Orienteering (Control Hanging) 30:00 [2] *** 5.0 km (6:00 / km) +44m 5:45 / km
shoes: Asics Gel 1150
Got caught in traffic so had to race around the course and hang the flags faster then Jeff and Brent could find them. Decided I might gain time by mountain biking the trails. This was in fact a grave misjudgment on my part. The following two hours saw me essentially mountain bike orienteering across the highlands (some of the most difficult mountain biking in the green belt) as fast as I could.
At the end of the day felt pretty exhausted having biked to and from Jeff's, given a 1.5 hour long interview with Jeff for CBC radio 1, plus the long race through the March Highlands... far from an ideal rest day.
On the plus side, the interview went well and the 8:30 broadcast Saturday morning was pretty cool. Unfortunately can't find a recording on the web :'-(
