Running warm up/down (Warm-up) 6:00 [2] 1.0 km (6:00 / km)
Blue Mountain, CO. Warm-up on the road and around the start for Day 2 of the Colorado 5-Day.
Orienteering race (Forest) 1:19:51 [4] **** 6.24 km (12:48 / km) +300m 10:19 / km
spiked:6/9c
Colorado 5-Day: Day 2 at Blue Mountain, CO. A poor showing for me. I boomed 31:11 on the first control--it should have taken 6 minutes but I kept running up and down reentrants and missing. I had lessor troubles at the end of legs 6 and 7 also. Altogether, errors added up to about 29 minutes...
Running warm up/down (Warm-up) 6:00 [3] 1.0 km (6:00 / km)
Warm-up near the start area for the US Night-O Championships at Manitou Lake Experimental Forest, north of Woodland Park, CO.
Orienteering race (Night-O) 1:20:06 [4] ***** 5.93 km (13:30 / km) +175m 11:46 / km
spiked:6/11c
US Night-O Championships at Manitou Lake Experimental Forest, north of Woodland Park, CO. The course would have been tough for a daylight run. The first few controls in the detailed parallel reentrants had reasonable catching features but #5 and #6 were harder. The vegetation was poorly mapped if at all and there was plenty of debris on the early part of the course to make running fast hazardous. I had a big error at #6. My battery didn't charge properly so I did most of the event on low power (5 watts). The last half of the course was easier. Sam Listwak had the best finish for QOC, beating out Ted Good and myself. He even beat Eddie Bergeron. The winners finished in the low 50 minute range.
