Fun Green Course set by Wyatt Riley at Springton Manor (sing the song, doo-dah, doo-dah!).

Found 4 prior to 3 so refinding 3 was better. Some trouble on 5, but I relocated off a charcoal platform. 6 also - needed to relocate off a trail/gully intersection. 8 was tricky, there was an army looking at all the boulders in the area. Got caught in the swamp on the way to 10, so I fought my way through the thicket and stone wall to a field border. All the others, I felt pretty happy about.

My basic goal for each event is to finish in the top half of green - hopefully that happened.

Time to ice the achilles!

Rehid a letterbox and planted a new one.

What do you call this?

Cello? Wyatto? RileyO?

Basically a white level fun walking course that you read off of your smart phone:

Ran into a very lost scout at control 4 and showed him how to follow the black dashed lines to find the remaining controls. His phone was having trouble re-rendering the pdf file, but I think it was because he was trying to do too much with it.

Saw the mighty Len powering through what I am guessing is red at the time.

I do love teaching kids this stuff.

Green - Splits

Special - Splits

I have learned that taking a down day before a race means no achilles tendon pain. So, just a lawn today...

60 minutes of spin to see how things feel. R achilles got a little tight about 45 minutes in and then felt better. I am glad I broke yesterday up into 3 manageable bites with some stretching.

After a drink of water post bike, time to cut the lawn.
