Orienteering 51:08 [4] **** 5.3 km (9:39 / km) +210m 8:03 / km

Middle at MK 2015 on updated map in Cercedilla.

Terrible race in cool terrain. The map was iffy in a few spots. But my erros were what did me in. I also was quite unmotivated after the second large error.


Error time: 11:58

Errors:
-Poor entry to controls and subsequent wandering.

Causes:
-Lack of attackpoints for certain controls.

Solutions:
-Look for attackpoints.

Orienteering 25:00 [3] 4.0 km (6:15 / km)

Testing out routes again after the race. Doing them correctly this time.

On control 2 I took off 3:42

On control 15 I took off 4:16

Running 20:00 [3] 4.0 km (5:00 / km)

10 minute warmup and cooldown with warmup routine included.

Orienteering 1:21:03 [4] **** 10.6 km (7:39 / km) +410m 6:24 / km

Long at MK2015 on new map of area between Navacerrada and Cercedilla

Happy with my race. Only a few mistakes. Not too difficult. Mostly a very physical race.

Error time: 3:57

Errors:
-Getting ahead of myself and not knowing where I was.

Causes:
-Losing map contact.

Solutions:
-Concentration at all times. From start to finish. I have to train this more. I've got time to train it though.

Running 20:00 [3] 4.0 km (5:00 / km)

Orienteering 1:00:00 [4] **** 8.0 km (7:30 / km)
spiked:5/5c

A great night-o with Richi and the lechones in La Berzosa. Set up was a round map with no north lines and a "star of death" as Richi called it.

5 controls, 5 separate mass starts. We were rolling quite fast each time. Really good to work on competitive orienteering speed.

Error time: 3:00

Errors:
-Taking slow routes when there were clearly faster ones.
-Losing map contact.

Causes:
-I was worried about going in a group. So I took the slow route when there were clearly faster ones.
-When in a group I was too focused on maintaining speed with the group than maintaining map contact.

Solutions:
-Stay with groups if it's the fastest route. It may even be faster simply because there are people.
-Map contact is key. You may not be able to maintain it with as much detail, but you cannot lose it and expect to attack control in the correct way consistently.
