 | Orienteering (hanging controls) 40:00 [3] ***** 4 km (10:00 / km) | |
| spiked:2/2c shoes: Nike Terra Ridge 07 |
| Hanging the last two controls for the long course. Semi-twisted my ankle while returning to the parking lot. |
| Orienteering (long) 1:00:00 [3] 5 km (12:00 / km) | |
| 3c shoes: Nike Terra Ridge 07 |
| Started running the long course. Didn't find a streamer at #1, which was confusing; spent ~7 minutes searching for it. Then didn't find a streamer at #2; figured Clem had thought he was supposed to be picking up the streamers or something. Now the FDFs have descended in a relentless swarm, I am totally exhausted, and there are no streamers. Motivation sinks into oblivion, so I head back through #8 to the parking lot. Turns out Ross just forgot to set those streamers. |
| Orienteering (night-o control pick-up) 1:15:00 [4] 4 km (18:45 / km) | |
| 5c shoes: Nike Terra Ridge 07 |
| Well, it felt like a 4, at least for the run-in when I was frantically trying to flee the FDF swarm. Actually, running downhill with FDFs on your tail is pretty good training - requires intense concentration while moving fast. |

| Orienteering (control hanging) 1:29:56 [2] ***** 6 km (14:59 / km) | |
| 30c shoes: Nike Terra Ridge 07 |
| Not really sure about the distance. Hanging ~30 controls for the training weekend. |
| Orienteering 54:22 [3] ***** 5.1 km (10:40 / km) | |
| 20c shoes: Nike Terra Ridge 07 |
| Contours-only course. Hordes of FDFs. |
| Orienteering (night-o) 1:46:07  ***** 5.9 km (17:59 / km) | |
| 12c shoes: Nike Terra Ridge 07 |
| Ross's version of the wicked-hard night-o. Passed Ross on #3, then more or less spiked #4, which put me something like 7 minutes into the lead. Had some problems after that, chose some more round-about routes, probably was moving slower, and ended up 10 minutes back from Ross. Fortunately the thunderstorm held off until I had finished. |
