This was not quite as much fun as the night-O, mainly because I headed out too soon after eating breakfast. My stomach was not happy pretty much the entire race. That combined with very warm temps made it a death march at times. I had trouble on #4, where I question the mapping of the rock, but I eventually found it and that was the only control that gave me issues.

The view from one of my controls:



I didn't hang around too long after coming in because I had to get back to Denver to do my volunteer shift at the Botanic Gardens. It was a busy weekend!

Event: RMOC Buena Vista Two-Day Meet
 

Barre class before heading out to Buena Vista for an orienteering weekend. It should be fun...the weather is finally beautiful.

What a fun weekend of orienteering! It began with a night-O which went really well on several fronts, the most important of which was that I was not injured! I love night-O's, but considering how often I fall during the day, it's a little nerve wracking to go out in the dark, but all went well. I had a little trouble on the first control, and then it was fine after that. I thought I was moving pretty well, but Brooke beat me by a few minutes, so more work is needed.

Barre class with a new instructor. I had heard that she was good, but she wasn't really as tough as some others. On my way out of class, though, I saw another, new class going on in the other classroom...a Total Body Conditioning class that I used to take on Sunday mornings but stopped because that is really the only day I can sleep in. And it was the same instructor, who is really good. So, I think I'll switch out Wednesday barre class for the TBC class. Yay!

No training today because I had Lead Ambassador training at the Botanic Gardens tonight. Before the class, though, I picked up my first delivery of the CSA I joined this year. It's through the Botanic Gardens, from their location down at Chatfield, and it's the first CSA I've ever joined. I just wanted to be forced to try new vegetables instead of always sticking with the safe ones. The first delivery was a little lackluster due to all of the rain we've been having...everything is a little slow to get going. So I got spinach, chives, oregano, and radishes. Maybe it will be a little more exciting next week.
