Orienteering 22:45 1.22 mi (18:39 / mi) +65m 16:00 / mi
ahr:132 max:159
Setting out controls in blueberry land, also a few other places. Do have to own up to accidentally breaking a control stand by pushing it in by the SI unit. Even if uncomfy the top of the metal rod is the right option...
Running 3:31 0.48 mi (7:16 / mi)
ahr:139 max:156
Orienteering 12:10 0.71 mi (17:08 / mi) +57m 13:43 / mi
ahr:122 max:155
Setting out some nice friendly nearby controls, goes quickly!
Running 2:15 0.28 mi (8:01 / mi)
ahr:123 max:139
Orienteering 7:10 0.71 mi (10:05 / mi) +23m 9:10 / mi
ahr:141 max:167
Setting one last lonely control out the east!
Cycling 12:13 1.36 mi (8:59 / mi) +46m 8:08 / mi
ahr:128 max:158
Water delivery to some far away controls... and ran into Dartmouth friends Courtney and Tom, who I haven't seen in ages, including since they had 2 kids who were also present. Their names: Kepler and Peak. Kinda awesome =). I mean, if you like astronomy and mountain climbing... Totally people I should have tried getting more into orienteering though, but now they're moving to colorado- boulder area, anyone want to adopt them?

Orienteering race 44:09 3.43 mi (12:52 / mi) +186m 11:01 / mi
ahr:169 max:181 13c
And the Green course, because I wimped out on Red and just kinda felt like a nice more medium-distanced challenge, which it was. Although, occasionally, especially early on, less of a challenge, as I'd set the controls...
Comparing with Brendan afterwards, some not-great route choices. Out to the road was better to 4, by ~30s and so was road route to 7, which is kind of not indicated fully that it should be on the map. Some unmapped greenbriar nastiness (my way) and a nice trail leading nearly to the control (Brendan's way). I also existed 11 quite poorly, and did not make perfect sense (perhaps because of an extra trail) of the immediate approach to 12, ran past it, I think... QR should tell exactly, but that's for tomorrow...

Collecting controls on in. Way more hands on pick-up, went quickly, yeah team!
And that's a wrap for team-fundraising meet, thanks to NEOC for letting us do it, and Alex for being awesome doing almost all the work for it, planning courses + organizing. Meg was also great, added control-setting out hands at 8am = so crucial!! Hope everyone enjoyed, thanks for coming!
