Sunday May 25

Orienteering race (Middle, Blue) 1:02:01 [5] *** 7.31 km (8:29 / km) +516m 6:16 / km
ahr:172 max:189 spiked:12/18c shoes: O Shoes
Blue, Middle, 4.840KM 190M, 1:10000 5M

Interesting....

Started poor on the first, got okay for second, parallel error on 3, 5 was slow, 6 was weird... Had to use Garmin to reasonably think where I was, 7 was a problem, 9 problem, just slow and little error throughout..

Overall:
Was not in touch with compass and map
Metal compass was screwing up
Good training run

Tomorrow is looking to be clean, not fast.

Blue Middle - Splits

Saturday May 24

Event: US Team Trials
 
Orienteering race (Sprint WRE Blue) 27:07 [5] *** 5.61 km (4:50 / km) +273m 3:53 / km
ahr:187 max:197 spiked:18/22c shoes: New Balance
Sprint, Blue, WRE, 3.490km, 83M - 1:4000, 5M

Walk to start: WOW! Long, and hilly, but I am for long walks to start to get a better race.

Race. Good, a little long I thought but very good on penalizing you if you weren't looking. Too many olive gardens. All of my problems came from 3 points. I would have been extremely competitive but those points just killed me.

Good learning curve, first blue, haven't orienteering in a little while due to TEEs and still feeling slightly stupid just from those.

Got all the stupidity out of my system for the other two more important races.

Blue Sprint - Splits

Thursday May 22

Orienteering (Course Checking) 1:07:06 [1] ** 6.86 km (9:47 / km) +645m 6:39 / km
ahr:120 max:153 shoes: New Balance 2
Did a walk/jog up to the start for a boyscout course. Walked it to ensure validity of control sites, and clue descriptions. A few alterations but overall pretty good. Shouldn't be too bad. Had fun finishing my last TEE today.

Jogged back.

Ready for this weekend.

Wednesday May 21

Orienteering (Run then Orienteering) 1:52:44 [4] *** 10.05 km (11:13 / km) +902m 7:45 / km
ahr:142 max:175 shoes: New Balance 2
Went out for a run/orienteering training time after my TEE. Decided to take along a course that I created during the winter weekend back in February.

Up to the water treatment facility - 15:18, 231M elevation

Course - It was brutal, I was not feeling it. I noticed the amount of updates needed in certain areas (Soon to occur) when I was trying to use that type of a feature and it was not on the map or the other way around. Went somewhat slow and was able to find everything. The elevation gain on this course was bad, all in two areas. Ended up slipping around quite a bit due to normal shoes being worn. It got annoying after a while. I am sure that orienteering while feeling half-retarded is not the best thing. Should have a much better time this weekend.

Ohh, the coolest thing that happened is that I ran into a pack, somewhere around 10, of baby of what I think were foxes. They were all together until I walked through then they spread out. I don't think that they were expecting anything to come through dense green bushes.

Walk/Run back to my barracks

I have yellow/green stripes on my socks now!

Physical (Run) 21:22 [3] 4.73 km (4:31 / km) +104m 4:04 / km

Ran before Lunch to get prepped for my tee, good to get blood moving and such. Also did a 'mock' APFT to ensure I meet the standard for Airborne school. No problem.
