all done tho may move a control after some more reflection. Map is in amazing shape for being 18 yrs old. Its in better shape than some 3 year old maps. But, its still 18 years old. Might as well write the cs notes so I don't forget. Some areas are greener than mapped, and the visibility poorer than expected. One clearing has had in influx of saplings in both the white and the open land that would probably be mapped with either light or med green. They are passable, but the area looks kinda different in places. Some of the mapped rocks are smaller than the 1m standard. One of the creeks in the area is generally mapped as uncrossable, yet is generally crossable (at least I've never hit it at a place I would describe as uncrossable). There are bears in the park. I've never encountered any, but other orienteers have seen them. This can be a difficult area, but I find it fun, interesting, and challenging. The penalty for losing contact can be quite severe. [It is a virtual certainty that this paragraph hits the cutting room floor]. | ||

got dropped at 25 minutes. Ouch. And the Icelandic schnapps went over like the proverbial lead zeppelin (but I guess this was expected). At least the food and company were good. | ||

that's a bit better. Perhaps its 'cause I'm totally stressed out about HR. I'm contemplating blowing off this saturday's planned visit so I might have better chances of a decent race at FC on sunday. I think my last race I was truly happy with was day 1 at Zermatt, or day 3 at WMOC (or the mispunch in Croatia). That's a long time in what was shaping up to be my best season of racing both technically and physically. It just shows that when you lose focus (either due to the other goals (and execution) of travel, coursesetting, or other projects), it affects results. The one saving grace about being below the radar is that no one is publically questioning my motivation or training during a period of lame results, as if anyone has the perrogative to do that for anyone, on or below the radar. | ||
| C • No, you are not that far below the radar... 4 | ||

| misery loop 1
ribs a bit sorer than expected this morning; time still a bit slower than expected. Is it true that you get systemically tired over a season, and just have to rest for a week or two? You hear that in baseball -- pitchers being tired at the end of the season. I've never believed it, but I suppose it is possible. | ||
