Running warm up/down 30:00 [1] 3.0 km (10:00 / km)
Really low intesity warm up and a jog back with Ralphy
Orienteering race 1:10:00 [4] 13.0 km (5:23 / km) +200m 5:00 / km
November classic M21L.
Classic race round the new forest. Easy course but gotta be the best long race I've run. Went off quite hard and felt I could keep it. Technically my aim was for a really back to basics approach. Simplification, visualisation and compass work. Took safe routes most of the time and compass was quite good. 30s on no1 was the only mistake of note. Came out of start and went pretty much back on self from start kite. Didn't check my bearing well enough and ended up having a much longer path run than I should have. Controls weren't difficult, and it became a bit of a slog but I kept concentration the whole way through. Now all I need to do is apply this approach to classics to more technical areas and make sure I keep concentrating.
