Orienteering (Little Bennett Green) 1:17:44 [3] 6.0 km (12:57 / km)

GoT out early and hope to finish in time to also do MCRRC 5k XC run starting at the same place. Have a fairly clean run - though breathing poor to begin with (no warm up).

Trail Run (5k race) 33:35 [3] 5.0 km (6:43 / km)

Peel off gaiters and O pants. Decide to go in O shoes. Wait about 12 minutes between finish of my o course and start of the race. Getting a little cold. Start is flat and then down hill. Everyone just ahead of me stops when they come to a huge muddy area and a stream going across the trail. I blow by them and manage not to fall - oohs and aahs behind me. Glad I didn't make a fool of myself - o shoes very helpful here. Run strong for the first part. Walk a couple of long uphills. Legs wooden for the long uphill to the finish leg. Bunch of young kids - only one of the 10 year olds beat me. 122/185 overall. 3/6 in age group and 34/62 for women.

Running/Walking (Control pick up) 35:00 [2] 2.0 km (17:30 / km)

Did not want to pick up bags, but there are 1-4 from Green all by themselves on one side of the road. Stay in sweat pants. Go in opposite order from the morning. Probably less climb this way, but come to a water control first. At stream, I step onto the rocks, but it is only leaves - sweat pants wet up to the thighs with no dry pants in the car. Find them all but not without some trouble on 2&3. Run fairly hard down the road from the last one.

30 situps when I get home.
