Orienteering 51:58 [3] 2.9 km (17:55 / km) +79m 15:46 / km
ahr:136 max:165
Catching features in rugged forest. Our training group treated some of it as a route choice exercise too, with us starting off at the same time, and me always arriving at the control last (I'm really very slow through undergrowth and felled trees), Nav was good.
11 AM
Running 5:28 [2] 0.93 km (5:53 / km) +4m 5:45 / km
ahr:132 max:139
Back to the lodge.
12 PM
Orienteering 40:32 [2] 2.85 km (14:13 / km) +103m 12:03 / km
ahr:130 max:166
Corridor in forest. We ended up doing this as a group, which was fun.
Probably not the most useful exercise for me, as I often slow down and read the map in detail. I need to focus more on simplifying and running to catching features.

Orienteering 31:06 [1] 1.63 km (19:05 / km) +35m 17:14 / km

Contours-only map. I was pretty spent by now, and contours were tough to match up with the land (the vegetation boundaires really helps solidify some of the vagaries of the map).
3 PM
Orienteering race 24:58 [4] 3.05 km (8:11 / km) +41m 7:40 / km
ahr:162 max:175
Grassland sprint on Bunker Bench near Kamloops.
This was a REALLY fun map to run on - definitely the highlight of the weekend. My legs weren't really in the mood to go any faster, but the navigation was solid. I do a lot better in grasslands than in forest!
