Running - Terrain 4:00 [2] 0.48 mi (8:20 / mi) +15m 7:36 / mi

Warm up for day 5 of the Rocky Mountain 1000 Day.

Orienteering (race) 1:24:23 [2] 11.66 km (7:14 / km) +415m 6:09 / km
ahr:151 max:162

Ran day 5 of the Rocky Mountain 1000 Day. Mark Everett started less than half a minute ahead of me, but I let him go. I didn't have any aggressive feeling today, and my legs were a somewhat tired, so it was very difficult to push myself to go fast. I decided not to push much, but just ran as fast as it felt comfortable to.

I navigated fairly cleanly, but I had big problems crossing the marshes, despite making a concerted effort to look ahead at the map and the terrain to find good crossing places. The marshes were wetter than mapped, perhaps due to recent beaver activity. Every time the course crossed a marsh, Mark got another minute ahead of me.

Cycling (mtb single-track) 56:09 [2] 9.3 mi (6:02 / mi) +250m 5:34 / mi
ahr:133 max:158

Rode East and South from Yellow Pine Campground to the nearby trails. After climbing a longish hill through the forest, I found myself on the Happy Jack Map and rode the trails back via Tie City and Pole Creek. It was a really fun ride. I'm looking forward to mountain bike orienteering in the Medicine Bow National Forest sometime.
