orienteering 1:00:00 [4] 7.69 km (7:48 / km)
ahr:167 max:177
PTOC red course at Wyandotte County.
Some snow on the ground made the footing a bit tricky, but not too bad. I struggled a lot to get up the big hill from 8 to 9. At one point I ended up having to back down and try again.
Matt S. beat me by 4+ minutes. I think it is a mix of Matt running faster and probably getting up the big hill a bit better than me. But, I can push myself a bit harder, too.
The map is new, sort of. The old map had more fieldchecking. The new map has the new trails and uses 5 meter contours rather than 3 meter contours.
The last control was a bit screwed up. The circle was at a powerline pole and so was the control. But the control was at a different place - the junction of two powerlines. Before I went out, they sketched the correct location in on my map. I made the mistake of trying to head straight to the control. That meant I got hung up in some really crappy vegetation. It'd have been faster to run the road.

Nice meal with maprunner and eelgrassman at AB's afterwards.

rowing 20:00 [1]
Thought about a short jog but settled for a short row.
cycling 45:00 [1]
Work commute. Took a bit of a chance given the forecast for snow in the afternoon. A bit of snow fell as I walked back to the office from lunch. But the snow stopped (maybe to start up again tonight). My ride home was in a light mist with a 33 F temp. Nice.

The usual work commute.

Broke a good sweat. I thought the little bit of exercise would wake me up. It didn't. Now I'm trying to stay awake through the first half of the KU - Colorado game.

cycling 45:00 [1]
Work commute. The return trip was a bit sketchy because a little snow fell during the afternoon. I managed to get through a couple of slushy spots without any trouble.
No O' technique today.

Fun.
