Running warm up/down 15:00 [3]
shoes: Nike Pegasus 28

Orienteering (Men's course) 17:54 [3] 4.3 km (4:10 / km) +60m 3:53 / km
shoes: Inov8 Flite 195

Number 3 circle seems a bit misplaced. Should be closer to the corner that it is actually in, but I didn't notice during the race.

4: Could have gone across the wooden bridge and perhaps saved some time.
6: Circle should have been cut to see the route around the north side of the building. Only noticed this when Jeremy used it on the women's course.
9: Was a bit hidden, granted I didn't really read the control description on this one.
11: May have been faster to just continue past 5 to 11. The route that I raced was probably not optimal.
12: Confused the two blue splotches on the map. I was then too far north and had to cut down through the winding path. Control was not really where the circle was, but after that mistake I was happy to see it.
14: Bit slow trying to read the map to 15 in the dark. May have been better to go around because of this.
15: I went south to 15 around the cafe area. Not sure what the best route was here.
16: Missed the path north from 15 so went a long way around.


Main mistakes were on 12 and 16. Few seconds here and there on punching and "finding" the control.

Note

Tests coming up, so this next week of training may not really go as planned, but after that I can get a few big weeks in with some runs on the same days as strength.

Looking to build in some strength training along with the speed and some technical intervals during the sprint season. The calendar allows for some weeks with 3 hard sessions (no races) so I'm just going to have to plan ahead a bit better.

Last few weeks have been hectic with varsity, meeting and getting the courses done for the school's league. Also had the odd 21st that takes away an evening or two...

Strength 50:00 [3]

Wanted to actually try and do a nice run afterwards but I left my running shoes at home and I had to go to the Big 5 meeting (with some studying and a detour for food)
