Orienteering 1:33:26 [4] 3.8 mi (24:35 / mi) +310m 19:37 / mi
ahr:180 max:200

Orienteering at Lord Hill! This terrain kills dreams, but is always a fun challenge. Got a nice stinging nettle rash. It's a great place to go through the woods, but the amount of downfall is very intense on the ankles and speed is limited. Much climb (1010 ft). Wearing a mask with sun is also a real challenge.

A question for the experienced/college orienteering community on nutrition:
How do you eat well in college? Or at all?

I feel like in college I am getting one or two meals a day, but training in some capacity every day. I feel like I don't have time to eat between classes and training. If I have a 20 min lunch break, it's less than an hour before my workout and I am afraid of getting sick during my run. Also after doing a run, I always lose my appetite. So I almost always end up skipping lunch and depending on the day, sometimes breakfast or dinner. Being vegetarian with a dairy allergy doesn't help because sometimes the dining hall just has very limited options where it feels like I have to motivate myself to eat the same meal for the 3rd or 4th time that week.

Due to this lack of nutrition I definitely feel weaker, especially since this is the most physical training I've dedicated myself to in the last few years. I'm used to eating 3 meals a day and I hope to get back there at some point.

Do people have advice on how to time out meals? Or good nutritious food to eat before running that won't make you sick? Or even easy vegetarian meals to make as a college student?

Thank you very much for helping me!
