Event: Georgia Navigator Cup
Walking hills 35:00 [2] 2.5 km (14:00 / km) +75m 12:10 / km
shoes: Jala Jukola Spider 6 (old)
Walk to start; mostly flat or downhill until the last half-km which was fairly steep. When I was called up I couldn't get through the throng of kids and had to ask to be let through.
Orienteering race (Green-X) 1:29:31 [5] *** 5.23 km (17:07 / km) +230m 14:02 / km
spiked:11/13c shoes: Jala Jukola Spider 6 (old)
My planned route from 3-4 took me in the vicinity of #9 but before I actually checked the reentrant I was unsure where I was so slowed down. Also, on let 5 I was temporarily unfocused (distracted by other runners) and hesitated, but decided I was on-route and lost a little bit to hesitation. Otherwise it was a physical slog up some hillsides but my navigating was dead-on; my sense was that it was a technically "easy" green course (just physical). Around 90 minutes is typical of my present conditioning level (meaning, I haven't been running much lately!).
Orienteering race (sprint) 36:17 [3] *** 2.28 km (15:55 / km)
spiked:8/12c shoes: Jala Jukola Spider 6 (old)
More exercise? Sure, why not. I was intending to walk (since I saw maprunner doing so) but threw in some jogging here and there (like on the trail, 8-9). Still, I managed to bobble #3 (ended up too far right) and #5 (too far right again; up near #2). Tripped over vines on hillside near #9 and just lost all will to run anymore. I was dead beat by the end.
