Still sick, but I was able to get about & about.

- Went to a college friend's housewarming party with awesome red beans & rice, biscuits, and beer. (And a nice new dog.)

Note
slept:10.0 weight:131lbs
Still sick. Slept for ~10 hours and gained another pound. I'm missing today's Woodland Park O-training AND the LoCO FIT spring season kick-off. Very annoyed.
Run / Hike 1:51:31 [3] 6.11 mi (18:15 / mi) +299ft 17:27 / mi
shoes: Brooks Adrenaline (2015)
Neighborhood walk.
I still don't feel great, but I hated to waste the nice weather.
Listened to Serial 2-05 and a recent Fresh Air (directors of Spotlight and The Big Short).
Neighborhood hawk, at least a foot long from head to tail feathers:

(sick)
I apparently got off the airplane with a cold. Ugh -- out of commission for a few days, which especially stinks in this nice weather. :-\

Orienteering race (Red course) 2:02:35 [3] 5.19 mi (23:37 / mi) +466ft 21:46 / mi
slept:8.0 shoes: Salomon Speedcross (2014)
1-2-3-4 went OK. Then I did something really dumb on my way to #5 (I think I had my map folded too small, but I still should've known I hadn't gone far enough to be on the correct trail at the base of the correct hill). Ugh.
The stupidity magnified itself on my way to #6. I struggled up a steep hillside with lots of prickly underbrush -- instead of just continuing to follow the trail. Obvious brain lapse.
Could have taken a more efficient route to get to the trail on my way to #9.
I got distracted by trying to outrun other people on the way to #11 and promptly lost contact with the map.
Sigh...

Run / Hike 23:35 [3] 1.03 mi (22:53 / mi) +56ft 21:46 / mi
slept:8.0 shoes: Salomon Speedcross (2014)
Walk to start.
Orienteering race (Red course) 2:38:31 [3] 6.01 mi (26:23 / mi)
shoes: Salomon Speedcross (2014)
Long Red course at Catalina State Park. I had planned to mostly walk, and I took time to snap some photos here and there -- so my overall time was pretty slow.
I got a little bit lost looking for #8, and took the opportunity to get this photo:
Run / Hike 15:17 [3] 0.72 mi (21:13 / mi)
shoes: Salomon Speedcross (2014)
Walk to Night-O start.
Orienteering race (Night-O) 1:47:08 [3] 3.73 mi (28:43 / mi) +272ft 26:52 / mi
shoes: Salomon Speedcross (2014)
Night-O course.
Due to mental doubts, I decided to skip #6 -- "it's too steep, it's too rocky, I probably won't make it back before the course closure time, what if I get hurt (I'm at the back of the pack and no one will find me)", etc.
I made it back with about 15 minutes to spare, and I found 7-13 without any issues. Oh well...

Walked from one end of DIA Concourse B to the other, and then back, to get some delicious soft pretzels.
