Orienteering 36:42 [3] 2.56 km (14:20 / km)

CSU spring training at the Fells. This course was a control pick and all the trails had been removed from the map. I got really confused on my way to 2 and got kinda annoyed so I walked about half the course after that...

Orienteering 22:47 [3] 2.32 km (9:49 / km)

Simplification training at the same event. This one was a lot better and I did fine!

Hmm this was interesting. Corridor designed by Keegan. There was a lot of greenbriar. And I don't really know what happened on the leg 11-12...

I loved this. The course was really good, a lot of changes of direction and you had to be awake all the time. I was feeling a lot better so I was able to run faster and do better.

Awesome race, the terrain was sooooo cool. Since I'm sick I just went out to enjoy. I was running at a very comfortable pace and did only one small mistake.

I think it was a good sprint but I felt terrible running. I was still very much sick... I was pushing a little too hard and I wasn't doing very well navigationally (I never had a route plan ready when I arrived at a control). It was still pretty fun!

Interesting training with Keegan. We both had half of the controls on our maps, put in pairs of two controls in a row. Keegan started and found the first two controls, then I had to relocate and run to my first control and then to the second one. Then Keegan would relocate and continue the same way...

It was a fun training but running was really tough because there was about 1,5 feet of snow on the ground. This map is the master map (I navigated the legs 2-4, 6-8, 10-12, 14-16, 19-F (the control #4 was in different place on my map, that's why it looks like we didn't go there)) :

Nice sprint-corridor at Harvard's campus. The color scale on the quickroute is not very accurate bc I had to adjust the route a lot... But it was fun and I was running at a pretty comfortable pace. The goal was to be about 50m ahead on the map all the time and always know what to expect after every turn!

Fun training at Franklin Park with Tyra and Bridge. I guess I didn't eat enough breakfast bc I felt really tired and couldn't run fast at all :(

Great hillside training at Blue Hills. I was surprised how well I managed to find the controls 37, 39, 41 and 42 and it made me happy!

Compass training with some of the CRLS orienteering team people. Pretty hard course, set by Keegan, a lot of climb. I walked with Vince the first couple of legs and then he ran away and I kept walking/jogging. I was able to find all the controls but it took a while.
