Orienteering 40:00 [3] 4.0 km (10:00 / km)

Today we were in the northern part of the same area, doing an exercise called "Lapin Belge" or "Belgian Rabbit". No one is sure where the name came from but it is where you relocate and follow where the coach takes you then do the next two controls and come back, then that is repeated. We only did the blue course (below) because parking was not as planned. Nice, however, I've found sometimes I need to follow more where I run rather than over simplifying.

Orienteering 1:00:00 [3] 2.2 km (27:16 / km)

Next was a 3-person [Harris] relay but at least one person stays in the center unless someone comes back (on your team). nice technical terrain, same though. :( Quite a few paths however I tried to get the technical, long controls:

Orienteering 2:00:00 [3] 6.0 km (20:00 / km)

Afternoon session was a fun 2 man relay with a little twist: The two people have to role two dice and depending on the numbers, those are the controls they have to punch (old school punching). if you role the dice and the numbers are ones you've already done you have to do a forfeit (exercises(pull-ups etc.)). It was great fun, and you guessed it, it was MAP MEMORY!!
