run 14:19 [3] 1.33 mi (10:47 / mi) +7m 10:38 / mi

orienteering 38:00 [3] 4.47 km (8:30 / km) +92m 7:42 / km

Middle at Fishtrap Lake. Sortof fun terrain, it had some detailed cliff stuff that was super cool, but lots of blowdown around them and then high grass and cobblestones a lot of other places, so running was meh. I guess I had always heard revered things about this place and was... underwhelmed? Still a fun day though.

orienteering 1:27:16 [3] 11.19 km (7:48 / km) +159m 7:17 / km

Long at Riverside park, maybe called 7 Mile Canyon? I really want to like this day, because the terrain was flat and fast and technical, but the map just wasn't great. There were a million unmapped trails, the vegetation was random, and the contours seemed like they could use some detail in a few key places.

Big wandering mistake on 3, I got on an unmapped trail coming up the last hill that I turned into a parallel error and did 1km loop trying to relocate on some mystery trails and contours. Couple other spots where I searched around a bit, but that first one put me on edge so the rest weren't as bad.

orienteering 28:55 [3] 3.81 km (7:35 / km) +58m 7:03 / km

Park-o at Menito Park in Spokane. Super fun park - normal parky stuff and then little 'islands' of rocky hills mixed in.
4 PM

orienteering 26:22 [3] 3.06 km (8:37 / km) +21m 8:20 / km

Sprint at Riverside Bowl and Pitcher park, which had a big river and a cool bridge and some weird rock formations. The course was flat and through som mostly nice woods. Got lost on 10-11 where there were two contours near the control, but I stopped on the two halfway there and wandered a bit.

orienteering 1:25:22 [3] 8.61 km (9:55 / km) +344m 8:16 / km

Longish course at Saltese Uplands, which was steep open calf high grass with rocky bits here and there. Too steep to try too hard, but it was a good jog around. Three controls I would have thought could be on a more correct feature, but I found all the bags eventually. Rolled my ankle hard early on in some rocky stuff hidden by grass, I had done the same back on Saturday but that was ok by the end of the race, this still hurts later at night.

orienteering 21:00 [3] 3.48 km (6:02 / km)

Sprint around University of Montana. Got the wrong map in some rainy confusion at the start, so did intermediate instead of long, but it was hailing so I can’t complain. Didn’t think too hard about routes, so there were probably some better ones.

orienteering 1:31:18 [3] 10.56 km (8:39 / km) +233m 7:47 / km

Long distance at Lubrecht. Nice slow plod, but not really any mistakes and the woods were great.

orienteering 42:40 [3] 5.54 km (7:42 / km) +65m 7:17 / km

Red at the Boris-O in Lubrecht. Some mistakes because I wasn’t paying attention to anything and haven’t done this in a few years, but overall it was delightful.
