Pretty tired the whole day. Planed restday.

10Mila - Leg 4 (The Long Night): We had two heavy losses before start (David Andersson - Injured and Peter Arnesson - Sick) which made us rearrange the second team quite a bit.

Leg	Length	Runner
1	14.3km	Matjaz Stanfel
2	8.2km	Anders Åkerman
3	13.9km	Martin Hederskog
4	17.5km	Jonas Bäckström
5	9.7km	Lars Åkerman
6	9.8km	Jonas Birgersson
7	6.8km	Andrej Subat
8	13.3km	Ian Lawford
9	9.0km	Håkan Eriksson
10	17.7km	Stefan Jonsson

Felt on the warm up that my legs weren't with me today. Matjaz started out really good on the first leg punching first on several controls, made a 1min error in the end and changed over to Anders as 56th, +1.35min. Anders did a solid performance caching some teams but lost some time (48th, +4.55min). Martin didn't have the best of days, lost a lot of time and places (103, +32:08). I went out a bit to fast which i had to pay for in the end + made a lot of mistakes:

#1 - 20s (Bad direction out from the startpoint)
#2 - 40s (The forest got really dense just before the control, ran to far north)
#3 - 1min (Stupid mistake, bad direction, ran to fast)
#7 - 1.30min (Followed two guys that I had caught and ran very stupid out to the bridge crossing, took the command but ran a bit wobbly in the middle).
#10 - ~4min (Underestimated how diffuse the terrain was close to the control, got totally lost and the four guys following me weren't reading the map)

Caught a big pack of ~40 runners that had passed us on #10 and decided to take the command right away. Ran in front of the group half the way to #17 where my stomach started to rebell and I had to "stop". The funny thing was that non of the 40+ runners behind me was reading the map and they all stopped when I did. Had to tell them to continue. Could still see them far away across the marsh once I was done (~1.30min), and managed to catch them and punched as #2 in the pack at #19 where they made a 20s mistake. Took the lead again from #20 and ran solid in to the finish. Got passed by a few runners on the last three easy control when i couldn't keep the speed up.

We finished at 81th place which was a new club record for the second team. Our goal of top 60 could have been within reach if me and martin would have done two normal performances :)

The first team finished as 16th after way to many mistakes, quite far from the goal of top 5.

Event: 10MILA 2012
 

Easy morning jog with Erik R, Julian and Bäckman. Felt good! Feeling ready for tomorrows task.

Ran the long open course at 10Mila with Thomas and Bäckman.

Day of from running.

Very easy trail jog with Jimmy Birklin while the others did O-intervals.

Starting to get back in to a good rhythm and flow when running. Had a good couple of days of training now, just need to keep it up!

Kuxaträffen: Very sluggish on the warm up. Ran hard until I caught Stefan (#5), then slowed down and joined him. Made a monster mistake on the long leg to #10, didn't really read the map just ran by compass. The rest was OK except for some minor mistakes.

From home -> Stångtjärn and back. Started out easy (~4.30/k) the first 6km, increased the pace to 4.00 with a further 5sec increase for every km finishing of 3.45/k. Felt good. Meet William.
