Orienteering City/Park (wet) 27:45 [4]

WET17 at Trout Lake. A really fun type of training. Controls are connected in pairs (and in this case one triplet). You can take the pairs in any order, but once you go to the first control in the pair you have to go to the other control on that leg. No planning before you start, you have to start running and plan on the run. It's really complicated to figure out what creates the shortest route and it forces you to read the map and plan ahead. Great way of getting value out of an area that you have over used and know well. Here is my route on this one. My head lamp ran out, so it was pretty dark... missed one pair, never saw it on the map.

Running Smooth 30:00 [2]

Warm up before the training and as a cool down I ran up and did the pair of controls I had missed on the course.

Off to Florida tomorrow! Really looking forward to the event and to see a completely new place. Work has been pretty calm, so I've done some consistent training for many months now with around 6 hours a week. I feel like I'm in good shape.
