Run / Hike warm up/down 30:00 [3] 1.6 mi (18:45 / mi)
shoes: Salomon Speedcross (2017-Turq)


Walked to & from the start.

Orienteering race 1:31:49 [3] 4.29 mi (21:24 / mi) +394ft 19:41 / mi
slept:6.0 shoes: Salomon Speedcross (2017-Turq)


Yay, this was much better than yesterday. I did something weird navigationally and slowed way down on my way to #8, but it wasn't nearly as disastrous as yesterday's eff-up.

I finished just 46 seconds behind the 1st place person in F50+ (Stephanie), which was enough to eke out a third-place medal for the weekend (out of only four people -- but I'd much rather be third than fourth!).

A fun weekend overall, with great company. :-)

Orienteering race 2:01:42 [3] 5.75 mi (21:10 / mi) +315ft 20:07 / mi
slept:6.0 shoes: Salomon Speedcross (2017-Turq)


This was horrible and I don't want to relive it with a recap. In a nutshell: a 49-minute split to #6...and then continued bobbles and unpleasant bog-slogs in thigh-deep mud-water (not intentionally). Compared to Cristina's route & distance, I added TWO MILES to the 5.1 km course.

I don't like to make excuses for my bad performances, but I was definitely mentally scattered today -- mainly feeling anxious & guilty about inconveniencing and possibly jeopardizing my housemates due to the COVID situation (they were all very gracious about it, but I still felt like an asshole).

Note


Travel day to Minnesota.

I found out via text as I was boarding the plane in Denver that someone I had been around had just tested positive for COVID (movie together on Sunday night, symptoms started on Tuesday / Wednesday, positive test on Friday...). Ugh.

Spent $94 on a test at the Minneapolis airport after I landed, and then my Airbnb buddies & I had to wear masks all weekend in the house. I finally got my negative results on Sunday morning...as we were packing up to leave.
