| Orienteering 2:28:55 [4]10 km (14:54 / km) | |
| |
| USMAOC Extreme-O, intermediate course. All tolled, probably around 10k. Included: trail run (1k+), 3k standard O-course (expert, 3.8k), score-O (needed 8 out of 15 points, expert needed 12), distance/azimuth (they say: 450 m., 27 deg; you go); 3 memory-O legs; streamered rucksack carry over steep terrain including "spin around bat 10 times" and water balloon carry. A fun event, not very extreme this year (experts only did around 12-13k total). About 15-20 in intermediate class (about 10 in expert). I won by a substantial margin (prize: West Point engraved glass tumbler). The terrain was very challenging in parts, especially over slippery rocks wet from earlier rain. And it was warm (mid-70's). I moved slowly and carefully, but had no trouble finding the flags (except for second memory-O where I was off line and had to hunt around). |
