Note
I skipped Carryout Caravan today -- partly so I could quarantine myself after last week's out-of-town trip, and also so I could study for this weekend's midterm.
1 PM

slept:8.0 weight:124.8lbs shoes: Saucony Peregrine (2018)
Neighborhood walk. Very sunny -- and 32°F felt pleasant compared to yesterday's cold & grey day.

Event: TSN: Box Canyon Score-O
10 AM
Orienteering 1:59:13 [3] 5.1 mi (23:22 / mi) +680ft 20:45 / mi
slept:6.0 shoes: Salomon Speedcross (2017-Turq)
Two-hour Score-O at Box Canyon.
Aaaannnddd...apparently I used up all of my nav precision yesterday.
My eyes were heavily watering non-stop for the entire two hours (due to the cold wind), which was unpleasant and distracting. When that happens, I can't see very well, I have to stop repeatedly to clean off my glasses, and my face gets painfully chafed from constant wiping.
I think that distraction was a legit factor in some of my mistakes...which were many, including overshooting #20; taking a really dumb route to #29; and wandering off the west edge of the map on my way to #33. Ay caramba.
In retrospect, I wish I had stayed on the north side of the road the whole time, since that area is less steep with more controls. I'm pretty awful at Score-O / ROGAINE route planning...
This was a great weekend (despite the heavy homework stress) -- can't wait to go back again.

Event: TSN: Ironwood
10 AM
Orienteering 1:33:29 [3] 5.15 mi (18:09 / mi) +132ft 17:43 / mi
slept:7.0 shoes: Salomon Speedcross (2017-Turq)
Red course at Ironwood.
Possibly one of my most precise courses *ever*. It's very difficult to relocate on this map and I've gotten hopelessly lost here in the past -- so I was hyper-focused on my compass. I also took conservative trail routes to #2 and #5 (maybe not the best route choice...but I didn't get hopelessly lost).
Also -- no terrible cholla encounters were had.
