Running warm up/down 25:00 [1]

Misserable weather, cold and wet. But the body warmed up properly today.

Orienteering race 56:32 [4] *** 5.4 km (10:28 / km) +320m 8:05 / km
spiked:13/16c

Unfortunately, not a clean race. Never seemed to focus clearly or only speratically here and there. I think this was partially due to the wet conditions combined with my no-grip running shoes; 'spinning one wheels' progressing nowhere is really demoralizing. But satisfied by the fact that I managed to put together a few solids legs towards the end of the race. Now, just need to do throughout a course.

Running warm up/down 35:00 [1]

Heck of a lot of time to kill prior to my Sprint start time. Was worried as I couldn't seem to get the body to warm up and still felt cold up until 5min before my start, but finally broke a sweat (maybe just nerves)

Orienteering race 21:13 [5] *** 2.61 km (8:08 / km) +95m 6:53 / km
spiked:9/13c

Not the best choices in routes; really death in a sprint race. But enjoyed my first attempt at an A-meet sprint.
