Orienteering race 1:37:34 [4] *** 9.1 km (10:43 / km) +410m 8:45 / km
spiked:17/18c shoes: Icebug MR3 (2007, orange)
Blue Day 2. Climb didn't seem as bad but it was still impressive. Only one major mistake when I let concentration lapse for a moment. I really have to stop doing that.
Hiking 30:00 [1] 2.0 mi (15:00 / mi) +270m 10:34 / mi
shoes: Salomon XA Pro 3D (2006, black
Visited Stone Mountain outside ATL with Ian "Billy-Bob" Harding. Took the tram to the top and walked down the east slope and back along the base below the north face. A little worried about my fellow hiker, as he seemed to be gazing a little too reverentially at the massive bas-relief of the Heroes of the Confederacy - as the brochure proudly states, BIGGER THAN MOUNT RUSHMORE. I guess there's still some hard feelings against Mr. Lincoln.
Event: Georgia Navigator Cup
Orienteering race 1:40:59 [4] *** 9.55 km (10:34 / km) +460m 8:31 / km
spiked:17/21c shoes: Icebug MR3 (2007, orange)
Nice course at Sweetwater Creek, but the climb was brutal. Made a pair of 3-5 minute mistakes on 4-5 and 6-7, but recovered and ran the rest of the course pretty cleanly. Unusual blue course in that we had a map exchange after 11.
Orienteering race (sprint) 19:54 [4] *** 2.28 km (8:44 / km) +35m 8:06 / km
spiked:9/12c shoes: Icebug MR3 (2007, orange)
US Team fundraiser sprint. Legs were a little wobbly and limited my speed/effort to 4 (footing wasn't real open either.) Made mistakes on 3 and 6, enough for Ian to close the gap on me at 7 (he started 1min after me), but seeing him gave me a little extra boost. Not that good a run - too many mistakes for a sprint.
