Rainy & Cool

Lapping was Day 21 out of 52 on the meet goal

Event: OLOU Summer Sprint Series #3
 

Meet director for the meet at Lapping Park. We never draw well there so only printed 25 maps. Ended up with 37 coming out. We had to recycle quite a few maps. Just going to have to print more in the future. Weather was ideal.
I also need to adjust the line thicknesses on these sprint maps in the future, the map would be a lot crisper and easy to read. We have several that are 1:10,000 that we print out at 1:4,000 for the sprints.

Went out to Otter Creek to help with the pickup. Grabbed 12 controls that were all new to me on the Northern part of the map. A couple were difficult because you had to be within 5 Meters to even see the control due to the thick vegetation. The weather was so much better than on Saturday. Today was all about fighting the green wall.

Rest Day - very sore, my feet in particular. Special thanks to Bruce for arranging the Mad Otter.

Event: OLOU - The Mad Otter 2017
 

6hr Rogaine at Otter Creek. My time was inflated by about 15 minutes
due to me failing to punch finish and the results crew was trying to produce 6 hr winners. Interesting meet. Due to the hot & humid conditions I drank roughly 2 gallons and went thru two packages of electrolyte gel chews. Stopped and took several photos along the way. Had to redo the dressing on the injured foot. Amazing all the old buildings that are beginning to fall down.

Setting 11 controls mainly on bike some foot.

Pumped up bike & oiled chain. Took it on a test spin. I'm going to try and set controls tomorrow at Otter Creek. Bike making a grinding noise. I will need to see if I can figure out the cause.
