Running warm up/down 15:00 [1]
Warm up, down, back and forth car-registration along the track mostly. Also stressing out about maps for people/getting Lucy back on time- all worked out though!
Orienteering race 55:04 [4] *** 7.7 km (7:09 / km) +235m 6:12 / km
24c shoes: Walshes
LOK Regional Event, Holmbury Hill
This area is where I had my first good race last year (spoilt by a mispunch, but I was actually orienteering quickly for the first time.) Today also went really well, with the only real mistake being only a minute on control 7, where I futzed around with the gullies a bit. It was really fun to actually run around and just have things make sense!!
I was super nervous going into the isolated shallow gully on top of the hill (#20), I felt like it could turn into one of my pit misadventures from last week. But was careful, and after poking around this way and that a bit, found it easily, though that might be partly good luck too...
I didn't actually feel as springy as last week, nor did I last night. Perhaps the intervals on Thursday? Calves were just burning on all even gradual ups... But the main goal of the weekend was attained: no bad ankle twist! Hopefully this means it's actually going to get a chance to heal now!
