Orienteering 24:36 [2] ** 1.19 km (20:40 / km)
spiked:3/5c shoes: INOV8 TrailRoc 235

We first did the model for the McIntosh Reserve Sprint. I should have worn my O shoes, as it was steep and the leaves were slippery in places. Not a bad effort, but my bearing was significantly off to the right on control.
2 PM

Orienteering race 43:05 [4] ** 2.4 km (17:57 / km) +30m 16:54 / km
spiked:10/12c shoes: INOV8 Bare Grips

Sprint C at the McIntosh Reserve. A longer, woodsier, and more technical sprint than we usually do. Two mess-ups. Got a little rattled going from 1-2, saw two controls that turned out not to be mine, then settled down and did pretty well until I got to 10. Turned in too soon and went too far up the hill.

I even did some light jogging in a few places which were open. Not too bad an effort except for the silly mess-up at 2. This was not a thoughtful mistake.

Orienteering 54:36 [2] *** 2.44 km (22:23 / km)
spiked:8/10c shoes: INOV8 Bare Grips

Possums decided to do the model event after flying to Atlanta. I went around the wrong side of no. 5, but this was easily fixed. The major time error was no. 7. I went down too soon and too far on the spur. It didn't help that the clue was "NW boulder cluster" and the boulders were less than a foot high. It was really good to get out into the woods and move around, after sitting on a plane and then a car.

9Round 32:00 [3]
ahr:117 max:132 shoes: Skechers GoFit

I never got out of breath today--that was good, but I feel very worked out.
2 PM

Dog Walking 18:33 [2] 1.33 km (13:57 / km)
shoes: INOV8 TrailRoc 235

The weather has been so awful, Elray and I haven't been taking our usual walks, and we both missed them. So, even though I am getting ready to go to Georgia early tomorrow, and still get to see my trainer this afternoon, we had to walk since it is so nice outside. We went to Mack Porter, but they have closed off both access roads. We parked at the Catholic Church, and walked about 100 meters out to the closed off road, then down the road to the woods loop, and looped and returned. Elray pranced, and I almost did also.
4 PM

Workout 1:04:00 [4]
ahr:117 max:161 shoes: INOV8 TrailRoc 235

Mostly just a tough workout with my trainer. Did my agility drills holding a medicine ball overhead.

9Round 32:00 [4]
ahr:107 max:139 shoes: Skechers GoFit

An interesting little diversion was pushing a tire down the length of the gym and back. Got my heart rate up.

9Round 32:00 [4]
ahr:116 max:136 shoes: Skechers GoFit

Finally a day when my glutes aren't sore. The CHOW was three minutes of plank jacks, but I don't do jumping, so I did plank spidermans instead.
6 PM

Yoga 1:18:00 [0]

Restorative.
