Running - Trail 14:48 [4] 2.6 km (5:42 / km) +27m 5:25 / km
shoes: MT 1010 2014
A few hesitations and bananas here and there, but generally executed quite well. Won a couple of splits unexpectedly.
Lots of direction changes and switching from forest to trail to fields. Enjoyed the variety.
Running - Trail 15:10 [3] 3.07 km (4:57 / km) +8m 4:53 / km
shoes: MT 1010 2014
Really enjoyed this. Apart from Carol, I didn't speak to anyone who picked a shorter route - so pretty happy with that, 5 seconds planning before starting was well invested.
Had a good cruisy flow for this one and got the balance between planning ahead and staying on track about right.
Orienteering 4:27 [5] 1.03 km (4:20 / km) +44m 3:34 / km
shoes: MT 1010 2014
First leg. No goals, no plans, just get it done.
Pretty straightforward area, just make sure you punch the right control. Amazing fun blasting it out with 50 other runners. Really like AZ's photo of the start:

Orienteering race 4:23 [5] 1.1 km (3:59 / km)
shoes: MT 1010 2014
Pretty much flawless, the only mistake was forgetting to start my watch. Got Hammer out with enough of a buffer to take out our rivals and finish 5th overall.
Hammer used O-Cup strategies to prevent us losing a number of places. Gold star.
Running - Trail 32:40 [4] 4.2 km (7:47 / km) +87m 7:03 / km
shoes: MT 1010 2014
Very cool area, lots of variety that kept getting better. Housing complex was a lot of fun.
Orienteering 14:20 [5] 2.1 km (6:50 / km) +76m 5:47 / km
shoes: 2013 Orocs
Always a highlight. Got in the lead on my loop, but after the first hub it was like a game of 100 person pinball.
Quite a few hesitations and sub par routes on all the hillside/staircase CPs which I think added up, think I really just needed to man up on the descent legs and go straight instead of going the long way round. Still, mega fun.

Running - Trail 26:07 [2] 4.03 km (6:29 / km) +77m 5:55 / km
shoes: MT 1010 2014
Just cruised, enjoyed the sun and firm ground. 0 degrees feels amazing when it was -20 when I left.
Orienteering 14:00 [0] 2.4 km (5:50 / km) +32m 5:28 / km
shoes: MT 1010 2014
Oof, I'm rusty. Picked the right way to get to #5 and then promptly turned my brain off, pretty much errors every second control after that.
0 degrees is less warm in the shade.

Running - Trail 19:34 [2] 2.91 km (6:43 / km) +78m 5:56 / km
shoes: 2013 Orocs
No one, but did the warm up with the idea of doing 1 set of 3 sisters. Didn't even get through little sister without having to walk, so pulled the plug to save the legs for the weekend.

Running - Trail 52:38 [2] 5.31 km (9:55 / km) +175m 8:30 / km
shoes: 2013 Orocs
Brutal workout but an amazingly fun descent straight down the middle of Lowry (and was proud to see most of the ARXers taking the same route afterwards).
Legs starting to feel pretty whacked after these past couple of days. Perfect timing for the Sprint Camp.

Running - Trail 53:55 [2] 6.61 km (8:09 / km) +379m 6:20 / km
Actually pretty awesome conditions, nicely packed trails except for K2 which was ice crust post holing the whole way up. Super slow going.

shoes: Inov8 Roclite 285
Sore arches after - these are the shoes I wore at WTM that gave me PF.
Into the bin for them.
