Note
Back to the "real world" where human behaviors can be even more challenging than complex terrain and science itself somewhat "simple"; actually the Orienteering metaphor is sursprisingly apt for the drug discovery and development process. Anyhow fond memories of my first NAOC, and would like to think ahead to 2014. But, you never know what life has in store and sometimes this sport is in equal measure frustrating and enriching.
Walking 24:00 [1] 2.4 km (10:00 / km)
Cool grey / gray day.
Running warm up/down (Indoor ) 7:31 [2] 1.6 km (4:42 / km)
Quick warm up before core and then biz dinner
Strength 25:00 [2]
Core with abs, followed by arma and shoulders.
Stretching 5:00 [0]
Legs with roller. Everything in good shape.
NB Either conditioning paid off or I just didn't huff and puff enough on the weekend.

Jogging warm up/down 10:00 [2] 1.75 km (5:43 / km)
Joggeroo plus drills, stretching and a coup,e of strides. Legs felt good.
Orienteering race 17:08 [4] 2.85 km (6:01 / km) +45m 5:34 / km
Disappointing run, not bad but not great and about 2 + mins squandered on route choice (wasnt reading ahead well enough to see some of the more direct forest routes) and an overrun on control 8. Missed first by 11 sec but should have executed sub 15 min with SL = 2.2 km. That's the way the cookie crumbles.
Note
Got myself back to Newark in time for plane, although pity had to miss the relays. Had the pleasure of sgb's company to the airport enabled by 3 iPhones!
Fun weekend and enjoyed a beer last night with NEOC board members tp and Mikka and joined by bl and Beth. Good IPA! and 2 NAOC silvers.

Orienteering race 1:17:35 **** 8.35 km (9:17 / km) +290m 7:55 / km
ahr:129 max:181 spiked:13/15c
Better run today, not perfect with a couple of minutes dropped out there but good enough for 2nd, 1:30 behind and 13 sec ahead of Soupbone (finishing kick?). Generally good route choices and execution, have to see splits. Slight miss on 9 (too high) and overran 12. Slow going mostly through green woods. SL = 7.4k
Note
Looking back, average heart rate was low and I knew I was being conservative out there. A couple of minutes of reported error but also some missed ops for higher output. So room for improvement.

Walking warm up/down 15:00 [3] 1.6 km (9:22 / km)
Up to start and back trying to stay dry
Orienteering race 56:09 [3] **** 5.35 km (10:30 / km) +110m 9:31 / km
ahr:146 max:169 spiked:8/17c
Aargh woeful. After #3 could t see so took glasses off which limits my ability to see distance- so grey shapes and phantom orange controls were my day. Took a bad tumble and caught shoulder on a stump- dazed but seemed ok. Had a couple of ok legs but compass generally off to right. Deserved to get punished today but just don't handle these foggy and rain squall conditions at all well. C- run and SL 3.9!

Event: MNOC - Adventure Run #3
Note
slept:8.0 weight:62.6kg (rest day)
East coast bound. Have to note a highly unusual constellation of events in the generally unstable BP firmament - as in:
A) no injury and
B) no jet lag and
C) no unusual work stress (as in job move)
So really looking forward to a fun weekend at NAOC - highlight should be the beer tasting event. Looking forward to catching up with everyone.
BTW need to hear more trans-border trash talk from Ian S et al :-)
Yeah I know; gotta get your kicks somewhere (used to be Aussie Kiwi rivalry)
