Event: Australian Orienteering Carnival 2017

Orienteering race (Aus champs sprint (4th)) 16:45 [5] 4.1 km (4:05 / km) +30m 3:56 / km
shoes: Saucony Endorphin Racer

Wow. Made a hash of this sprint, was leading (2nd in mens elite too) for the first few controls. Then I started suffering (or rather, letting myself suffer) with the dry air. Then made some mistakes and poor decisions. Lost 30-40sec through largely little silly things that kept adding up, and I am questioning my mental/emotional performance (did I push my limits? no) A trend across every major sprint this year unfortunately for myself, need to get confidence and agression back up over the summer.

Running warm up/down 16:00 [1] 3.0 km (5:20 / km)
shoes: Saucony Endorphin Racer

Aus Sprint Champs Course 1 - Splits

Running (Mt panorama) 34:31 [1] 6.5 km (5:19 / km) +192m 4:38 / km
shoes: Saucony Type A6

Suprisingly steep climb up the mt going the wrong way. Descent was beautiful, dropped 95m over 1km alone and could just sit back spinning the wheels. I can run downhills really well at the moment, easily dropped the other guys even at a really easy effort.

Running (Track) 16:00 [2] 3.8 km (4:13 / km) +40m 4:00 / km
shoes: Saucony Endorphin Racer

Meeting my new coach. Did some strides, a mile with 100m on, 100 off. Ran comfortable 14s but my head was elsewhere. Coach seems pretty chill, will have a good chat after Australia. Out to the airport tomorrow at 6, getting excited!

Running 1:04:45 [1] 12.4 km (5:13 / km) +272m 4:42 / km
shoes: Saucony Type A6

Jogged over to long bay and over the hills. Google maps lied about the distance, but with the tracks slipping over the cliffs not sure I would have got much further anyway.. looked like a closure in the distance :(

Note

Feeling good now, the cold was a good chance for a timely rest. Nice to be able to creep the kms up and feel like I'm having a restful week. Looking forward to some solid performances at Aus champs - my training after Europe has gone nicely.
