Running warm up/down 25:00 [1]
Warm up and some jog down in a wonderfully scenic sunny and warm Vancouver day. Felt surprisingly unsore.
C • Nice 2
Orienteering race 16:00 [4]
Race, Cleveland Dam. Really good. Pushed as hard as I could all the way. Went on wrong side of the hill to 9th; +5 sec. Was really concentrated and ran smoothly all the way.
Running warm up/down 20:00 [1]
Warm up with lots of clothes. Tried not to think about my very fast chaser, but instead prepare myself to orienteer safe and good.
Running 17:00 [4]
Chase start, Princess Park. Started out a little bit unsmooth, but no big mistakes. Then came into the flow and pushed as hard as I could. Another good race :-) Then the day went on and became a great birthday party. Wonderful people, thank you everybody! I might take an easy day Monday.

Running warm up/down 15:00 [1]
Run to the start of the Otervals.
Orienteering intervals 20:00 [4]
Otervals with crème de la crème of North American orienteering. In Downtown Vancouver, Financial District. With snow covered mountains making a perfect frame. Ran like a madman, but all the others did as well. Had an intense fight with Mr. Nipen for the victory in the final interval, and lost it...

Running warm up/down 5:00 [1]
Some sort of activity to stay warm till the next race.
Orienteering race 14:00 [4]
Sprint race in Lost Lagoon, with a box. Mass start, got that taste of blood in my mouth right from the start, as a tried not to let Mr. Pither go. He still got 25 seconds on me at the last control, and then outran me completely to the finish. I have to start making better route choices. But it still was quite a good race, and wonderful training!
Orienteering race 10:00 [4]
Start training, 3rd high intensity training before lunch. Ran with some fast guys, and tried not to slow them down.
Pretty amazing training. 11 business card sized maps, with a start and a first control, stapled together. Then start at the top and work your way through. Still in Downtown.

Jogging kind of thing.
Running warm up/down 25:00 [1]
Quite a long warm up near Granville Island. Kind of sore kind of thing, but not like it hurts or anything.
Orienteering race 15:00 [4]
Sprint race, individual start. Started of great, good flow and pace. Then made a 1.10 minutes mistake on the 10th control, which is kind of embarassing. Finished with style anyway. Patrick made his 4th victory of the weekend. I am impressed.
Running warm up/down 15:00 [1]
