This went a lot better than yesterday! I feel like I really got into the map today and I was able to keep track of where I was the whole time.
Medium sized mistake at 3 where I went in too early and had to relocate, which I could have done a little quicker than I did.
Another little bobble at 9 because I didn't have a very strong attackpoint coming up the side of a hill.
Other than that the course went quite well. Lots of focus which doesn't usually happen in a long for me. I was able to push hard on the big trails, even though there were rocks everywhere! (my fav!)

Running warm up/down 15:00 [2] 1.7 km (8:49 / km)
shoes: Inov8 Oroc 280
Stretching 15:00 [0]
Orienteering race 51:53 [3] **** 5.28 km (9:49 / km) +127m 8:46 / km
14c shoes: Inov8 Oroc 280
Terrain was a combo of Harriman (one giant crazy contour hill) and Whistler (blueberries!!) and I quite enjoyed it!
I purposely took the first few CPs quite relaxed to get into the map and used to the terrain. I ended up going pretty slow for the rest of the race too... finally got into the terrain and then the race ended.
Overall the race was fairly clean. 2 real mistakes at 7 and 10 but I relocated fairly quickly. I think I spent a little too much time reading the map as opposed to simplifying the important stuff.
Between the terrain and the emit brikke punching technique, I think I'm prepared for tomorrow.

Running 18:50 [1] 2.73 km (6:54 / km) +49m 6:20 / km

Stretching 20:00 [0]
Orienteering race 14:30 [4] ** 2.6 km (5:35 / km)
16c shoes: Mizuno Wave Inspire 11
Ok, first thing I'm gonna say is, the Emit air things are pretty nifty!! (when you actually get used to using them) I lost a couple seconds lost here and there when I wasn't sure it had registered yet.
Overall good race, I made a couple silly mistakes mostly on route choice and then going off in slightly the wrong direction on a few legs in the open area (didn't see the added fences and almost ran right over one). I missed 2 because I was looking down at my codes and ran right past it- only found it because I heard Will slide right into it.
Other than that the race went well though I didn't feel like I got a good flow like usual, mostly just based on the whole 'not used to the timing system' yet thing. There were a few dog legs late in the race so I used them to read ahead.
Great start to racing season!

We were going to run the training when we got to Oslo but it started hailing about 3 mins into our journey so we turned around and waited it out.

legs were totally blah and my right shin started hurting at the end :/
technically, the training was good. Flow was meh but I was checking my control descriptions (surprising, I know) since there were no ribbons.
