Orienteering race (Red course) 2:00:30 [3] 5.36 mi (22:29 / mi) +899ft 19:24 / mi
slept:7.0 weight:128lbs shoes: Inov-8 Oroc 340
I helped with set-up and registration, and then was one of the last to start on Red. This is an awesome map (thank you, Plamen Djambazov...) -- it's probably my new favorite, since Observatory and Kelly Dahl are off-limits for a while due to pine-beetle tree thinning work.
I didn't make any big mistakes, but I was moving slowly.
Since the weather was supposed to be cold and rainy, I hadn't brought my hydration pack. I regretted that, and was thinking about water all the way to #10 -- and then I forgot to punch after I got some water. DOH! Luckily, the "scoring committee" (Doug, Sharon & John) agreed to reinstate me, since I could describe the cups and the Cañon City coach had seen me leaving that control... Note to self: always bring a hydration pack and screw the water stops!
