| line-o back up at pink lake... and it wasn't raining this time!!! woohoo!!!
really tricky, but super duper nice woods for most of the map. got totally utterly completely lost at one point and didn't figure out where i was... for a while. i'd be sure that i was in one spot, and then 30sec later, i'd realize that i was actually somewhere completely different... not so great relocation skills...
still fun to be out though... just wish there weren't so many bugs!! |

| almost another PR, missed it by 3 sec.
had a really great race, keeping up to my two biggest all time rivals right up until the end where they pulled away a few meters. might've had a faster time but i got really confused at the end cause they hadn't flipped the number of laps left by the time i got out onto the straightaway... and so when i saw the 1 still left on the board, and i couldn't remember if i had heard the bell the last time or not... and didn't really start sprinting hard until bout 10m from the finish. |

| really great warmup before the race |
| running 1:00:00 [3] | |
| |
| was late coming home from tutoring and so i had to sprint down to where we were all meeting... and then we did our warmup with felt pretty fast... and then the workout was running up this hill fast and then jogging back down was supposed to be the rest. it started out alright... started out with a slight incline, then the actual hill but then, once we got to the top, we had to keep running for what seemed like forever down to Flower St. and then the 'rest' interval... didn't seem very resting. did that 6.5 times and it was really tough, cause we never actually stopped running at all. was so glad to finally finish them all... but then we had to run all the way back and my legs were just like lead weights!! |

| cycling 3:20:00 [2] | |
| |
| Set up a little score-o for the venturers... which meant biking down to vincent massey, biking around the park to put out all the controls... which weren't really controls... it would've been too easy, so i used pieces of duct tape with a letter on it. then i biked around for the whole hr they were o-ing to help them when they needed... and then since duct tape is not biodegradable and i would've felt bad just leaving it there so i went and picked up all the controls and then biked home... holy macaroni!!! |

| |
| a new PR!!!!! WOOHOO!!!!!! by 2 seconds, i beat my time from EOSSA last year!!!! hooray!!!! and i didn't kill myself on any of the barriers... or fall in the waterpit!!!! took the lead right at the beginning, and then just cruised through the rest of the race cause nobody was threatening me... it was just me 150m ahead of everybody else... alright!!! |

| orienteering race 36:34 [4] 5 km (7:19 / km) | |
| |
| Had a super duper great race!!! a bit tricky with all of the trails, but i just tried to ignore the ones that i didn't need and that worked alright. made a little bit of a mistake one 2, going a bit too far to the north and having to come back to the control. the contour interval of 1.5m was weird... cause the hills on the map looked massive, but then in real life... they weren't really very big at all! saw ian on the way to 9 which was quite a surprise since he was supposed to be going back to the finish. so stopped to help him get back to the finish with some sketchy directions like 'ok go back to the main trail... turn left... then right... " so i was a bit worried for the rest of the race that he wasn't going to be able to find his way back, but once i had finished, i saw him wayyyy far down the trail just mosying along back. |
| orienteering race 18:19 [4] | |
| |
| great race... except for the last control... i was in the right area, but i couldn't find the control, so then i ended up over running it and it just didn't work out at all!!!! nailed all the rest of the controls though and just didn't feel so fast going back through the field |
