Orienteering race 21:53 [4] 2.1 mi (10:25 / mi) +80m 9:19 / mi
BFLO Camp Schoelkopf Sprint
Solid run. Took the popular, but unmapped trail from 2 to 3. Took the unmapped trail from the clearing to the road from 5 to 6 for a slight bobble. Took trails all the way to 7 (which might have been optimal.) Went via the dike to 8 and it was straightforward after that.
4th overall. Tom won in 18:19. Dave Cady (19:55) also beat me.

BFLO Camp Schoelkopf Red Course
Quickly noticed that the course was fourteen legs of roughly equal distance and set my goal of 5 min/leg and was never more than 2.5 minutes off that until the very finish. Probably cut in a bit soon to #1, was a bit sloppy to #4 and drifted right to #11, ultimately hitting the band of yellow to the right, but there were no real goofs. The GO control was common with the sprint and I was only 3 seconds slower than my earlier run. All in all, I'll take it. Tom won in 54:18, but I came in third and no one else broke 60, so...

Schoelkopf control pickup.
Got #1-3 on the Red, plus a nearby Orange control. Tom W. gave me a ride down the road to the parking lot near #1. It was a 45 second walk to the control. (That was probably the winning route choice.) It was interesting to see that my times to #2 and #3 walking when I could recognize my route, weren't all that far off from my original running times. Of course, herd paths helped.

Dragon (Coin) Hunting on the Outpost (Tactics)
Went straight to the Blue pillar and did well, but then tried new strategies that didn't work as well. Still made top half overall and age group; still the better of two at the Y. P:136; C:51.

Fruitdale course
Wanted to beat my PR so I tried to get a lead on my ghost and slowly open it up. Near the end, I made a half-hearted effort at breaking 12 minutes, but slacked off once I missed, probably costing myself two seconds. Top 5% overall; top 10% age group (missed top 5% by seven seconds); #1 all-time at the Y (out of 45), doubling my margin over #2 to 41 seconds. P:267; C:59

City Express course.
Wanted to break 15 minutes, but with a PR of 16:21, that was never really going to happen. Rode hard and I did make progress. This completes the third phase of my yearly challenge to ride all the courses; only the easy ones to go! Top 10% overall; top 15% age group; 3rd all-time at the Y (out of 33) - 36 seconds out of first. P:242; C:55
