orienteer 1:27:56 6.3 km (13:57 / km) +321m 11:07 / km

First local event of the season. Leaves are still out, so the woods were thick. Nice to be on the east side of Wyandotte lake (better terrain) and it reminded me of my "short and hilly" routes of old.
Decent effort. Confused by the new trails between 4 and 5, and the changed vegetation around 7. After I missed 7 the first time, I made sure to stop and relocate right away, instead of wandering. May not have been really necessary at a local event, but I wanted to practice good habits.

Perfect set up from the last control to the finish, so I got to practice my sprinting (and dominated the split:). Mike took a slo-mo video of me:

Went over to west campus and ran around in the dark. My HR was not as high as recorded; don't know why it "sticks" some times.

weights 30:00 [3]
Quick workout with the trainer, then headed to the KU Student Orchestra Halloween concert. I love this event. The musicians and audience (the kids) dress in costume. And the program is scary or spooky music (Night on Bald Mountain, Sorceress Apprentice, etc). Great fun.

Yikes, temps below freezing! I'm not ready for this yet. Had to look around for hat, gloves, running jacket. Tried to remember what to wear on my legs (I figured this out a few years ago, I should write it down...)
Started running and I was cold. Twenty minutes in, I felt fine. Thirty minutes in, I started to get hot (granted, the temps were rising rapidly). Passed the car at fifty minutes, so I stopped and discarded some layers.
I started at the boat ramp in Clinton, and ran west, which was a first for me (I've orienteered in this area, but not run the trails). It was the first time I had been to the extreme west end of the trails. I stopped for a minute to admire the view of the lake. It was fun to explore a new area.
