Easy running warm up/down 3:45 [2] 0.64 km (5:52 / km) +20m 5:04 / km
ahr:141 max:148 (injured) shoes: Mudclaw 330 #2
Whew! Got a lot of sleep last night, as there were only about 20 maps that got printed on the wrong side of the paper on Thursday and had to be reprinted. I also put out some extras, given the last-minute registrations. The printer cooperated well enough that it was done and idle by the time Alexei showed up, a bit past midnight.
Eric, Alexei, and I drove to the start of the Trials Middle. I helped out with the registration and packed pick-up, then jogged to the finish as a part of my warm-up. I saw a bunch of Trials people finish, and saw that Clem had a good time at about 40 minutes, a minute or so ahead of Eric. I did not notice Eddie's blazing result, although I did see him finish.
Just as I was ready to start my own run, I saw the train of Ross, Erin, and John finish, all with times that seemed beatable.
Orienteering race 43:46 [4] **** 6.86 km (6:23 / km) +245m 5:25 / km
ahr:176 max:184 spiked:14/16c (injured) shoes: Mudclaw 330 #2
My own race went well. I almost managed to keep William off my tail, and only made one significant error. I was so busy navigating that I don't remember if the ankle bothered me at all or not.

I had planned on a lot of afternoon training (cf. last year's water draggage tickfest), but there was not much to do at Mark's site. He managed to get all advanced sites vetted that I hadn't been to, and planned a final vetting/SI turn-on check for Sunday 6 am, with enough people to cover all sites within an hour and a half or so. So, this afternoon we carried some stuff to the start, and then modified some terrain around Control 215 (Blue #22, Green X #12) with garden shears, to better match the map.

Spent most of non-work-working time on Monday and Tuesday going over Day 3 courses, cutting circles in OCAD and laying out the maps, and getting the maps ready to print.
