| Event: SOL 2 | ||
| Orienteering race 1:28:16 [4]**** 6.9 km (12:48 / km) +195m 11:13 / km | |
| 20c shoes: Adidas Swoop | ||
| First long course. Scale different (1:15,000 vs 1:10,000) & blaming this for some of my errors!!
Miss punched first control (oops!) - thought I had checked control number so didn't find out till finished. Meant rest of run wasn't spoiled be realising half way round! Reduced intensity today as forced to slow down to navigate/blunder about as appropriate! | ||
| Running warm up/down 20:00 [2] 2.5 km (8:00 / km) +130m 6:21 / km | |
| shoes: Adidas Swoop | ||
| Far away start for W21L course.
Running late so rushing to get to start on time. | ||
| Horse riding (Schooling) 30:00 [1] | |
| Decided to add work with Luna into the mix as well. Will let me keep track of what I am doing with her in amongst the other stuff I am doing.
Not ridden in arena for few months. Very fresh & lively horse tonight! Working forward into bridle well, tho rather strong in contact. Fairly obedient, round & responsive to aids, tho spooky at times. Worked on transitions mainly. | ||
| C • didn't think sitting on you... 3 | ||
Saturday May 10 | ||
| Event: Scottish Sprint Championships | ||
| Orienteering race (Sprint) 28:10 [5]***** 3 km (9:23 / km) +155m 7:28 / km | |
| shoes: Saucony Grid Nitrous | ||
| Made 2 huge errors towards end of course - first navigational error, second expected to find open gate but found it locked...... (1 mistake earlier too, but not catastrophic & easily corrected).
Irritating seeming to have someone else use me to navigate for about first 6 controls. Felt dizzy x2 after finishing - BP probably low from stopping too quickly. | ||

| Score. Failed to notice that only open gateways on Barracks site were marked with crossing point symbol, so when planned route to my first control was blocked had to re-plan on the move. Lots of poor decisions resulting in poor course flow & poor map reading (esp 11). May help me concentrate more at weekend...
5.2K direct route between controls - ran MUCH further! ooops. | ||

| Off work sick - throat v painful & unable to swallow when woke up.
Horse riding. | ||
Tuesday May 6 | ||
| Climbing 2:30:00 [3] | |
| shoes: Boreal Joker | ||
| Spent time bouldering to warm up - concentrating on using feet on features only & discussing bouldering lesson last week with others. Can still do overhang route we were shown with twisting torso technique to reach up. Still using arms too much. Need to concentrate on shifting weight & reciprocal pattern. More comfortable dropping/jumping down from height.
Top roping - managing 5+ climbs with ease again, esp when thinking about technique! Finished with more bouldering but arms done & not managing well on technical sections. | ||
