Sprint Orienteering Exercises

1st control trainingMany courses with only start and one or two controls. Several people start together (minimum of two), and the goal is to locate your position and run to the first control as fast as possible after turning the map around.Overspeed orienteering, Sprint orienteering
Never stopRun a normal course, but you are never allowed to stop! That is, you have to keep running all the time. If you don't know where to run or need to relocate, you have to keep running on the spot (but this should be avoided, you should rather run more slowly ahead of this point).Map reading, Flow, Sprint orienteering, Map contact, Speed adaption
Speed adaption O-intervalsInterval training on map in which the first part of each interval is very easy orienteering (typically one long leg with only straight road/path) - the second part tricky orienteering (slow speed). Run high speed in the easy part, and adapt speed to orienteering in the second part. Especially good as sprint training by simulating the change between urban and forest orienteering in a sprint race.Overspeed orienteering, Sprint orienteering, Speed adaption
