| Setting controls for nIght O (in the light); then running around in dark checking on folks out on the course; then control pick up (all no compass terrain association only). Awesome night O experience. Nice temperature, good topography, clear and starry night sky, half moon, frogs calling strongly, owls hooting away, deer crashing away in the dark! S'mores at teh fire pit ... SI punching wokred well once we got the start time figured out and everyone entered in right). Note i am NOT logging the arm curls after the event (some folks in MPls area might do that but .....) |
