run warm up/down 8:12 [1] 1.02 km (8:03 / km)

orienteering race 58:26 [3] **** 4.5 km (12:59 / km) +260m 10:04 / km
spiked:6/17c

COC Middle / WRE
Crazy contour terrain, very steep with lots of holes. I had a lot of trouble making sense of how things were mapped, usually with how the map used point depressions and knolls. Lots of mistakes, and also a few legs I actually did correctly but then didn't see the control in all the thick stuff. quickroute. Check out my awesome routes to 3 and 11.

orienteering 25:18 [1] **** 2.23 km (11:19 / km)
spiked:8/9c

Reran the first half while they were doing awards. Much better this time, the morning practice race was quite helpful.

COC Long
Fun and technical sandy terrain, with thick trees mixed with open dunes mixed with normal forest. A huge slog leg up some open sand that seemed unnecessary, but was pretty fun to come back down. Caught up with Severin on the first couple controls and we were back and forth for the whole rest of the course. quickroute.

Pleasantly fun, not really what I was expecting for the terrain. More open and flat and fast than last weekend and the training week, and enough contour/vegetation detail to make it interesting.

Compass / aiming off training on Miles Canyon. Two guys from yesterday, plus a new guy from the lower group. We're not so good with bearings.

Star relay to end the Junior Camp. I was paired up with Terrance, so I got to not only run my two legs but also shadow him on his two legs. Made a few mistakes on my two, and possibly did some controls out of order, but I'll never tell.

orienteering 1:07:17 intensity: (41:06 @1) + (20:54 @2) + (5:17 @3) **** 3.18 km (21:10 / km) +77m 18:53 / km
ahr:100 max:144 spiked:11/11c

Same two guys, and we went out to Long Lake and did a contour only course through some gnarly negative terrain. We got lost a few times, but in general did fine with a little prompting. Raining really hard today, but between the three of us we used enough deet that the mosquitoes were not a problem.

orienteering 30:00 [3] **** 1.5 km (20:00 / km)

Went right back out for a relocation exercise, in the same area but with full maps this time. I ran somewhere really fast while they weren't allowed to look at the map, then they had to relocate and find a control from the morning.
6 PM

orienteering 13:40 intensity: (28 @1) + (11 @2) + (23 @3) + (12:38 @4) *** 2.5 km (5:28 / km) +4m 5:26 / km
ahr:154 max:164 spiked:14/15c

Sprint relay, lap 1, running with a junior. Got a wee bit lost coming into the arena field, but before that was all good.

orienteering 9:06 intensity: (21 @1) + (6 @2) + (13 @3) + (8:26 @4) *** 1.7 km (5:21 / km) +4m 5:17 / km

Lap 3. I rocked it.

ahr:112 max:146 spiked:17/17c

Day 1 of the junior training camp, which I somehow got suckered into coaching for. We went back out to the middle terrain from Saturday, and the kids ran the next harder course while we shadowed. I had two guys (Reid and Roan) in M16, so we ran the M20 course, which was a bunch harder but they still did fine. Lots of trails, and we ran together and stopped a lot to make sure we were in the right spot. Raining a lot, and cold and miserable, and lots of mosquitoes, but you know, it's Canada.

orienteering 55:25 intensity: (22:04 @1) + (21:04 @2) + (12:11 @3) + (6 @4) *** 3.61 km (15:21 / km) +67m 14:02 / km
ahr:114 max:149 spiked:8/8c

For the afternoon we went up the road to a biathlon range, where there were lots of trails around some rolly terrain, and did the red/yellow/green light speed game. Still raining, but at least there were even more mosquitoes out by now.

run warm up/down 7:09 [3] 1.15 km (6:13 / km)

orienteering race 17:10 intensity: (1:21 @1) + (9 @2) + (1:23 @3) + (13:42 @4) + (35 @5) *** 3.19 km (5:23 / km) +50m 5:00 / km
ahr:149 max:168 spiked:12/12c

Western Canadian champs sprint. Mostly forest, lots of trails, and one long leg through a neighborhood. Had a really clean run, everything showed up where it was supposed to, and I was running as fast as I go the whole time.
4 PM

hiking 1:00:00 [2]

Afternoon hike up Grey Mt with all sorts of people. Little rainy, but not too cold. Good views down onto Whitehorse.
