orienteering race 45:00 [5] *** 5.5 km (8:11 / km)
27c
I don't have a watch with splits at the moment, so I'll just add the Needham sprints as training.
I struggled a bit on Sprint 1, which was 2.9 k and 10 controls. I mostly need to work on pacing, because I was tired running on the trails at the end of the course, which is really just a result of running too fast at the start. my time was just over 25 mins, about a minute slower than Jon Cambell.
Sprint 2 was less on trails, 2.6 k and 17 controls. I paced better mostly because I was more tired at the beginning to start with. I also had a better sense of scale and was spiking almost everything near the beginning. Had some trouble in the last loop. I was running with Grant, and not paying enough attention to my own compass. Still much happier with this one than the first.

Note
not sure how long it took for me to bike home, but was about 4 miles back from the sprints. great day to be biking though.
