Run warm up/down (Warm up/down) 20:00 [2]
Warm up before sprintervals at Keithcott Farm, and warm down after sprintervals.
Orienteering (Sprintervals) 12:00 [3] 2.1 km (5:43 / km)
John set 3 sets of sprintervals around the school at Keithcott Farm. I love sprints, and in particular ones around buildings, so this was especially fun. Just had a bit of trouble reading the map while moving, but I reckon this is a pretty common problem for people during sprints so I won't blame my poor eyesight just yet!
Run warm up/down (Warm up/down) 22:00 [2]
6 minutes warm up before the sprint, and 16 minutes warm down afterwards.
Orienteering race (SA Sprint Champs) 16:49 [3] * 2.5 km (6:44 / km)
spiked:19/19c
SA Sprint Champs at Nuriootpa. It started blowing a gale and pouring with rain a couple of minutes before my start time, so by the time I reached the first control I might as well have just had a shower in my clothes! I had a good time running this course, though with just a couple of errors. On number 14 I ran into the mounds of dirt looking for the control, when they were on the other side of the mounds (this probably cost me about 10-15 seconds), to 16 I ran around the fence instead of going over (probably another 10 seconds or so) and at number 19, the last control, I became confused and thought I was at 18... (this probably cost me another 10-15 seconds). Overall, I was pretty happy with how I went.
