Orienteering (Little Bennett Green) 1:30:00 [3] 5.5 km (16:22 / km) +160m 14:17 / km
shoes: Silva K80 1

Another early start - trails rutted and crusty. Legs a little tired from yesterday, but I enjoyed the time in the woods. Actual distance traveled was 4.8 miles.
This is the route from my ForeRunner 201. The weirdness at the start was a little warm-up.

Orienteering (Little Bennett) 2:34:07 [3] 9.0 mi (17:07 / mi) +345m 15:18 / mi
shoes: Silva K80 2

Needed to vet the White/Yellow controls since they had been out in the park all week since the meet was postponed. Had to meet the team to hand off the electronic controls, so decided to make this a long workout. Ran the White, Yellow, Orange in order with <2 minutes rest in between. Was breaking trail for all of the White and Yellow courses.
White 2.8k 70m 31:25
Yellow 4.3k 130m 54:35
Orange 4.8k 145m 68:07

Trail Run 27:18 [2] 2.0 mi (13:39 / mi)
weight:186lbs shoes: Silva K80 2

Run in to the start (12:37) and the slog back (14:41) when I was done. Beautiful day. Needed more water, and a GU would have been helpful too.

Running (Track) 38:38 [3] 4.09 mi (9:27 / mi)
shoes: Saucony Hurricane 5 Men's

Snowing and 36 out. My usual wimping out scenario. But since I have registered for a 50k in March, I figured I ought to pretend I am training for it.
So, out the door and head towards the high school. The lights are on at the track, and it is empty. I have no plan in mind and push the first mile. Too much as a warm up. Rest 1 minute and do another mile. Keep pushing because I figure they are going to come and kick me off at any minute. End up doing 4 miles with 1 minute rest between. Splits are 1032 (1.08 mile) 924 924 918. Great fun in the snow - just about .5-1" on the track.

Walking (Back home) 7:08 [1] 0.46 mi (15:31 / mi)
shoes: Saucony Hurricane 5 Men's

Orienteering (Control Pickup) 2:25:00 [2] 10.4 km (13:57 / km) +300m 12:11 / km
weight:189lbs shoes: Silva K80 1

Played hookey from work today and picked up 26/40 electronic controls from Little Bennett. Sam is getting the rest tomorrow. We'll reprogram Saturday morning and put them out for the rescheduled event on Sunday. Beautiful day in the mid-high 30s. Snow on the ground from 1-3 inches - mostly firm. No trails to speak of since the park is closed for the winter, so I headed cross country most of the time. One major error on the control I expected to have problems with. A review of my GPS route shows that I was so close when I bailed out to the road, got another control, and swung back around to it. This is the route from my ForeRunner 201.
