 | Orienteering race (Malmalling H3 course) 1:05:17 [4] 8.2 km (7:58 / km) | |
| slept:8.0 shoes: Brooks trail shoes |
| Meant to be 6.5km. Really enjoyed this one - i think immersing myself in orienteering (even if it is just sprint maps) has helped my nav a lot. Didn't make too many errors and when i did, I am getting much quicker at picking them up so not wasting too much time. I am getting good at catching features - so much so that after discussing with john i think i am almost using them as my attack points, which is not ideal! So next i need to learn about attackpoints.
Good fun, lovely area, lovely day (except the gentle buzz of the trail bikes) and i even beat Evo.
Oh and i beat john on one leg! One leg of the course that is, i wouldn't beat him if i were hopping. |

| Ran a practice lap of the Hale course with Vera and Haggles. Map seems to work, except for the blank bits (still a work in progress). And for the Minim Cove people, don't panic it is not 7km long again, only we had to do a lot of loops because the gates were shut... |

| Meant to do 2 sets of 3 reps. I am still very weary so did the first set of 3 at 3/4 (2/3?) pace and then two slow ones chatting with Bea who was taking it easy too at the start of her come-back. Good group - 8 people turned up. Must be the start of the anaconda wind-up.
