Orienteering (Middle Prep) 36:30 [3] 6.3 km (5:48 / km) +70m 5:29 / km

The goal for this week will be to orienteer like the best orienteers would: straight and going through technical areas at high speed. This is to become for comfortable with the hardest portions of the terrain and to become more comfortable with the hardest/fastest route choices.

There were a couple of areas where I didn't hold a good compass bearing and that lead to me going to the wrong side of several green areas. In the future I will need to read the map ahead to visualize and use contours that are far ahead of me.

I also had several times where I wasn't gutsy enough to go through the green and instead went around. The farther that I ran the more I started to realize that the light/semi dark green is runnable, you just need to push hard and have the guts to run through it. In the coming days I will really work hard on keeping a straight course and working with the easier portions of green.
