A morning run through the neighborhood with Carol. It was a little chilly but not too bad. I felt a little slow today, but nothing hurt, which is always good.

Core Conditioning 30:00 [1]
Just a little something today because my teeth hurt. I had the top set of my new braces put on today, and there is a bit of pain going on. My dentist was a little concerned with the shifting of my teeth, and he suggested I go this route or risk winding up being a snaggle-toothed old lady. So, I chose to do it now so Graham and I could go through it together. Now that's motherly devotion for you.

Event: Mid-Atlantic Championships
Orienteering race 59:09 [4] *** 5.26 km (11:15 / km) +240m 9:09 / km
Green course at McKeldin, MD, for the Mid-Atlantic Champs. I was going to run Red, but after a late start from home and longer than expected drive, I dropped down to Green to ensure I would be done and ready for the relay. I had some sloppy navigating in the beginning and my legs felt tired for the first few controls because I had absolutely zero warm-up. But, it got better and I enjoyed the course. No after effects at all from my ankle twisting earlier in the week. The course was definitely hillier than what the course notes intimated.
Orienteering race 23:54 [4] *** 2.73 km (8:45 / km)
Afternoon sprint relay. Each leg was 2.1-2.7 km, and I was on a team with my sons, Tanner (16) and Graham (14). Tanner led off and because he DNF'ed on his earlier course, I was a little worried. I told him to just stay with the pack...and he did! He came in much sooner than I had expected, so that was great! And he had a good time. I went out on the second leg and things went much better than my first course. I hit the controls cleanly and felt like I was moving quite well. Although, my legs did feel a little tired. I'm not sure how I came in, placement-wise. Graham was our anchor leg and really had a fantastic run. He went out at the same time as Greg Lennon (M45) from our club, and finished with him, too! He even outsprinted Greg into the finish. Even though we came in 4th, behind 3 DVOA teams (argh!), we were the first QOC team (helped a little by a handicap for being female and young...guess which one applies to me!). So, a very fine day.
