orienteering race 1:06:06 [4] *** 5.62 mi (11:45 / mi) +101m 11:08 / mi
ahr:156 max:174 17c

PTOC event at Hodge Park. I think Mike Shifman designed the course.

The park is overgrown by bush honeysuckle and has a dense trail network. It makes for some interesting legs and options.

Chilly (46F) and light rain most of the run. I had some troubles seeing the map. I'm much better at orienteering with rain that I was a few years ago. I miss the old days when my eyes were ok and I loved running in the rain.

One control wasn't in the right spot or there was something screwy with the map (or both?). From my GPS track it looks like I spent 4:30 looking around before I found the flag. I wasn't moving quickly and got a little cold at that point. Fortunately, I warmed up quickly once I got moving.

Lots of fun. I think this was only the 3rd time I've orienteered there (once about 5-6 years ago and one night event).

MTB cycling 50:00 [1]

A short and easy bike ride. A couple of hills and a little time fighting the wind made it a little tiny bit harder than easy.

running 50:00 [2]

On West Campus trails.

They've cleared even more of the woods for the new building.

Warm today. I was worried I'd feel bad because of the smoke, but I didn't notice any smoke. Maybe it all blew past?

Easy jog to warm up.

orienteering 55:00 [4] *** 5.9 km (9:19 / km)
ahr:160 14c

Eric Shumaker set today's course at Woodridge.

It was warm, sunny and windy.

I worked pretty hard. Some junky terrain and deep grass.

Satisfied to be less than 2 behind Dean and less than 1 behind Tom.
