Note

Among the top five in today's race, the more time you lost, the better you placed. Sad, really.
9 AM

orienteering race 1:37:36 intensity: (1:11 @1) + (1:12 @2) + (5:54 @3) + (56:34 @4) + (32:45 @5) 14.13 km (6:54 / km)
ahr:171 max:189 26c

Most of this race went well, running faster than usual and no mistakes until one balls of a control at the end.

Event: Hickory Run
 
9 AM

orienteering race 14:30 intensity: (11 @1) + (8 @2) + (22 @3) + (9:02 @4) + (4:47 @5) 2.87 km (5:04 / km)
ahr:172 max:190 17c

Fairly straightforward sprint, straight line was usually the best option. The green was runnable for the most part. No major mistakes, a few hesitations and a weave or two. It was cold and I hadn't warmed up properly.

11 AM

orienteering race 34:58 intensity: (21 @1) + (42 @2) + (4:59 @3) + (7:13 @4) + (21:43 @5) 5.08 km (6:53 / km)
ahr:174 max:191 16c

Not impressed with this. Too many mistakes. For the first time in ages I checked codes of three controls that weren't on my course (and I knew were not on my course). Amateur.

Wore short tights instead of O-pants for fun, like in the sprint, since the sprint had been so runnable. Got whipped for my stupidity, not sure if it slowed me down much.

ahr:141 max:165

a few drills, then a jog on the Silver Lake trails and back. Not overly confident downhilling on damp, leafy, rocky trails in the dark.

ahr:134 max:162

Out to Croton Dam and back, a lot more water going down the cascades tonight. It's a pretty place. Raining and dark, had the roads to myself.

Nice run, spent a lot of time thinking about convolutions, didn't make much progress. Coming up the hill on the way back, about 1h20 in, I felt a bit dodge.

Note

Added gps routes to Routegadget for the Fall Foliage weekend. Control 14 on the long and a few controls in the middle are entertaining. There is a bit of distortion in the middle, eg. 12->13 I ran on the path for a bit and came in over the knoll (I didn't want to do that, and was surprised it happened...

Note

Controls in the US since September 1st: 305 in two months... not quite on course for 2000 in a year...
