Running wu/cd 9:44 [3] 1.54 km (6:19 / km)
shoes: Inov8 XTalon 212 Sep21
Orienteering training 1:21:13 [3] 9.2 km (8:50 / km)
shoes: Inov8 XTalon 212 Sep21
Better today, although could do with more hill fitness. Took a bad line into 1 and ended up a bit high on the slope, messy in the circle at 5, big banana into 6, confused by the walls at 18, and poor route choice to 21. Some good navigation on the others though, enjoyed the course and the area a lot.
A bit annoyed by the course planning though with the mens course being exactly the same as the womens until 17, meaning that we were constantly being overtaken by them. Obviously these events are just low key and trying to minimise controls, but if the courses have to be identical it wouldn’t be that hard to start the women after the men? On an area like this though it seems like it should be possible to reuse the same controls in a different order to make an equally interesting course.

Wasn’t really with it for the first two controls, and Niamh caught me 2 minutes by 2 (which we both messed up). Took off a layer on the way to 3 which helped with the mindset that this was actually a race and I should run a bit faster than a jog, then navigation was a bit better after that. A couple of small bananas in the butterfly, main problem there was being confused by number 7 being labelled as 17 on the map.

A bit windy/rainy for reps on the crags as originally planned, so flatter reps this week although quite rocky and muddy so still fairly technical.

Trying to push off a bit more for longer strides although not sure how successful this was, legs feeling good though.
