Orienteering 46:15 [4] 5.5 km (8:25 / km) +145m 7:26 / km
slept:7.5 weight:199lbs shoes: Innov8-2(Yellow)
DVOA Event French Creek Central - Green Course 5.5km
Cool cloudy day with spots of rain. Glad we kept to the northern half of the map and not on Mt Pleasure which is a misnomer of the highest order. As vegetation was only partly out visibility was good. Clean 1,2,3, then veered too far west for 4, but other than hesitation realized from contours that I was too high and dropped down into it. Clean to 5 and 6. Had a good plan for 7, but missed the east west trail, (ed Scott said it was all wet and muddy so the trail wasn't obvious). Anyway ended up down by lake, so lost a couple of minutes (will be interested to see split difference) on a more circuitous path route. Clean the rest of controls though almost missed the last one as circle very faint and line went right through it to finish. Poor Ron Bortz did miss it and had to come back as finish control did not have a code number.
Kept steady, still stopping a little too much and need more practice using the magnifier. Enjoyed getting on and running.
