Orienteering 1:08:14 [4] *** 11.75 km (5:49 / km) +333m 5:05 / km
23c
Mid-Atlantics Blue course
The GPS looks good, but I didn't feel very precise. I kept letting the hillsides pull me off bearing in my final attack, like on 6, 14, 20.
I was able to keep up pretty good speed in this terrain despite the heavy load this week and lack of speed training. It helps that the forest was very open, albeit scratchy.

Mid-Atlantics Relay
A sprint through open forest to catch up to Cat-ch↑. Unfortunately his team gave him enough of a lead to hold me off very safely as I saw him finishing when I went through the spectator control.
This was great training despite being a relatively simple course. I don't always get that much motivation to really move through the forest. I was reminded of my less-than-great interval session with the Spanish and Attunda in Portugal in February.
You need to train, but you also need to train fast... if fast is what you want, of course.
