orienteering - General race 1:21:30 [2]

Started a bit over a minute after my start so I took a minute off my time. Overall didn't enjoy the terrain that much, too much ducking and crawling under branches. Started enjoying more when the course got out onto the dunes again for some controls.

orienteering - General race (Påskeløb (day 2)) 47:41 [3]

Not really actually running for about almost a minute of the time, as I stopped to properly tie my shoe and put my broken watch in my pocket and when I heard the beeping for the runner behind me to start I figured I should get going.
That being said I'm happy with the first 5 controls ...but then spent 3 minutes on a 30s second control when I looked at the wrong control description. From there on out I mentally lost it, goals and orienteering in general went out the window and I kept running up the mistakes for the next 18 controls (I did somewhat manage to recover from legs 13-18 when the course left all the green, but that didn't last)

orienteering - General race (Påskeløb (day 1)) 1:12:43 [3] 10.2 km (7:08 / km)

Just took course distance because I accidentally turned my gps off 20s into the race.
Fun terrain, but the lovely combination of cold, snow, and water wasn't as desirable. Ended up running half the race as a group of 3 as a start interval of 1 minute was clearly not enough.

running warm up/down 25:00 [1]

About 20 warm-up, 5 cool-down
10 AM

orienteering - General intervals 51:37 [4] 6.98 km (7:24 / km) +227m 6:22 / km

2 relay courses with forkings, the first being 3.2km and second 3.3km. We started in groups of 6 with 45s between each wave for the first, then started again 5 minutes after you finished. 23:13 on the first, 4:55 rest by my splits, and then 23:29 on the second.
Some mistakes and questionable route choices on the first, plus my legs died half way through. I opted to start the pace off more modestly on the second to avoid that and I felt it also went technically better.
2 PM

orienteering - General 55:00 [1] 6.47 km (8:30 / km) +209m 7:19 / km

Easier paced training plus some time trying to find the start after getting dropped off on the side of a road of a map with no trails/roads on it. Focus was on making sure to flow through controls and and know precisely where they are when attacking them. Also tried to make sure I had a general visualization of the big features of each leg before I started it.
3 PM

running warm up/down 6:00 [1] 1.13 km (5:19 / km)
