Running warm up/down 15:00 [1] 1.0 mi (15:00 / mi)
shoes: New Balance MT 101
Several rounds of warm up - slightly chilly weather at the Troll Cup. I had arrived with sore back/mini spasm probably from loading/unloading the car, also a busy week behind me at work. Once warmed up enough I felt much less of it.
Orienteering race 31:02 [4] 3.1 km (10:01 / km) +85m 8:48 / km
shoes: New Balance MT 101
Troll Cup, Prelim Green X course. 2.7 km. This was like a "woods sprint:". Very busy map, so much so, I felt I could not even get my running engine in second gear. Not enough experience in fast reading, deciding all while keeping running. Lost 2min on 9 overshooting plus some minor inaccuracies adding to another 1.5 min. 3' 15'' behind the best (Tim) on the course.
Trail running warm up/down 18:00 [1] 1.0 mi (18:00 / mi)
shoes: New Balance MT 101
3 PM
Orienteering race 38:22 [4] 4.0 km (9:36 / km) +110m 8:26 / km
"Final" Middle distance Green X course, 3.5 km. A bit less of a sprint, short legs mixed with longer legs. I felt like I found a better overall rhythm. Lost 1/2 ' at 2 (drifted W not seeing the marsh boundary very well). Lost 1 ' at 6, got a stick caught in my shoe, then drifted to left not paying attention on the downhill. Went left around to 11, but could not keep a nice line. Lost about 30''. Caught up with Alar on the way to 12, and pushed hard to the finish. Went straight through the green to 14, would have been faster going around to trail. Ugh. Great courses today with plenty of challenge. 3'25'' behind course winner (Tim).
