Note
(sick)

Went to the physio to sort out my hip pain. She thinks it's just a really tight hip flexor which would explain why orienteering made it feel worse. Got some dry needling and I shall try more foam rolling etc. Still sick.

Running 46:07 [3] 10.22 km (4:31 / km)
(sick) shoes: Nike Pegasus 33

Yeh my sore throat is clearly a symptom of something greater. I was running at a fairly casual pace today and my head was spinning and I had to stop at one point to get my heart-rate down. Ugh.. was pumped to have a good week.

Note

I've volunteered to be the 90 minute pacer for the half marathon this weekend. Hopefully I don't need to use the facilities like I did in my last half marathon. Advantage is I don't have to pay any entry and I don't have to taper if I'm not racing. Also it's not a particularly fast course (it's actually really hilly and has lots of 180 degree turns so it's pretty slow) so I'm not that bothered by not racing it.

Running long 1:31:40 [3] 20.6 km (4:27 / km) +238m 4:12 / km
shoes: Nike Elite 9

Had a little bit of a sore throat today so I decided to just go for a longish run instead of doing a workout session. An incredible amount of people out running today no doubt in preparation for the fun runs in newcastle this weekend. Not sure what people think a week of preparation is going to do other than possibly check whether their running shoes fit, but good on them.

Running 24:24 [3] 5.4 km (4:31 / km) +50m 4:19 / km
shoes: Nike Pegasus 33

Ran to get Macey's car from Braddon. Had breakfast at a trendy cafe. My smoothy had oats in it. The barrista had a beard and glasses and a beanie. Very non-conformist

Orienteering race (NOL Canberra middle) 50:25 [5] 6.8 km (7:25 / km) +240m 6:18 / km
shoes: Salomon Fel-Cross 3 July

Yeh a bit sloppy and my ability to run up hills is hugely lacking. Considering I've done 0 hill work it's not a huge surprise. Just rushing my route choices and nav a bit which cost me time. But from where I was last year at Easter I've improved big time. Only a few mins off the big boys today and there's still glaring areas of improvement left untapped. (Also my o-shoes are getting thrown out as soon as finance permits, they're awful).

Running warm up/down 10:00 [3] 1.3 km (7:42 / km) +130m 5:08 / km
shoes: Salomon Fel-Cross 3 July

The climb to the start!
