Super fun. Paths taken off the map, so I was thrown off on the way to 15 by a large path in the middle of the leg.
Struggling through jara and young pine. Great training.

The terrain was a bit easier, but there was still plenty of climb.

Cut it short so we could make it home in time for dinner. 6.7k is also a bit long for a middle on this spur.

Really struggled with this one. It seems like each time I organize trips or training camps, I stop focusing on orienteering properly. Not surprising I suppose because there are many other things that need attention. But I need to make sure that when I go out, I'm focused on orienteering. The other things can have my attention later.

A short but difficult course. A few unmapped stonewalls and fences threw me off, particularly on the way to 8. But overall it went quite well.

Since this was a looped course we did this as a mass start. I was alone for most of it, but I did see people out there fairly often. Certainly more often than when I'm back home.
Failed to keep a solid bearing on several of these legs. Switching between the two terrain types -- the open, relatively fast, gentle hillsides to the reentrants and spurs with dense bushy vegetation and cliffs--was really difficult for me. I struggled to quickly change my approach to each.

I DNFed the middle here last year. So I was happy to get back to it.
We did these as intervals first, but the goal was to stay relaxed physically, but have 100% technical focus. I was able to hold it together for the first half, but after 15 I started to fall apart. Feeling tired. Time to sleep :)

Also, here's an interview I did for a blog called Medal Zone: https://medalzone.wordpress.com/2019/02/18/champio...

Really tough area, both physically and technically. I struggled to make sense of the area around 4. But apparently I did find the feature, just didn't see the tape. Also MPed 8 because I found another tape in that area. Oh well.
For me, most of this training was just getting out to finish a course here after my last race on this map was unfortunately interrupted.

It's been almost four years since the last time I was in this area. Really fun forest. Very fast, but still plenty of interesting rock detail. Still, too easy for daytime orienteering, so a night course was perfect.
This is a new map and I wasn't 100% convinced. There were some areas of sketchy vegetation mapping, particularly around 14. But it was still good enough for some solid training.
