Event: OOC B-meet

11 AM

Orienteering 1:00:35 8.36 km (7:15 / km) +15m 7:11 / km
ahr:157 max:180 shoes: Inov-8 Orocs

There were definitely some major sections of idiot orienteering in this. Once I finally got to control 1 I was wondering if I should have done the beginner course instead... I thought I had tamed my compass bearings to an acceptable level but apparently they are still wild and lead my in terribly wrong directions.

Compass issues were the main problem but generally had a lot of trouble focusing. I was greeter this morning which made it much harder to focus leading up to the run but I still should have been able to get into it better than I did.

The comforting thing from all this is that I still had a reasonable race despite feeling like I couldn't orienteer at all. I figure on I should have been 10 minutes less than I was.

Running warm up/down 8:59 1.55 km (5:48 / km) +2m 5:46 / km
ahr:121 max:137

A short warm up to orienteering.

Note

Stretching-25 min, after getting up.. woke up with a major kink in my neck which is really annoying.

10 AM

Running 1:22:31 13.52 km (6:06 / km) +11m 6:05 / km
ahr:138 max:172

Ran out to Bruce Pit and back... found some more interesting trails at the bottom of ravines and such. I still think it's an area worth mapping.

Took me a while to get into this run. The kink in my neck was bugging me but did become less noticeable as the run went on. The congested feeling and phlegm in my throat didn't...

Event: Trailhead Summer Solstice Meet 1

Note

Finally proved to myself this weekend that I can actually do this elite orienteering thing by pulling together 3 solid races in one weekend. I've struggled for so long to put together a full weekend of clean races (heck even one complete race) and it feels awesome to have a super weekend like that! Fourth Canadian in the middle yesterday!

Far too hot out and still tired from the weekend but the orienteering was super easy and it wasn't too long. I was third back after Tea and Alex B who both had a 2 handicap.
