Training Log Archive: biddy

Had a real focused plan today. My mind was totally with it. Goals were to read my map at the start triangle, attackpoints and flow. I did this for every single control and never lost contract with my map. Legs might have let me down a bit but I am really happy. Also didnt see a soul on my course which was a bit lonely

Day 1 Course 2 - Splits

Event: Easter 2013
 

Stuffed up this one. Just overshot the first 2 controls badly and then ran out of two in the wrong direction. At there I stopped and thought I need to orienteering better so I am very happy I recovered after that and even go a few good splits. Too bad about the beginning though. I will try to focus at the start better tomorrow.

note to self: must organise life and become motivated to train more outside of work/ uni and coaching

foot starting hurting half way around. Did something weird to my foot yesterday.

started the course today after doing the junior arrows training first. I think my brain was switched off for one control and i wasnt really motivated to run. SO anyway I didnt plan my leg to three and took the worst bearing and ended up 400m to the west of the control Messed around in the yakkas and finally figured out the white vego agasint the green. Belinda found me there (she started 4mins behind me). I was with Belinda until maybe 8-9 getting slowly ahead again. Got a burst of energy at 10 and bolted. Mucked around on 14 with bearing again. Managed to stay at an ok speed. Belinda only beat my by 7 seconds in the end so im pretty happy i got my time back after my interesting 3rd control.
