Running warm up/down 8:00 [1]
To the start, easy jog on road, then walk up the big hill. Mmmm definitely wiped body!
Orienteering 1:13:10 [2]
Map-memory middle with Becky, who was also feeling a bit tired. This was sooo much better than slogging away out there myself! (She gets points for suggesting!) =)
We switched who led each leg. The person leading doesn't look at the map because they should be navigating off of map memory, the person following tries to get enough out of the map while running to have a plan for the following leg.
Super-good exercise. I definitely floundered more than once. Most often, I'd get within the control circle and then not actually have a clue what feature I was looking for... in some sense that's good because I'm getting to a point where I could then have a map peek and put things together and nab the control. But even better would be able to visualize the control circle and know already where I'm headed!
Also, must run with a map more, would love reading-while-running to be more natural!
