Orienteering 5:51:45 [2] *** 23.49 km (14:58 / km) +531m 13:27 / km
spiked:24/33c shoes: VJ Falcons 4 (yellow)
Hickory Hop Rogaine, 6-hour solo. Shades of Death map with a map exchange, 25 controls on each map. Rhododendron, mountain laurel, small rocks, medium rocks, big rocks - all of it excellently mapped. Lots of bashing through green and lots of compass use but I got pretty good at reading light vs. medium vs. dark green and picking up subtle features. Found all the controls I tried for. Perfect weather - sunny, 50's - 60's and breezy.
Fell a couple of times, bruised my right thigh about 1.5 hours in and that was bothersome the rest of the day. Did 18 controls on the first map, 15 on the second, switching maps at just under the 3 hour point. Started to feel a bit of cramping just as I started the second map, so walked a lot more from then on.
Finished 3rd Veteran (50 - 64) and 13th overall in 6-hour solo category with 1880 points (2775 max possible).
Control order - 63,75,65,45,77,67,69,59,79,57,43,37,61,55,73,31,53,51,80,34,44,60,52,46, 50,64,48,70,62,38,78,54,40.
Excellent course and organization by Sandy Fillebrown and crew.

Trail Run 38:09 3.71 mi (10:17 / mi) +84m 9:36 / mi
ahr:135 max:151 shoes: Scarpa Spark Trail Shoes
At Hand Hollow Conservation Area. Warm and very humid (there had been a shower in the area just before I ran). Temps in the 70's so quite summery. Many bird sightings - Canada Geese and family, swallows, robins, an oriole or cardinal (from a distance). Audible on a woodpecker. The heron rookery doesn't appear to be active.
