| |
| Put out most of the controls for my event tomorrow at Beaver lake. Saw some sandhill cranes, an owl, and some deer. I forgot all my shoes except for my sandals so I had to do this in my mother's wellies :), but it meant my feet stayed dry. |
Wednesday Jun 21 |
| Orienteering (control placing/pickup) 1:00:00 [2] *** | |
| |
| Set out the controls for course 1 and 2, went to pick them up and I came across a large group that had started on course 1 right at 8 oclock urgg! so I had to reset them again! |
| Note | |
| |
| We had the Norwegian junior national coach in Calgary this past week so he set up some orienteering games for our juniors tonight instead of the regular coaching. We did orienteering bingo and "find the map symbol" game, I think the kids really liked it we should do more things like that.
Dougal and I also had an info session about JWOC terrain and how to train for orienteering with the coach. Very informative and motivating, and now i've got all the inside scoop on lithuanian terrain! (like light green will most likely be faster running than the white) |

| Orienteering (Team Trials) 1:54:36 [4] ***** 9.1 km (12:36 / km) +220m 11:14 / km | |
| spiked:8/16c |
| Well... lets just say it was my worst performance ever, and I still managed to come in .. 4th? was it.
Mistake on #1 then huge mistake on #2, tiny one on #3, one on #4, 5 was good, 6 was good, overshot #7, undershot #8, 9 was good, undershot #10, by that time I gave up route choice and began straight-lining it at a jog and spiked the rest. Total mistakes: ~30min
My mind was else where today, like on my stomac, and with an 11am start I got very hungry at about # 5, I should have eaten more this morning, or at least closer to the start time.
the control circle at #1 covered a hill or a depression that would have been useful, (this is not a complaint, it was barebones afterall) |
