11 AM

Running 34:30 [3] 7.0 km (4:56 / km) +240m 4:12 / km
ahr:150 max:167 shoes: Salomon Sense Ride

Hilly jog on Stromlo. Felt good on the hills, legs seemed to have recovered from the previous weekend. Easy week done, need to get some more km's done this week.

Got home in time to spectate the SA Middle Champs. Was pretty tense waiting for ACT and Vic radio control updates and was pumped when it became clear that we'd won the day and the series! Good results from the Cockies in most categories: 2 wins, 1 second and a 3rd. The senior women's category is not looking too promising until Tara comes up though.

Running 43:15 [3] 8.1 km (5:20 / km) +90m 5:04 / km
ahr:141 max:161 shoes: Asics DynaFlyte

Black Mtn Peninsula followed by hill bounding and 1 x 15s hill sprint. Easing into those and will see if I can build up to 6-8 in the coming weeks while keeping the achilles happy.

Note
(rest day)

Unplanned rest day. Still did my achilles isotonics but not at the gym.

Running 25:45 [3] 5.2 km (4:57 / km) +80m 4:36 / km
shoes: Salomon Sense Ride

Jog around the Holden's Ck pond on the edge of Coombs for something different. Felt quite good but also a suspicion that I'd be flagging if I went for much longer or more uphill.

Note
(rest day)

Rest and travel day. Stayed in Clare on Mon night after a drive across some very barren land between Renmark and Burra. Bacon and eggs for breakfast was awesome, then took in a few wineries before heading down to Adelaide for the flight home.

7 AM

Running warm up/down 20:00 [1] 2.6 km (7:42 / km)
shoes: Salomon Sense Ride

Another early morning loosener. Achilles feeling a bit sore today. Ran along the shore of Lake Bonney for a bit - it's a big lake by Canberra standards. Apparently there was a sailing comp there this weekend but we didn't see any of it.
11 AM

Running warm up/down 11:00 [3] 1.7 km (6:28 / km)
shoes: Salomon Sense Ride

Orienteering race 17:49 [5] 4.1 km (4:21 / km)
ahr:168 max:182 shoes: Salomon Sense Ride

Aus Sprint Champs, 12th in M21E but also beaten by 9 juniors! I've definitely been heading in the directions with those results! I enjoyed the race; thought they did a good job with a simple area and had a pretty good race actually. Made 3 mistakes of less than 30 total plus missed a few route choices but I think they were marginal. I wouldn't have been happy with those mistakes a couple of years ago but today i wasn't concerned. Had difficulty keeping the pace up - my legs were really trashed from the previous 2 days - but I pushed about as hard as I could. I knew the Cockies had made some points back on the Vics yesterday and wanted to see what I could do before leaving to the others next weekend. I think we got done pretty comprehensively unfortunately and I don't think we're going to have a full team next weekend so looks like we'll concede :(
