previously, i have not been able to complete the second day of any event set/designed by peteris/ott so i started today hoping to finish and alter the course of history.
it was cold and flurrying throughout most of the course! goofed up 2 a bit and heard some very angry-sounding cows on my way to 6. it sounded like they were in exactly the direction i thought the control would be so it was a relief to find 6 without encountering any!
i was feeling pretty cold and wet heading to 8 and then unfolding the map and seeing the super long leg out to 9 was a bit discouraging. i opted to climb up a hill from 8 and that warmed me up! was careful trying to find my way to 9 as i didn’t want to get super lost on the way to that side of the map. made it out there, did the loop and then heading back towards the last part of the course was easier since it roughly mirrored how i had head out. woohoo! finding 12 was a relief and made me feel more confident that i might actually finish... and i did! hooray! go me! :D

ahr:139 max:175 15c shoes: Inov-8 Arctic Talon 275
volunteered to help sue k figure out start procedures for the assigned start times, so ended up being one of the last people to get on the course. ended up being nice since it was raining on and off during most of the start window and had cleared up by the time we got everyone else out on the course!
feeling pretty good for the first 4 controls, then had a lot of trouble finding 5. in fact, i ended up finding 6 twice before being able to get to 5. haha - then getting back to 6 for the *third* time was pretty easy. rest of course went fairly smoothly, especially as it transitioned into more open terrain. felt like the week of orienteering in switzerland really helped me today - woo! messed up the go control and had to run back up a hill to get it (woops) but otherwise pretty happy with how i did. :)

ahr:168 max:177 17c shoes: Inov-8 X-Talon 212
first time i have ever run a SART heat w/ e! was fun but also nerve-wracking. :)
christophe jetted up the hill right at the beginning - i tried to pace myself and could tell someone was right behind me. e and tomas zipped past me downhill to 2 and started lengthening their lead on the way to 3. but! they all had trouble finding 3 and were milling around. i was able to find it first and tried to sneak out without them noticing, but e saw me. managed to stay in the front until 4, then everyone passed me. took a slower route to 5 so ended up seeing the whole pack way ahead, but it looked like ing had missed punching 5, so i kept going and then saw her stop at 6 and realize her mistake. the whole rest of the race i kept looking back to see if she was catching up but managed to have a clean race and finish ahead. :O
Orienteering race 21:22 [4] *** 2.01 mi (10:38 / mi)
ahr:165 max:182 26c shoes: Inov-8 X-Talon 212
really fun w/ the forked courses - after starting, focused on doing things in the right order out of the first hub - so many lines going everywhere! :P didn't see anyone from my heat until reaching the 2nd hub at which point i saw ott who looked far ahead and nina who i also thought was a loop ahead, then slowly realized we were actually really close to each other. tried to push myself to catch up with her, but she stayed ahead and ended up winning by 9 seconds. pretty surprised that i was that close!
overall, ended up winning F40-49 (tho there was a mix-up at the awards ceremony) and finishing 28th. feel pretty good about this SART and looking forward to winter O! :D

had fun trash talking with brett while waiting in line :) slight bobbles on 3, 7 and 9 but otherwise felt pretty good.

ahr:175 max:186 16c shoes: Inov-8 X-Talon 212
knew there was no way to keep up w/ ali and keely is quite fast. lost sight of ali by 3, but kept on keely's heels until 9 at which point we started leap-frogging with each other. almost started for 14 after 12, but realized and corrected to get 13 before going too far off course. trailing keely on the way to 14/15, but then saw her take a wrong turn and miss 15... eek! got excited that i'd be able to sneak past and found 15, then promptly messed up going to 16. luckily figured it out with enough time to still finish ahead - whew!
Orienteering race 16:52 [4] 1.64 mi (10:17 / mi) +65m 9:09 / mi
ahr:175 max:187 shoes: Inov-8 X-Talon 212
another fast group - ali, emma and brett zipped off immediately. managed to stay a little ahead of keely until 8 but could tell she was gaining on me. got passed on the way to 9 and wasn't able to keep up or sneak past this time. :P
Orienteering race 16:35 [4] *** 1.43 mi (11:36 / mi) +80m 9:53 / mi
ahr:172 max:183 20c shoes: Inov-8 X-Talon 212
as usual, at SPU, the course started with running up the hill - tried to keep pace up w/o killing myself. jack b zipped ahead. we were all pretty close together until 7, then i got disoriented leaving, thought i was at the wrong street intersection, punched what i thought was 8 but then realized the control code was too high... ack... was able to figure out i was at 15 by flipping back and forth between map 1 & 2, re-oriented and got to 8. wasn't sure if i had misled keely as i didn't see her punch 8 either, but on the way to 9, saw her heading back looking confused.
continued on trying to stay ahead of keely and figuring the rest of my heatmates were long gone. managed the map flip okay, then nailed 15 since i had already been there earlier. ;) then at 17, i was suddenly surprised to see christophe and jack b - i exited differently from the two of them, passed christophe on the way up to 18, then it was an all-out race up and around and downhill through the last two controls and to the finish. the two of them kept gaining on me, but i managed to squeak in 1 and 2 seconds ahead. super exciting! :D
always really fun to race around SPU! questionable placement on 3 where because of using SI Air, if you were tall enough, jumping could let you punch from the other side of an uncrossable wall. interesting that the fancy new technology allows this whereas traditional punching wouldn't - something to keep in mind when designing?

felt easier than last week’s threshold run - surprised that i ran the last segment as fast as i did because it did NOT feel that way. :P whew! glad i did it but also glad it’s done.

this run felt hard! got up early (for me) to fit it in before other things i wanted to do today. felt sluggish and not able to hit target paces, but tried to focus on continuing to work hard anyway. felt pretty wumped afterwards so i think i succeeded on that front! :P
