Sprint Training using cell phone display (11/07/2013)
Category:
Training
Map/area:
Kristiansand
Distance:
3.22 km
Time:
42:49
We arrived in Kristiansand today, I tried another experiment:
Using "Custom Maps", a free program in the Google Android store, I saved the map image from an old KOK sprint training event, then used my cell phone as a (moving) map screen.
This actually worked pretty well: The GPS tracking meant that the map stayed more or less centered around the area I was currently moving through, and the cell phone display was quite readable even in bright sunlight.
I still had to orienteer though but the GPS did provide assurance that I was in the correct city block.
I did make one mistake towards #2 when I started to orienteer towards #4 and didn't realize it until I had passed under the second bridge!
