| Reprise of the 4/24 Night-O, in the daytime. Not really any easier, especially near the end of the course where the contours were USGS quality... ech (added a star for that.) Not to mention the wait-a-minute bushes. Oh, and the complete absence of anything to tell me I was at the right control location, except for sketchy contours. Completely soaked through at the end but at least it was warm enough.

| Pretty solid orienteering courses (2x, one yellow/orange level and one green level) during the REI Mad Dash AR in Madison. Walked the 2nd course with my team and still beat some of the running teams ;) |
| MTB (road) race (Adv Race) 3:50:00 [3] ** 40.0 mi (5:44 / mi) | |

| Road bike section of REI Mad Dash AR. 15-20 mph west wind and sleet was enough to keep the drivers home, never mind the bikers. Without a doubt the crappiest AR weather I've had to date. |

| Paddle out to an O-course, return the same way on Lake Mendota in Madision WI. Due to wind it was twice as long in as out (1+ ft chop, stiff headwind and sleet moving in.) VERY cold. |
| Ropes race (Adv Race) 20:00 [4] | |

| Big climbing wall and zip line at the REI Mad Dash AR. Tiring but fun. |
