My first ever go at Mobile-O, and Rob's initiation to orienteering! He guided me round the course, and was very successful. It was super tough out there in the soft snow, and there was a few places where I slowed to a walk. We hit everything until number 7, where I didn't turn right enough and we ended up at 8. So I had to turn round and go up the big hill, which was pretty hard work. Then overshot number 9 a little by being on the wrong side of the ridge. It was really fun and I was dead impressed with Rob's planning. He should really have a go at the real thing! Great to be out in the snow, and focussing on the running and talking meant I felt a lot better than yesterday. I reckon we lost about 4 mins out there, and it would have been less without snow. Pretty cool.
