Orienteering 47:09 [1] 3.11 mi (15:10 / mi) +136m 13:21 / mi

After finally finding a nice Office Depot to print maps at on Easter morning (my printer was inconveniently out of ink), scouted out and streamered controls for my May 10th meet at Bishop Lake, woo!

Bishop Lake has amazingly gorgeous terrain. So fun to swoop through it's squiggles!

Running 7:48 [2] 0.8 mi (9:45 / mi) +46m 8:16 / mi

Running back to car with some double hill. Then to Barbara's for Easter dinner - so much scrumptious food and wonderful company!

Drills warm up/down 6:02 [1] 0.36 mi (16:46 / mi)

Orienteering race 57:26 [4] 4.77 mi (12:02 / mi) +163m 10:53 / mi

Red at Locker Lake

Ran aggressively, but not clean. Mistakes to #1 (3 min to Mark, ouch!), #10 (1 min to Mark), #14 (40s to Mark and also 10 to Michelle, who generally had a rocking race, awesome!!!).

#1 was just a bit hidden, and I wasn't running 100% in touch because it was sooo open and clear that I was lazy. Burnt.
#10 was about the same way, although I was trying a bit harder to stay in touch I would say.
#14 I just didn't want the answer to be stay on the trail, so I tried something else which didn't work and got more off the line than I intended, actually....
#15 I was also too lazy to just go over the hill which apparently won the day.

So, lessons: take trails when they *are* helpful silly! It's not necessarily true that the course setter designs the course to always avoid trails. Probably impossible and not even a truly desired feature, gotta mix it up! And I shouldn't be lazy about going up hills. I'm a strong runner and should use that! (Esp. as contours are 3m...)

Orienteering race 36:51 [4] 2.88 mi (12:48 / mi) +110m 11:26 / mi

Orange with tired legs. Good competition from Andrew Metz on it, who was close on most of the legs!

Orienteering 14:50 [1] 0.54 mi (27:28 / mi) +20m 24:38 / mi

Control pickup with Tom. Surprised to have problems finding #11, boo!!

Went up wrong spur, got major tangled in thorns, actually bit the bushes to extract myself, never done that before!

Running 2:57 [1] 0.31 mi (9:29 / mi) +73m 5:29 / mi

Running 1:04:20 [2] 7.98 mi (8:04 / mi) +16m 8:01 / mi

Longish morning run in 34F. But way more people out in Wildwood than the middle of winter. Ran the floodplain boardwalk for the first time, floodplain has definitely been recently scoured and is still soggy!

Legs a bit tight from yesterday's 3k effort.

Running 13:17 [1] 1.48 mi (8:57 / mi) +2m 8:55 / mi

Drills 8:18 [1] 0.57 mi (14:37 / mi)

Running race 10:21 [4] 3.0 km (3:27 / km)

3k time trial

Not great, not terrible. Was hoping for more like 10:15, but was scared of something like 10:30, so happy to have at least been under that. Pretty steady pacing, after the first 200 where I was too excited and ran something like 38 seconds.

Happy to have had Tom at least spectating for company, somehow it's even tougher if you're truly out there alone!

But ok, time to work down towards 10 minutes... more track times and just running in general ahead!

Have tickets to WOC! Hard to find ones that weren't crazy expensive, apparently other people also want to go to Italy in the summer... =)

I was literally bouncing around with too much energy in Tom's apartment, but it was just cold out so didn't feel like normal running- hence, kicked myself out and to Zumba, woo!
