Orienteering - training 50:18 [3] 4.8 mi (10:29 / mi)
Course with 220m climb, in the middle / relay adjacent forest. A bit long for our middle qual (3.6/110m, final 5k/195m) but I wanted some hills. Cut down on the green today, and the course was in terrain which is hopefully more like what we will get in the races. Nice nice nice! I was cruising smoothly and with few mistakes. Feeling strong in the rough stuff, and my Achilles behaved itself. Even hector had to say he had a stick in his eye to explain why i beat him to sone controls...
For the races here I will focus on the following:
Plan
Direction out of the control
Compass
If I get those three right I should do ok. I have no idea how fast I am running just now, so have no expectations, but if I stick to the above I should qualify
and hopefully get too 30 regardless of pace and I should be happy with that.
