Event: West Point A-Meet
strength & stretching 28:34 [3]
Sprint - Missed my start time and when I went to get a new time, Janet said how about right now and I said sure. Probably not a good idea - I totally hosed the first 3 controls until I finally got my head into it. Also had a new experience - tried to read ahead and then got all confused because when I got to my control I was looking at the next one and so thought the control code was wrong. Teach me to look ahead! :)
orienteering race 38:56 [3]
A good outing. Slow to #1 - I guess the hike up to the start took a lot out of me. I was clean to #2 but I think going low was a better route. I was hesitant early on to #3 since I didn't realize quite how far south I went right out of the control but eventually reason prevailed and I just ran the hilltops until I sorted it out. The next several controls were fun but the sidehill and then the downhill at the end was tough on the knees.
