Note
And so 2010 draws to a close.
It has been a pretty successful year for me. With no major injuries for the first years since 2007, I was able to complete more training than any other year since I started logging on AttackPoint in mid 2006.
Here are my end of year totals:
Distance: 3887kms with 37km climb
Time: 348 hrs
Sessions: 362 (285 running, 77 orienteering)
Without injuries, my session quality has also improved, leading to a number of PBs on the track/road.
10km Sandown - 35:40 May 2010
3000m Olympic Park - 9:57 Dec 2010
2000m Olympic Park - 6:28 Nov 2010
4km Romsey - 12:48 Nov 2010
and 6 sub 13 minute Tans. The only disappointment was not getting under 12:57 for the Tan. I peaked for the Australian and Victorian Orienteering Champs, and racing hard mid week didn't appeal to me in those weeks.
It was also one of my most successful elite orienteering seasons. I didn't run any M35 races, although it was my second year out of the official elite ages.
My highlights were:
1st Victorian Championships Long Distance M21E
4th Australian Championships Sprint Distance M21E
6th Australian Championships Long Distance M21E
4th Easter Prologue Sprint Distance M21E
5th WOC Trial Sprint Distance M21E
3rd Victorian Championships Sprint Distance M21E
3rd Victorian Championships Middle Distance M21E
1st Victorian Championships Relay Open
3rd Australian Championships Relay M21E
1st Victorian Orienteering State Series
