Off-road running 20:00 [3] 2.0 mi (10:00 / mi)
slept:8.0
Warm up / down
Orienteering - race 15:29 [3] 3.7 km (4:11 / km)
Wmoc sprint qual. Good course, decent enough run. Mostly good with 17secs at no 2, 13secs at another one which was partially route choice and lost 7 secs to Sarah over the last few through not fighting to the finish. I always planned to run this 90% so not bothered by this. Sarah beat me by 2 secs. Fighting to the finish is one of the main sprint focuses for woc though, so will practice this tomorrow.

Loads of sleep on the ferry. Nice!
Then run from the campsite into town to go around the sprint model. Got very disorientated out of the campsite though and ended up runing around some fields. Eventually found bad harzberg, did some controls & home.

Popped my kb dash (4 miles) cherry with 24.58. Had to stop & be caught up at hermitage to get past a professional walker of Alsatians. About 7 of them. Fought to get going again too, so think I could have gone 30 secs quicker. Fun.

Urban / sprint o from firr hill school oxgangs. Really nice course. Different from the usual stiels. Map disintegrated a bit so I got a bit lost thrashing about in some green for a minute or 3 but other than that going really well. Smooth, fast, legs felt good. Yup I am bigging myself up pre wmoc sprint. Be afraid Rollins, be very afraid!

Note
(sick)
Have a cold and feeling pretty dire so making good use of a day off work to look at the seasons o maps. I've pretty much worked out what I need to concentrate on for successful orienteering. Time to put it into practice at WMOC at the end of the week.
