Next update on Sunday evening
My next update will be Sunday evening. I'm doing a good bit of O' training this weekend and won't be at my computer.
Before a race or technique training, I like to think about what I'm trying to get out of it. I'm a bit unsure about this weekend. I think what I'm really looking for is:
1. To have fun; to get a good feeling about orienteering. 2. To move smoothly (even if slowly) through the forest. 3. To get a sense of where I stand physically.
I'll be running with (and against) Dave F. and Eric B. Both are about my age, but both are usually faster than me. I don't know how Dave's training has gone this summer, but Eric's training looks like it has gone well. I expect to come out of the weekend feeling slow, but also feeling motivated.
