Shadowing 1:05:00 [1] ***
College Woods. Followed Stephen to the first two controls on the White course, and when I established that he was doing fine, I let him got off on his own, and went back to the start for Rachel. She is ailing (a cold or something), but went out for her first attempt at Orange. Walking pace, and I coached, discussed routes with her, discussed what we were seeing in the terrain, and made some recommendations for more challenging route choices, just for the practice. Since she wasn't feeling well, and needed to get to her ballet performance, we shortcutted the course by omitting the four controls in the middle that looked to be in a cruftier section of the terrain. She did quite well navigating, which should help her confidence to try Orange on her own
Bicycling 48:31 [3] 13.66 mi (3:33 / mi)
Old/New West Townsend loop. on the Incubus road bike. I think that's the first time I've ridden that bike outdoors, and it's certainly a fine piece of machinery.
