Orienteering 10:59 [1] 2.02 km (5:26 / km) +3m 5:24 / km
shoes: Saucony Peregrins

First little sprint camp training in two parts:

1. you can't cross any of the additional pink lines - nothing too tricky here but a couple of left right options where you had to find the gaps in the lines to figure out where you could get though.

2. you can't go into any of the maze of whited out areas. This was trickier and I generally just chose the simpler route. Wasn't super focused on the last couple of controls. I wasn't focusing on focusing though and was just treating it as a warmup for the weekend.

Running 4:37 [1] 0.68 km (6:48 / km) +20m 5:56 / km

A little 'warm-up' as it were prior to the first race.

Orienteering 15:43 [2] 2.55 km (6:10 / km) +66m 5:27 / km
shoes: Saucony Peregrins

Sprint camp is a long weekend and I wasn't sure how I would hold out physically so the plan was to take it easy physically but really focus on two process goals:
1. really visualize every decision point.
2. I can't remember now.... oops! Look up as far as I can see?

The decision point visualization itself went fairly well (it could be better though) but I made a few small mistakes in other areas which precluded the visualizing the decision points.

Surprisingly tricky area!
