Orienteering Training 2:00:00 [1]

Two of a bunch of hours hanging ribbons. I did find some classic mega thick tree stormed sections of the map which was very slow.

My god Orienteering events take a lot of time and energy to put on.

Note

Any Americans reading this with access to an REI and going to NAOC??

Orienteering Race 1:35:02 [4] 8.2 km (11:35 / km)

O Event at March Highlands. Really fun 8.2km LA course. Interesting area, lots of trails, which means lots of trail running. However this style of trail running is probably the most technical possible (wee ups and down with lots of junctions and tricky rock footing).

One of those courses that if you found it boring or not technical, you should have run harder.

Felt okay early, then was easily dropped on a trail section by a 9:00 3km runner, aka Philippe Turcanu. Then saw him a few other times. He's very fast!

Was doing okay until 10-11. It goes right at the edge of the map and thought, hmm this isn't a great leg as some adventure runner could totally go off the map. I then immediately messed up my berring and went directly off the map. Found myself on a random trail, tried to make sense of it and eventually decided I need to get back to #10. Which I did and then went mega slow to 11. After that, was a sloppy.

Legs did not feel that quick out there.
