Gym 45:00 [3]
slept:7.0 weight:162.2lbs
Morning yoga class with Rhonda and the girls and special guest Leslie. Very fine, and the girls had to leave early so it was cut short to 45 minutes, which works much better with my attention span.
3 PM
Orienteering race 14:19 *** 1.22 mi (11:44 / mi) +30m 10:54 / mi
ahr:149 max:163 spiked:12/12c shoes: 2011 icebugs
Sprint course at lake Wakapominee scout camp. Very nice. Not moving fast, but no real mistakes, so I hung on for second behind PG. Lucky.
1. Started to run, but couldn't really see the trail on the map, so after a bit I stopped dead to see it, and then saw the stonewall in front of the trail, so I could keep going and spike it.
2. Up the hill, a few steps on each of the switchbacks, but very slow climbing, from reentrant on second trail segment and straight up to it.
3. Not much enthusiasm for going up and over, so went around to the left. I thought I might be losing time doing this, but had the second fastest split. I might have had the fastest, but when I saw the code I panicked and looked around, because I was expecting 143 (not having looked). Looked back at the map and saw 126 was right and punched.
4. Through the spectator area and across. Stopped to look at the small building first. Should have known better. Probably cost 8-10 seconds. Ross went by at a pretty high rate of speed.
5. Ross disappearing quickly.
6. Cut off the main trail one trail early, through the woods to the bend in the trail and down to the building. No control! Read the clue, looked at the map a little, then back to the bag. Map doesn't show much of a boulder cluster. Another 8-10 seconds.
7. Straight.
8. Started left along trail, then through the woods aiming for the clearing, hit it right on. I was going to go down the small trail, but easier to aim right for the flag.
9. Trail.
10. Trail for a bit, then cut off on the trail to 7, thinking it was the trail to 6 and left at the bend. Pretty surprised when I got to 6, but then ok.
11, 12, F, just run as fast as I still can. Worked out well for me, because the splits revealed that I was just behind Rick W after #10.
