Orienteering (Street-O) 47:02 [3] 6.8 km (6:55 / km)
shoes: 201002 Asics T918N

Two street-O sections sandwiched around a Tufts Sprint course, from the CSU training set by Brendan. I arrived quite late, grabbed a map from Brendan's mailbox, and set to try to catch some people. I ran into Alex and Lori at the start of the Tufts sprint; Alex started after I did. I caught up to Lori at control 6, then led her the rest of the way. However, I wasn't going fast enough to shake her entirely, which was disappointing.

Revealing time comparison:
Street-O A:
Ian - 1507
Brendan - 1324

Street-O B:
Ian - 1324
Brendan - 1247

Tufts Sprint:
Brendan - 1718
Ian - 1831
Lori - 1944

I don't think I was pushing as hard as I would during a race, despite Thierry's advice to treat trainings like races. I also found an unmapped section of road on the first sprint which caused me some distress and may have cost as much as thirty seconds. Nevertheless, I was quite a bit slower than Brendan, and not particularly faster than Lori on the sprint. Ross's total time was about 41 minutes, 2 minutes ahead of Brendan.
