Event: WPOC - Keystone
 

WPOC Keystone State Park - Red

Beautiful day for orienteering! Went pretty well overall. I caught Kevin at 4 (I had started ~5 min behind him) and then really messed up 5. Drifted too far S when I cut down from the powerlines and didn't realize the nice ride that I crossed led right to the flag. So I wandered around by the stream for a bit before reattacking from the road/trail junction. Caught Kevin again at 9 and we went back and forth through 14. He was faster on trails, but I was more accurate. Pretty good representation of our strengths :) We split on the way to 15, I went around to the N planning to take a two track. I didn't find it, but the woods were nice. Punched 15 and saw Kevin wandering as I headed to 16. Didn't see him after that. I enjoyed the nice downhill run to the finish.

Really happy with how my legs felt on the hills. Although this park wasn't nearly as hilly as the previous one.

A tour of the bike trails through Pittsburgh. Beautiful day for a ride!

Checked out the nearest climbing gym. It was really nice. Mostly bouldering, but lots of space, good routes, and windows!

Down the road and back. This run felt kind of flat...making progress on getting used to hills!

Trotted up and down a big grassy hill. 10# pack.

Warmup time/distance added from Kevin's watch.

Arms and core.

Will hopefully check out the local climbing gym this weekend.

Trot along the Montrour trail. Mostly gravel, but it may have been paved at one point because it was pretty solid. Legs felt decent although that probably would not have been the case if I tried to go up any hills!
