maybe some bad routes but will have to look at the splits for that.

SM Sprint heat. Sooo nervous before the start, really not used to having to do the quarantine thing, it was only just on the startline i realised it wasn't actually such an important race for me. i think the nerves made my legs feel empty, feeling slow, but was clean until the penultimate control, where i lost all my concentration and lost about 40s. missed the final by about 20s which was so annoying but nice to do a race like this as practice and nce to run nrealy all of it clean, so different to last weekend! So B final early tomorrow but still looking forwards to running round the town, looks really interesting sprint terrain :-)

More needles. The inflammation was 80% reduced before this treatment so hopefully that is the last that my shin will need. Might need another session for my ankle though, which was still feeling like 'old chewing gum'. Can't say enough how happy i am with this, i never thought anything would be this effective after so long injured! :-D
2 PM
Aquarunning - easy 35:00 [1]
(injured)
An almost-rest day today, a bit tired from the needles and also just from training. Probs should have expected doing gym stuff and then first running intervals in ages on the same day to be quite tough!

Quads sore today! Linne training at Östuna. Started real slowly, it was tough to run at all, but tbh ended up going a bit more than easy pace as i found myself running along with some of the guys (Loefaas' 'really easy pace' is not so easy for me!). Really interesting to see the routes they picked through the terrain, need to practice this but i guess it comes with experience. Not v confident in my orienteering at the start and when i was on my own, but running about the same pace as my mapreading most of the time. Missed a bit on 1 and 2 and a blonde moment to the finish, but other than that just a bit hesitant. So quite happy :-)

Thought about going early but couldn't face working out to 'lugna favoriter' again. 9am was 80s cheese time instead, much better - got both 'Eye of the Tiger' and 'Livin on a Prayer' :-D and able to forget about my shin completely on all the hops and jumps.

Orienteering - hard intervals 25:00 [4]

Linne sprint training (with the other girls). 4 intervals, with a mass start for each one. Legs so heavy after this morning, no real kick and quite tired, but orienteering well today, the time i lost from being a bit slow was made up by looking ahead and getting the best lines a lot of the time. really fun, some nice tricky bits. good confidence boost! :-)
last hard training day for a bit, lots of travelling and racing coming up, exciting but tiring, so best not to go into it already tired.
