running race 17:07:00 [3] **** 63.1 mi (16:17 / mi) +2625m 14:25 / mi
slept:3.0 shoes: Salomon XA Pro 3
Massanutten 100 trail run. 100 mile run, but gave up after 63 miles ~ 100k. Did not have the desire to walk 13+ hours more and possibly not finish. 4 AM race start did not work for me. Looking to officially finish a 50+ mile race this year to qualify for next year.

Note
slept:3.0
Reserved a spot in a walled tent with beds. It looked to be too cramped and maybe cold. Chose to set up a tent on the floor in the pavillion/enclosed building. Then realized that I did not bring tent poles. Tried to use trekking poles and some fishing rods as makeshift tent poles. These did not work very well. Then decided to go back to the bunks, but realized that I forget to bring a sleeping bag. All I had was a thin sheet and a large towel. Decided to try the tent again because at least that would be enclosed and warmer. I found 2 chairs and put them inside the tent to prop up the roof and slept between the legs of the chairs, using a towel as a blanket. Was warm enough, but not very comfortable. Had to be careful not to bang my head if I sat up. Tried to go to sleep early and wake up at 3, but did not sleep well. It rained all night. I don't think I could have slept in the car with the windows up.

orienteering 1:37:30 [3] **** 10.0 km (9:45 / km)
shoes: Salomon XA Pro 3
Mason Neck. Every was flat, I had no visual to go by, so I got confused a lot. Also lost time because another runner was sitting next to the control and blocked my view - I was nearby, but there were no features in the woods.
biking 45:00 [3] 7.0 mi (6:26 / mi)
shoes: Cannondale Roam
Laurel Hill singletrack. Skipped apple orchard loop but rode everything else. Easy trail, did not try to go fast.
orienteering 25:00 [2] ** 1.5 mi (16:40 / mi)
shoes: Salomon Wings
Laurel Hill frisbee golf. Holes 1-6, 17, 18. Buswhacked later to locate holes 7 and 10 while biking, just for fun and to help out other golfers who were somewhat lost. Grass was too long and the thorn bushes were quite thick, so only played the holes close to the start. Orienteering via hole layout maps at the teepads of the holes, which show contours and vegetation.
