Green Day 3 - Splits |
Wednesday Aug 16 |
| Note | |
| (injured) (rest day) |
| Have reaggravated the injury to my ribs and decided not to run in the Crystal Relay today. Don't recall falling or twisting during the Night-O or Sprint, so it was probably due to the serious wind-sucking I did during the Sprint. |

| RM 1000 Day - Team Sprint on "Gates of AMT Hell" map. A fairly technical and very physical course. Lost a minute on the very short first control and 7 minutes on #6. Way too much time to lose on a sprint. |

| Hike on Meadow Falls Trail in Snowy Range, Medicine Bow National Forest. Trail guide says ~350' of climb. Meadow Falls was somewhat anti-climatic, but the hike was very nice - a mix of wooded (by Western standards) and open meadows. All above 10,000 ft elevation. Saw a fox in the parking lot - kept our distance since he didn't seem to be concerned by our presence. |
| Orienteering race 1:16:45 [4]*** 5.1 km (15:03 / km) | |
| shoes: VJ Falcons |
| US Night-O Championships - "The Lights of Cheyenne" map. An abyssmal performance with about 23-24 minutes of errors, mostly on 4 different controls. Maybe if I did Night-O more than once a year I'd do better. Ended up 4th in M50, 15th overall on Green. |
