Monday May 26 |
 | orienteering race 59:35 [4]*** 6.6 km (9:02 / km) +265m 7:31 / km | |
| spiked:13/12c shoes: Brooks Cascadia |
| Team Trials classic - third good run in a row, quite unusual. Very rocky ground, very happy with trail shoes for cushioning. Unhappy w/ route choice on #2 since i did not do what I had decided to do (run around to left on phone line vs over top & deal with the myriad paths). Went to 4 before 3, did not realize I did so until I got to three, then back to four (reward is spiking more controls than there were). Lost less than I thought I suppose as 4 was enroute but RC to three was higher, on road - entire area was as rocky as it gets. Most pleased that left groin strain did not worsen, at all, & did not affect - could feel it driving down with pollen-induced coughing etc. Beat TIm P & Glen T by some seconds. All in all, excellent weekend, great maps, weather, effort by DVOA.
Episode of the flat tire, AAA taking nearly 3 hrs, well past bedtime to fix, getting caught by local police driving wrong way on 1 way to save seconds to get to bed sooner (lost some 12' there) - to bed by 1150, no ticket.... |

 | orienteering race 35:36 [4]*** 3.72 km (9:34 / km) +150m 7:58 / km | |
| spiked:12/14c |
| Middle Distance 3.72k, 150m climb. Perfect weather, good course in generally green woods, well-mapped. Good run, less than 1' mistakes on 1 & 6. Best green x time (9.57'/k) Parking in field very much reminded me of a European meet, all the sun as well. Visited boulder field after, incredible work of nature 15-20,000yrs ago. |
