Note
I golfed. At a fancy country club. And I didn't implode. I did insist on walking, and left the Garmin at home.

Event: SMOC Fall Silver Lake
12 PM
Orienteering (Green course) 2:08:08 5.74 mi (22:19 / mi) +204m 20:06 / mi
ahr:135 max:183
Had planned to do Orange, but when I got there, Heidi said maybe we could do Green together, and Alex said "C'mon! What are you afraid of?" So guess who did her first official green course. :)
Start to 1: In theory, the approach was good, but I thought *maybe* the marsh was crossable or the little bit between the marshes might work, but I was wrong and we headed back down the trail around and got it. And, discovered I forgot to tape my laces. Tie down #1 of many.
1 to 2: Headed up the road, overshot again (grr!) and then realized went to far, went back down and got it from the entry point.
2 to 3: Took a bearing and spiked.
3 to 4: From the looks of the green, thought may be better off trail running. From the looks of the splits, it worked for us.
4 to 5: Was a little worried about overshooting, so took it easy into it and spiked it.
5 to 6: Execution was solid, but slow. Got caught up in some of the denser green gunk.
6 to 7: Overshot west, but hit a point that told us go south! Go south now! Used significant topo features to the trail, then south to the other trail, then took a bearing at the west end of the marsh.
7 to 8: That orange bucket. I thought meh, its an orange bucket, the control could be there! Round, and round we go, where we ended, was the orange bucket! BUGGER.
8 to 9: Out to the trail, ran it to the trail junction, went straight north veering west with the idea we would hit the reentrant, which we got it. But then, I started running the wrong WAY!. Heidi, could be heard, BARBARA! COME BACK! Oops.
9 to 10: Ran back up the trail, through HQ then up the road. Looked like the northern part of the marsh was clearer (yay Heidi) and came around.
10 to F: By then, my shoelaces were untied, and did my best to sprint to the finish.
Other than mistakes, felt good and tons of fun! Loved #9, and #10, because I like reentrants. :) But the little rock house and chimney were pretty cool en route 6 to 7.
