mapping - field checking 3:00:00 [1] ***
weight:163lbs shoes: A W Journey

England-Idlewild, checking middle distance control sites and doing a number of map updates.

Afterward, I checked out the Friday night fish dinner at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church. This looks like it will be the place to go for Friday dinner at the Pig. A fish platter for $7. Baked or fried. And several other choices as well including shrimp. Soft drink or draft beer for $1. Brownies selling Girl Scout Cookies and Middle School kids selling desserts. And a big BINGO hall with big digital screens. And cash prizes. So you can play while you eat (or go to the other hall where you don't have to listen to it).

dental surgery. getting another piece of titanium put in. Thanks to a delayed after-effect of my 2004 rock-biting adventure in Wyoming.

trail running 28:08 [3] 2.7 mi (10:25 / mi)
weight:163lbs shoes: NB Minimus

Miami Natural Areas. A sloppy circuit of Pine and East Loops. Read the noteboard at the trailhead while cooling down. Some looney-tune had actually written (today) "Can you do something about the mud?" I bet that person has never done a lick of trail maintenance or building in his or her life. I do still smile when I read comments about the "nice signage" though. Nice to know my maps are appreciated!

Event: MVOC / TROL #11 "Valentine Hunt" Possum Creek

Event: Tucson Training Camp

orienteering race 1:42:06 [4] *** 9.8 km (10:25 / km) +100m 9:55 / km
18c weight:164lbs shoes: Jalas hi-top O' shoes

"Purple" course (cross between red and blue) at Possum Creek. Although the air temperature was just above freezing, a bitter northeast wind made it feel much colder, especially crossing the rough open prairie areas. Although I felt old, fat and slow, my time was good enough to win, though.
