And you two might just be double trouble Saturday - perhaps you have a plan:-). Fred has reappeared.

I know, he's been born again.
In an orienteering sense, that is.
Actually he's done a lot of trail races and orienteering this year. Maybe it's time for a resurrection of our rogaine partnership.
Though he may not be willing, last time (WRC in Arizona in 2004) I think I just about killed him -- from a point before midnight, I think near control 77, when he said he was feeling bad and wanted to go in, it took us about 10 hours to get back to the hash house, since the optimum route just happened to go by another 17 controls or so.... :-)

Az '04 - did it with Charlie. You & Fred came in quite a bit early & still won, I recall. You dragged him thru...well...hell. Fred was dead.
And both Fred & I were under the weather on Aran, Scotland, Oct., '80, Karrimor marathon - both concentrating on survival for different reasons.
