Orienteering (SEJS Training) 2:00:00 [3] 9.6 km (12:30 / km)
SEJS Training at Epping Forest. Lovely runnable beech woodland with very leafy ground to run on. Some good contour detail but not much however good map to use.
Coach was the one and only Josh Jenner, along with Alex F as a partner.
2.8km - 28mins
Short legs, focusing on going straight and using my compass to a good extent. Went in a small group at first, separating after a bit. Felt good and getting direction and distance basically perfect sometimes using aiming off (probably should use this in racing a bit more).
2.11km
Longer legs, same concept just with longer legs. Got challenged by Josh to go as straight as I can and succeeded well, to my surprise, spiking one control after running straight on compass for 600m+ through rough forest.
Did some map memory as well.
1.28km
Corridor, always fun and helpful. We did some map memory around the contoury bits and compared compass bearings between the 3 of us.
