10x sprint first legs. Really good training for quick route choice, enjoyed it.

havent included rest times between the sprints, pretty much complete recoveries though

sprint training #2 at mcquarie. mass start sprint. took a while to see no1 on the map with the printing but then was all good. was reading ahead well but took wrong route choice on 9 which let mace get ahead. Got her on the route choice to 15 though. Sweet area for sprinting but legs were feeling it after just oone morning!

short warmup as we were late, and collecting tapes at the end

Gladesville hospital sprint training. Another cool area, technical buildings. lots of large stone walls everywhere, designed to keep people in!
exercise where the aim was to keep moving at all times. Find that's what i do anyway so was all good. Just eased into it at normal training run pace, only time i had to think about keeping moving was at 7 when the tape had blown away.

Handicap sprint race on Gladesville. Last starter of the girls at 2.20, 10s behind mace. After a couple of controls got used to having to grab the sport ident box with one hand and punch with the other. had caught mace and george by about 6 and was working my way through the larger group by 10-11. but then they all messed up 12 and suddenly i was ahead and having to turn all the controls on! kept pace going through the parkland to finish ahead.

warm down collecting tapes

the less said about this the better. some of the least enjoyable orienteering i have ever done.
