Running warm up/down 20:00 [2]
An honest attempt to wake myself up for the race, failed. Need to develop a better warm-up system. Not nearly nervous enough to race.
Orienteering race 42:39 [4]
Middle distance is probably my favorite O-discipline. I am quite terrible at it though. Route choices were far from optimal throughout the course, the lack of training to blame. Had a mistake on #2, where I attacked the control from the top, was too high and got confused by unmapped cliffs and rocks. Poor route execution to 3. Not focused for first half at all. Once the Canadians crossed my path, however, it was game. Now I just need to bring this competitiveness 100% of the time and I'm all set. Caught up with Hilly at the last few controls and thought she would race me to the finish but she didn't, probably got scared.. hehe. .
Great course, nice and technical, just the way I like 'em.
