 | Orienteering race 1:02:47 [3] 9.4 km (6:41 / km) | |
| spiked:17/20c |
| Running Tiomila's 6th leg at 6:35 in the morning. I never do these morning runs very well and this time was no exception. My legs were slow from the beginning and the technique was out of the box. I thought that with a good flow in the orienteering I could have done a good rece despite my lack of speed. Additionally, I almost broke my leg but got off with a bruised hip. The course was really dull and would have suited som 15-yera old running his first tiomila. Good for him.
Oh, the team got a dsq on the first post of the first leg! |

| First o-training, without snow, this year. I still remember how to do it although I had the ordinary difficulties in concentrating. I had thought about it, but it was also the first time this year i was running with o-shoes. Consequently I have blisters. All in all it doesn't feel good for tiomila. I could have done without the last sling of flu. |

| Spent the whole day outdoors organizing the qualification race for the European Champs and got too tired to do any training myself. I learned something new as I got to host the anti-doping bureau in its work. This sport isn't easy for them either. |

| First run outdoors in a loooong time. I tfelt surprisingly easy but I wasn't pushing. Just trying out what it is like to move those stiff legs. Nice. Tiomila, here I come! |

| Sort of recovered from last week's flu that was the strangest I've ever had. The effects - dizziness, apathy, sore muescles - were like straight out of KoL. |

| I decided you cannot run in Beijing. I went to park nearby, that looked big enougn for some decent practice, only to find out it was an amusement park. And traffic here is completely crazy.
So I went to the fitness centre in the hotel. It is well equipped with thing I have no idea what to do with. I spent a good hour trying different carovascular machines, mostly the running mat and its hill program. Well, this is probably what I will do for the rest of the week... |

After a long tourist day and including the jet-lag I got too tired to do any actual training, again. |
