| Warmup in the fields near the lodge before orienteering. Did not warm up enough. I felt fine but my hands got cold soon after starting the course. |
| orienteering (sprint) 32:25 [4]*** 4.8 km (6:45 / km) | |

| QOC: Lake Fairfax, Long Sprint. Did the long course first since I was not sure I would have time for all 3. Hands got cold after 1 and did not warm up until 5. Took off the compass and e punch and pulled my sleeves down to warm them up. Could probably have gone faster if I had the map unfolded and the compass out. Felt pretty good and none of the tiredness from the last 2 weeks.
Splits are posted. |
| orienteering (sprint) 20:10 [4]*** 3.3 km (6:07 / km) | |
| spiked:12/13c shoes: Integrator05-studs |
| Stayed in just long enough to download and get a new map (which took a while since I could not go into the lodge in my spikes - finally got Ted to download for me.) then out on the medium course. Nice and warmed up but at the first uphill could feel how tired I was. Botched 7 when I missed the reentrant and overshot. Had to look at the map and figure out where I was instead of just picking a good route as on the other legs.
Splits are posted. |
| orienteering (sprint) 15:02 [4]*** 2.5 km (6:01 / km) | |
| spiked:12/13c shoes: Avia |
| Rested long enough to change into running shoes so I could download and then back out on the short sprint. Thrown off a bit by the change of map scale but many of the controls were common with the earlier courses so no navigation problems. One bad route to 7 which took me through more woods than necessary. Very tired by the end. |

| Last nights 1-2" snow was to much for Fairfax Co schools so evening activities were cancelled so tonight's square dancing had to be cancelled.
So instead of working late, going home to run, or just getting a good nights sleep; I had dinner with Bev and stayed out to late. |
