Running warm up/down 6:05 [3] 0.73 mi (8:20 / mi)
shoes: Brooks Adrenaline (2008)

Orienteering race 44:41 [3] *** 3.65 mi (12:15 / mi) +150m 10:51 / mi
shoes: Brooks Adrenaline (2008)

Seward Park, 3.9k

Yeah, terrible race. Ah well.

Crosspasted from comment:

... My far and away biggest mistake was going down an indistinct (unmapped) trail about 10m before the actual trail on number two, cost me 5+ minutes. 5-6, I got lost on the trail that just vanished to the north of the control, and had to flounder around for a bit before I got back on a mapped trail (to be fair, I was trying not to lead the navy guy who was 50m behind me right to the control, so I ran for a while on the vanishing trail before it vanished instead of taking the smart route and turning around and getting on the actual trail). 8-9 I ran within 5m of the control but it was behind a rootstalk, but it was mapped as being in a re-entrant, so I didn't think twice, I went about 20m past it and then realized "wait, I've gone too far" and had to stop and figure out where I was, but that cost me a minute.

There were other places I could've cut time (I was walking up hills at the end... for some reason orienteering tires me out more than it should...) but those were the obvious things, I could've cut 9 minutes off no problem, which would've put me in first. Ah well.

Running 19:17 [3] 2.25 mi (8:34 / mi)
shoes: Brooks Adrenaline (2008)

Northacres x1, plus a quarter mile or so on the track. Max sprinted the last 200 quite quickly. I sprinted it somewhat less quickly. WIOL tomorrow!

Quantum of Solace - it was a good movie, but I was expecting more. I was stunned by the ending. I didn't think the Bond franchise was going to blatantly sell out like that. Ah well, I should've known better. (SEE THE MOVIE BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS!)

Running 22:55 [3] 3.0 mi (7:38 / mi)
shoes: Brooks Adrenaline (2008)

Haller, reasonably fast. Nobody to run with, which makes Drew sad. (I went out way to fast - first mile was like 6:30. Luckily, I timed the lights so I didn't have to wait.)

Running 16:45 [3] 1.86 mi (9:00 / mi)
shoes: Brooks Adrenaline (2008)

Running to Hamlin

Time includes lights.

Orienteering (teaching) 33:20 [3] 1.48 mi (22:31 / mi)
shoes: Brooks Adrenaline (2008)

Running with Nat and Clayton. Nat shows promise, Clayton also could be good, if he isn't discouraged because he's a little behind Nat in terms of navigational skill.

Running Games (Walking) 16:00 [3] 1.1 mi (14:33 / mi)
shoes: Brooks Adrenaline (2008)

Walking home from Hamlin

No car today, so I just had Max carry my stuff (some of us drove and some of us ran to Hamlin) in his car and then walked to my house from Hamlin.

shoes: Brooks Adrenaline (2008)

Jog back from Hamlin

Note

So yeah, I took the week off from training. I was feeling yucky until Friday, and it was raining pretty hard Thursday through the middle of the day yesterday. I figured I needed a break to get caught up on life, which I've mostly succeeded on. I hope that by the end of today I'll be 100% caught up.

Max and I met at Hamlin today to prepare for our orienteering training session we're putting on tomorrow. We're going to have ~5ish people, so we decided that (depending on whether one of them actually wants to learn how to orienteer or just run) we're each going to shadow 1 or 2 of them, and send one or two people out to run the course we set by themselves. We also talked about SciOly (we're doing elevated bridge and EV (again) together).

Max, you should bring your cell phone with you next time. =P
