	(rest day)
	yah! a complete rest day. i like these days :D also this morning i went to a qld women in sport breakfast for all the rising stars from last years awards night. This was a chance to meet our new mentors that we will be emailing over the next year. My mentor is Vicki Wilson and i showed her some orienteering maps and she sprung at the idea of sending her firebirds on a orienteering course around st peters. So she is super keen now haha. Also i met Susie O'Neil and she thought orienteering was super cool!

Tuesday May 13
	run warm up/down 10:00 [2]


	run 20:00 [4]

	terrain run while map memory. had to memorise a short D55 course from oringen in DALARNA 1999. and tell clive where i would go by memory when i got back
	orienteering intervals 30:00 [5]

	did 12 short 300m courses where i had to know the direction of the control and which way to exit really fast. Was really good and i nailed everyone of them. My SI punching is pretty shotty though but clive helped with si position and it seems to be better now... or i was concentratiing more.
Monday May 12
	run 18:30 [3]

	recovery run from yesterday. good start to an easy week mmm
	strength and conditioning 15:30 [2]


Sunday May 11
	orienteering 30:00 [3]

	cascades- training day 2. While waiting for anna to put controls out rach, krys and i went in did a map memory course. i went and put out two controls came back and drew the map from memory while krys and rach went to run the course. did this twice
	orienteering 47:30 [3]

	w21e course from the aus middle distance champs 2004 was doing ok until 5 where i got sidetracked by bare rock and ended up way off and then really couldnt find 5 well. same happened for 7 wasted 10mins all up
	orienteering 37:47 [4]

	Since we did the course so badly anna made us go out and do the w21e course again. Still had to think really hard about where i was and stuff so it really didnt make much of a difference navigationlly but running was way better. Figured out paths and tracks between controls and my control flow was excellent. if i had run this one back in 2004 i would have come 8th....but cascades is totally overgrown now so you know..

	C • but I don't think those gir... 2
Saturday May 10
	orienteering (training day 1) 23:00 [3]

	short compass course at the amiens, the basic idea was to try and stay on a straight line since all controls were on track junctions. i spiked 4 fairly well but 2 were really bad.
	orienteering 43:00 [3]

	speed control exercise. really long fast legs with really intricate detail around the control circle. found them all fine and my speed was pretty good. good fun!
	orienteering 56:00 [4]

	control picking/ control flow exercise. Really good, the first bit was pretty shitty running but the end of the course was really fun. had a bit of trouble on one where i just could not find the damn rock. this was due to my lack of concentration and shitty compass bearing yah!
