Orienteering 1:07:30 [3] *** 4.9 km (13:47 / km) +175m 11:41 / km
spiked:8/12c

Overall I really liked the course and the woods (except for the unbreakable vines).

3- Rough bearing, let the ditches near the path funnel me in to main ditch and took that downhill to the stream. aimed off to the left to hit the gully, then followed it up towards control. At the end of the gully I wasn't paying attention to my compass and took a minute to find the control.

7- My plan was to drop down to the trail and then the foot path and take a bearing off the bend in the path using the ditch as a handrail. That all worked out fine but when I got near the control circle I was pulled to the reentrant north of 7.

10- Left nine following keeping the hill on my left until the second gully. Then I went between the two marshes and straight up the hill. When I got to the trail I did not spend enough time figuring out where exactly I was. I ended up waaayyy too far west of 10. I decided to relocate after 3 min of looking (grrr... im kinda stubborn) on the trail to the east. I ended up relocating on a rootstock and small mash. After that I found ten pretty quickly.

12- Started out fine but I got pulled to the left by a blue runner and it wouldn't have been too bad (it made sense to aim off anyways) if I hadn't spent the time to look at the control he was going to in the gully.

Still resting. My cold (flu?) got a lot worse so I left school after a big test I had first period.

Turns out I have a muscle contusion in my chest, so I won't do anything for a few days.

Futsal 55:00 [4]
(injured)

One of the most exciting games I've ever played! So much to say...

First off, it was the league playoffs. We were third seed and the team we were playing was second. It was a really hard game but we played SO well. We went into the game with a strong mindset since we were playing up, but they scored two goals right off the bat. Amazingly, we were able to catch up by the end of the first half. Then, they scored THREE goals in less than five minutes as soon as the second half started. Again, we somehow came back with consistency and a lot of screaming from the bench. We scored the final goal to tie the game with two minutes left. Two. Because it was a playoff game we went into 5 minute overtime sudden death; first goal wins. I was playing during this and it was so stressful, but I know it would have been worse if I was on the bench unable to do anything. No one had scored by the end of overtime so it went to PKs. Now it was up to our goalie. Our first two girls didn't even shoot on target, but our goalie was able to stop their two shots (YES!). Then I was up, and I made the first goal!!! The next shot was saved by our goalie, we scored again (yay!), and we were at the last shot. If she scored, we had to keep shooting, if our goalie stopped her shot, we won! And we did! I'm really happy right now :)

Oh, injury btw. See injury description >>
