Gold Rush Sprint @ Veterans Park Boise, ID

Woo sprinting! Felt good to try to push to full speed and think and find things. Water was in the way often, so had to make fuller angle direction turns which ya know can be hard on an oxygen-deprived brain.

I was most worried coming into the sand bar #10, seeing a mini bridge off to my left that I wasn't expecting, but also didn't think could be the big bridge. Was a little uncomfy in that bit.

Then there was the mini marsh to cross later on. I thought it might be easier to cross where a indistinct trail was indicated, nope, just as watery!

2 PM

Orienteering 10:51 [1] 1.18 mi (9:12 / mi) +3m 9:07 / mi

Collecting controls. Nearly thwarted by some zip ties, but I outsmarted them by taking the control apart.

And then time for ice cream! Unfortunately Tom and I missed the swimming expeditions.

Orienteering 24:07 [1] 2.46 mi (9:48 / mi) +105m 8:39 / mi

Observed 10pm-midnight last night. We're working on figuring out the different alignment options on the 12" Meade. Somewhat bizzarely an option titled 'Easy Alignment' seems entirely the same as an option called 'One-star alignment'. So I'm unsure why the two options exist.

But anyways, woke up and tested out my course for next week's ZerO. Think it should work. (Don't look at track if you're coming!) =)

Cycling 1:49:39 [1] 26.22 mi (4:11 / mi) +484m 3:57 / mi

Nice morning ride out Happy Valley loop with Albyn. Then into work with the summer students. 1) Working on a project on young stellar clusters in early-type galaxies. 2) Making the telescope and CCD work. 3) Making the spectrograph and reducing and working on some of my old DCT data on clusters in XUV disks. 4) Just started and earlies-in-school of the bunch: young clusters in one specific, but helpfully nearby early-type galaxy.

They are keeping me busy!

Mt. Hood Scramble

Wow. A running race that was actually orienteering-style running. Impressed. On the side of Mt. Hood, mostly through this giant alpine pumice-y rock wash with streams through it, but also some through the woods, if anything seeking out trees to jump over, duck through, etc.

So I'll count as very good terrain-run training!

2 minutes behind the leading men, many> 16 minutes ahead of the next woman. 5th overall.

Detour to Mt. Tabor on the way out.

Orienteering 28:49 [4] 3.87 mi (7:27 / mi) +1m 7:26 / mi

Grant Park ZerO by Scott

Woo, good sprint training! Totally messed up one route choice. Stairs were hard due to mapping. 4 loops, some doubling up of controls, but usually coming from a different way.

Cycling 40:31 [1] 8.22 mi (4:56 / mi) +184m 4:37 / mi

And Mt. Tabor again on the way back.
