Packed class! Could hardly do the moves full out.

orienteering 1:21:04 [1] *** 5.92 km (13:41 / km) +128m 12:21 / km

Hanging controls with Madde. We had a few iffy ones where we had to go back and forth to make sure we were right. And as we were about to hang our last one, we went off of a trail that didn't exist on the map.. so we wandered around the wrong hill and couldn't understand a thing until Becky rescued us :)

orienteering 57:30 [3] *** 7.5 km (7:40 / km) +198m 6:46 / km
17c

Mass-start at Ansonia. Boris had designed us each an unique course that was supposed to take ~1 hour to finish. Mine was 7,5km and I thought "there's no way I'll do that in an hour". But I did! :) So much fun running with lots of people around, relay feeling. I don't think hanging controls before this race helped me that much, while I came at them from a different direction.
Could have done better on my long leg, climbed too much leaving my #6 and hesitated. Took trails to the right from 9 to 10, not sure if that was the best way, lost height. Got a bit distracted by Balter going from 12 to 13. Stopped early for 16 and felt like I took a slow path to 17. FR 8.485km

Mass Start - Splits

Event: WCOC New Haven Training Weekend

orienteering 22:55 [2] *** 2.65 km (8:39 / km) +124m 7:01 / km
19c

Control-pick at Osbornedale. Started out together with Madde and we verbalized our plans on how to attack the controls.

orienteering 36:10 [2] *** 3.86 km (9:22 / km) +123m 8:05 / km

Line-orienteering at Osbornedale. Very good exercise, I went very slow and tried to really read the contours.

orienteering 18:22 [2] *** 2.02 km (9:04 / km) +56m 7:58 / km
15c

Compass-course at Osbornedale. Another great exercise. A little piece of paper with only the north lines and controls (map erased). I realized I have a tendency to drift to the right.

orienteering 23:24 [3] *** 3.0 km (7:48 / km) +30m 7:26 / km
23c

Sprint at Yale campus. Well, I didn't visit 2 of the controls, 2 & 9. I was at the wrong side of the building wall, together with other people at both and we just said that it must have been ripped off (controls were marked with neon tape). People with more sprint experience knew that controls like those are always placed in the trickiest to get to spot.
Looking for something that small forces you to be in the exact right place to find it which made the exercise even better. FR 4.31km

Thanks Becky for an awesome day of orienteering!!

zumba 1:00:00 [3]

Jose's class. FUN!

orienteering 37:22 [2] *** 6.49 km (5:46 / km) +59m 5:31 / km
32c

Test-run of Becky's sprint training course at Yale campus. Really cool! She's done an awesome job with the map.

I was having some back spasms after zumba and it was getting dark. After 2/3s of the course I had to be under a street light to be able to read the map, so went to pick up the head lamp in the car.

trail run warm up/down 20:05 [2] 3.91 km (5:08 / km) +74m 4:41 / km

at Maltby lakes. Miserable weather.

trail run intervals 28:00 5.68 km (4:56 / km) +29m 4:48 / km

4 x 4min with 3min rest
ugh, I haven't done intervals in a long time, thinking that doing something more intense would make the injury more painful..
Don't know if it was my speed or my loud breathing that scared the deer the most ;-)

trail run warm up/down 15:58 [1] 2.85 km (5:37 / km) +35m 5:17 / km
