Running warm up/down 35:00 [1]

Heck of a lot of time to kill prior to my Sprint start time. Was worried as I couldn't seem to get the body to warm up and still felt cold up until 5min before my start, but finally broke a sweat (maybe just nerves)

Orienteering race 21:13 [5] *** 2.61 km (8:08 / km) +95m 6:53 / km
spiked:9/13c

Not the best choices in routes; really death in a sprint race. But enjoyed my first attempt at an A-meet sprint.

Running warm up/down 5:00 [2]

Thanks to Google Map Driving Directions arrived late for this morning's sprint and only had a brief warm-up (if you could even call it that).

Orienteering race 21:43 [5] ***** 2.5 km (8:41 / km)
spiked:15/15c

O'SKOOL (AM): "Sprint" A tough sprint, especially missing the briefing and not knowing there wouldn't be SI punches at all the controls (really confused at Control #1). Was pleased with my flow, however a bad route choice from 6 to 7 cost me ~40sec.

Orienteering race 1:15:00 [4]

O'SKOOL (AM Con't): "Score-O" A bad route choice (maybe just a well designed Score-O) and very tough conditions. Was pleased with my perserverence, and spiked all but one control. Had to leave 5 of 20 controls unattempted due to the time limit. Still took a 4min penalty, but happy enough.

Note

No run for the pooch today. Instead took for a long walk at the end of O'Skool today. Allowing the legs to recover with good eats and a good nights sleep for tomorrow's final day of O'Skool.
