Running 30:00 [3] 5.0 km (6:00 / km) +100m 5:27 / km

In Budapest. My favorite way to explore a new city is with a 30-40 minute run. I saw a big hill, and hills are there to be climbed, so I climbed it. It turns out it was Gillért Hill and had some really beautiful views.

And the wheels came off for this one in Bócsa. I just couldn't hold a bearing, even in open forest. My compass was acting very strange, but I could have read the terrain more. At any rate, it's been a long year. I need a break from reading maps. I'll come back, but I need something else for a bit.

Rough Translation of some good advice received in Spain.

TEN BASIC MENTAL ASPECTS OF ORIENTEERING
1. Your SELF-ESTEEM does not matter to others, only your results. Value your effort whenever you do things well and whatever the result may be.
2. If you make a MISTAKE of any type, it is not anyone else’s fault, only yours. Learn from them and apply what you have learned.
3. FOCUS ON THE TASK AT HAND, not on the result. If you improve these tasks, the results will come by themselves.
4. The relationship between training and results is not always fair. GET USED TO IT.
5. DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE anyone. Everyone can beat you.
6. If you always do the same thing, you will make the same mistakes. DO NOT STOP LEARNING, EVEN WHEN YOU WIN.
7. Always do your own orienteering in races. DO NOT THINK ABOUT OTHERS.
8. You are the one who best knows how to do your best. SELF-CONFIDENCE.
9. You must always THINK POSITIVELY.
10. Have fun training and competing. MOTIVATION is fundamental.
