orienteering 17:00 [1] *** 1.71 km (9:56 / km)
WCOC's winter meeting at the DeWitt's in Bethel, CT.
Started jogging with Jesse & Katy, giving them some instructions while this was their first time orienteering. After a few controls they seemed to get the hang of it so Mike & I ran back.
They managed the whole course, really enjoyed it and would like to come try it soon again :-)
orienteering (mobile-o) 46:55 [2] **** 5.14 km (9:08 / km)
I ran without a map, just with a compass. Mike was at the house with the map guiding me via cellphone. This was really interesting & fun! We made two bigger mistakes: he guided me to 2nd before 1st and we had a lot of trouble finding the boulder right of a trail junction under the power line. Otherwise Mike was a very good & calm guide.
I wanna do this again and I also wanna get the chance to guide someone while it must be such a good technical exercise.
FR 5.14 km
