Event: Tiomila 2008
Run warm up/down 10:00 [2]
Scared as hell while warming up. Didnt warm down, but really should have, mega pain in thighs, abs and butt now
Orienteering race (Tiomila) 1:05:00 [5] 8.2 km (7:56 / km)
So, so awesome to be at Tiomila. I ran the last leg, no splits! Started out alone then caught a huge pack somehow and led them to number one. It was very scary!! Then drifted off the pack (they were running way faster than I was comfortable with and I got into major oxygen debt and did dumb things) and did the last 3 controls alone. Heaps of pain and suffering. Another huge learning experiance for me!
It was such a beautiful day, and great to just be able to watch the men race all night with GPS tracking and camera controls. Leksand's guys were doing really well, in the lead pack until the last leg where we they dropped from 5th to 16th.

Orienteering 48:00 [3]
Training near Rättvik. Ran memory course and then a normal one. Nice open forest for running in, with some interesting contour detail. Didnt run too hard and was orienteering really well, concentration was good. Funny how orienteering goes so much better for me when Im training. I think I have to find the right state of mind for when I race. I know I'm fit enough, and I know I can orienteer, just got to work out how to do it on the day.

Orienteering 1:15:00 [3]
Went for a run on an old course from home. Also did some compass work up on top in some denser trees, this seems to be what Im really struggling with at the moment. Beautiful day for a run, cant believe it was so cold here 2 weeks a go.
Note
Also got results from blood test last week, iron levels are a little low. Per suggests blood pudding everyday....I might ask the doc for something else.

Rode to Djura. Beautiful ride, feeling good after yesterday. I already feel like its going to be really hard to leave this place.
Orienteering 45:00 [3]
Collecting some controls from a training before I got here. Great terrain. Took it real easy, just enjoying being out in the forest.
