Technical training at Silkeborg Nordskov; window-O. Went out on the long course to get a few of the controls while the juniors sped through the course. Again, trails were not mapped well and logging extraction rides confounded things. The first section was a regular course; C1 (horrible as I mistook a wide ride for a trail) C2 and C6 (easy once I ignored the trails on the map and in the terrain), C7 (fine), C8 - C11 were window-o controls (overall I was happy with these controls and my compass and distance work although I was walking the whole way; came to a trail between C8 and C9 that I thought could be the trail 9 was next to so spent a while looking next to this trail before moving on), C12 (easy but I didn't go all the way down the hill to the control), and walked to the finish on the trail to make it in the 2 hr window.

Walk around race simulation site on the other side of the Silkeborg Nordskov map. I helped Grag run the race simulation starts and then walked up the hill and back down to be at the finish.
