Orienteering 57:00 [3]
shoes: IceBugs

A tough race. I had a hard time understanding the rock features. I had 2-3 big errors. In retrospect, I think they were due to poor plans or indecision between planned routes.

I managed to squeeze in a late night run after 3 long days at work. I'm still fighting this cold, but it seems to be getting better.

Orienteering 52:00 [2]
shoes: Falcons #2

Skipped the morning session, and was almost late for the afternoon run. Awesome course. I was still feeling bad from the head cold, but even if I was well I wouldn't have moved faster today. I am very, very slow in rocky areas like that. I think I had a decent run. Lots of hesitations and map reading stops. I had problems with cp 10 the center of a butterfly, which I visited 3 times.

Route choice run. I cheated a bit by taking trails for a couple of hundred meters, but I was feeling really lousy with a head cold and I didn't want to be late for the next session.

K2 downhill o'ing. Despite the pounding head, I really enjoyed this exercise. This is really the only o'ing exercise of the weekend that I think I could have done faster if I had been well. I really couldn't run the uphills at all. The navigation downhill was a lot of fun. I was pretty clean except for a big error in the mess of re-entrants on the west side of the map, which is the same area where I had a massive error during the middle race last fall!

Mt Nemo control picking and fog training. A really challenging and fun exercise. I found the navigation really difficult. Afterwards I felt that this was another reminder that I have no natural talent for this sport, BUT I'm getting better.

Cycling 40:00 [2]

Only last week I was bragging at work,"I'm bullet-proof - I never get sick". Now I feel like I'm coming down with a cold. The cold, wet ride home didn't help. Hubris!

I really enjoyed the OOA board meeting. It is great to hear about all the hard work the board is doing for the Ontario O'ing community. It is not an easy job, and it often goes unthanked. I appreciate it! Thanks!

I got out for a long session at Dryden Tract while the trails were still dry. I felt great after the first hour of o'ing, and didn't start to feel fatigued until the last 10 minutes of the run. I lost 2-3 weeks of running in March with a careless fall on my xc skis, but I'm feeling pretty good right now. I need to avoid those pesky injuries.

Helping out today with the GRR has motivated me to start getting in some longer runs and prepare to race the next raid. The weather was phenomenal, and the race was really exciting from the side lines.
