 | Orienteering Meet race 1:20:00 [4] *** 6.9 km (11:36 / km) | |
| spiked:12/13c |
| Deer Grove, and if you moved fast enough you could duck the mesquitos.
Not a bad run except on No. 10 I was all confused by the trail/stream crossings and had to bale to the big trails and work back down to the marsh. Slow split, but still good enough for 2nd to Maricel O. He was only 22 minutes faster than me. The woods were thick and some places scratchy. Some minor trails non-existent. I think the green course had more issues, but I had another first time course setter and I think he did a wonderfull job settimg courses. Oh did I mention my legs were dead from yesterdays 4 1/2 hour ride. Good news that the courses and map for the BBR ( Big Blues Ramble) are 80% complete. I think there gonna be kick ass courses and an awesome sprint. |

Well we have a time trial 3 mile section that I held the record of 8:29 so with a little tail wind Dave broke the record to 8:22, I hit 8:34 and after he passed me the I caught a bug in the mouth that I had to swallow or spit out. He was gone so maybe next time with a little more air in my tires.
