Walking 28:00 [1] 2.4 km (11:40 / km)

DT early.

Orienteering race 1:01:08 intensity: (20:00 @3) + (41:08 @4) **** 5.95 km (10:16 / km) +140m 9:12 / km
spiked:12/13c

Ventured out (1:40 drive) to America's Dairyland and was rewarded with some nice O. Warm day with temps in the high 70s. Didn't feel macho enough, and not enough time anyhow, for a goat length course. Said hi to a few familiar faces and watched the mass start. Went for green myself and that provided sufficient satisfaction. A nice course vetted by Mike and Julia, with generally runnable terrain. Reminiscent of NH glacial terrain but without the rock features, so lots of attention to positive and negative contour features was required. Smooth and steady (honest effort but not super fast) and maybe a minute lost (AP may show clean) getting a tad offline on the way 4 (couldn't locate the indistinct trail but had good map contact otherwise) and on way to last control had to turn right about 40m. Will predict the 14.4 k for the goat winner a tad under 2 hours and for most it will be a long hot day in the saddle. SL 5.3 km.

Just perfect out with 80F slight breeze, so no excuse but to get another track session in. Days are numbered I fear. Decided on a VO2 session and 6x400 at mile pace with 200m (2min) recovery. Despite travel fatigue this went better than expected as follows:
86.1
86.3
84.9 (started to relax at this point)
84.9
83.7
80.0
Avg = 84.3

Note

Slo to go today but at least back at home- almost coast to coast yesterday NYC-DEN-MSP.
WOTD: Nidification
TOTD: For multi-factorial reasons, Orienteering in the US is destined to become an evermore dwindling fringe sport- someone care to prove me wrong?
