Event: OCIN Flying Pig XXI
9 PM
Orienteering Meet 1:40:29 *** 10.46 km (9:36 / km) +70m 9:18 / km
ahr:123 max:169 spiked:18/21c shoes: Icebug green #5
US Night O champs... well based on splits I was leading the Green Course till control 6. My head lamp died at no 5 control.
My fault for not testing out my headlamp.
luckly I caught super fast and at control 5 my headlamp died.
Superfast Chris gave me his 100 luman pen light. This turned into a disaster....but after a few controls I worked this low light program and finished the course. Lots of roads and trails were available for use.
Control no 9 was a serious bingo control, I was within 15 feet before I saw it.
I was just happy to finish. Wished I did the middle event earlier and ran this recreational, but I didn't.
Like I said my fault for not testing out my headlamp. After draining and charging twice the battery lasted only 29 minutes.
Still enjoyed the event with my mini pen light!

Note
Very interesting what happened st Deer Grove forest preserve yesterday.
They the cook county forest district put on a learn to orienteer clinic. At the same place we are denied a permit to host a meet.
Maricel who lives close by went to it. Of course it was some lame compass instruction with a trail map. NOT our orienteering map or we could of blackmailed them for future permits.
Just crazy!

Lakewood forest preserve on a great April day... or should I say we didn't get rained upon.
7.3 k course
My line straight was 8.9k
4 controls were technical the rest sorta of orange level. It's just the map. The woods were pretty thick, but the fields were decent to run in. Did almost kill myself in a small hawthorn forest. Reminded myself I have a few of those left in my property to delete, one big one real soon!
Good workout and 10 of us went out after.

Road Riding 1:22:00 [3] 17.0 mi (4:49 / mi)
Ride to Starbucks from house first time 4.25 miles.
Well my card for a free drink didn't work so I rode back home and back again. Had the large frappe then rode back very full.
Not quite the plan but worked fine.
