Orienteering 1:20:25 [3] ***** 7.9 km (10:11 / km) +100m 9:34 / km
spiked:10/14c shoes: X-Talon 212

Chenango streamer course w/ no compass, memory-O, Brighton State Rec Area. This was a tough one to do w/o a compass, especially some controls in the green like 3 and 4. After that got in to a good groove.

Trail run on Milford mountain bike trail. Lots of switchbacks, and had no idea how long it would last. Nice trail, perfect cool and cloudy weather for it.

Note

Got official word I am selected to the Armed Forces USA team for the 2017 World Military Orienteering Championships! But since I'm a reservist I have to be activated, and so far nobody is willing to cough up 7 measly days of orders so I can attend... going to be a really sour situation if that's the only reason I can't go, especially after all the work getting back into the sport. ugh.

Orienteering 1:13:00 [4] ***** 7.1 km (10:17 / km) +250m 8:45 / km
spiked:5/9c shoes: X-Talon 212

Meeman-Shelby Forest, TN. Hot, humid. And forgot how tough it can be to use USGS quads for orienteering! Have to ignore half of what you see becuase it doesn't show on the map. And of course you go in half blind too with so much not mapped. Good training. Very steep hills in some places. Quite limited visibility since vegetation is already thick down here.

Stairs hike up Seven Falls w/ daughter in backpack carrier, then beautiful nature trail hikes at top and beyond after that. Perfect evening for it.

Orienteering 28:10 [3] *** 4.0 km (7:03 / km) +100m 6:16 / km
spiked:11/12c shoes: X-Talon 212

Course setting / field checking Peaceful Valley CSOL championship Orange. Hopefully there aren't herds of cattle mobbing a control during the event like happened today. Hopefully the electrical fences aren't up like they were today. Map is mostly accurate but some trails have disappeared and as usual this western US mapping is challenged by the trees situation. This will probably be a challenging orange course but given that its a championship race that's probably the way it should be. Course will be 4.6 km w/ 125m climb which will separate the fast orienteers from the just fast runners.

CY17 control goal count = 522

Orienteering 30:00 [1] 1.0 km (30:00 / km)

Orienteering 25:11 [3] ** 3.73 km (6:45 / km) +50m 6:20 / km
spiked:12/12c shoes: X-Talon 212

Course setting / field checking Peaceful Valley Ranch CSOL championship Yellow course. A few places with good route choice moments and a few places that will reward those who choose handrails or x-country off the trails, but trails are always still an option. Will be a true Yellow at 2.8 km and 75m climb max.

Orienteering 30:00 [0]

Course designing for CSOL championships, and also finally got around to Armchair-O'ing the 2016 World Military Championships Long course in Brazil. Also worked on my training plan for 2017 World Military Championships. With my spring natl's season now complete, time to take a breather and re-evaluate where I'm at and how to prepare for the military champ's. Assuming we get a budget passed USA may be going so I should probably focus on more deliberate prep in case I'm going too.
