Orienteering race 1:14:30 *** 6.01 km (12:24 / km) +135m 11:09 / km
ahr:131 max:159 spiked:6/10c shoes: 2010 Yellow NB 840
Green Y course at Baldwin Hill. Out pretty early, but saw Gary Gallagher a couple of times near 3 and near 4, and Jeff Schapiro, once when I went to his control by mistake at #5 and once when he was at my control by mistake at #8. In better control than yesterday, mostly, although I over ran 3 and 4 and fishhooked back to them, and then got sucked off by a flag on a boulder near 5 before I realized I was supposed to be looking for a reentrant and fishhooked back to that. Major loss on 6 where I was a trifle high and kept wandering for a while relocating off things that didn't seem to help.
Hard to keep a straight line in the deadfall, and my track shows some wandering. Particularly wandered on the first half of the way to #5, and was very misinformed about where I was until I hit the stone wall on the hill half way. I thought I had gone around the other side of the big marsh and that I had bumped into the smaller one beyond.

Event: Fall Foliage Festival
9 AM
Orienteering race 33:38 [3] *** 2.6 km (12:56 / km)
spiked:2/7c weight:164.5lbs shoes: 2010 Yellow NB 840
Fall Foliage preliminary sprint - Green Y. Forgot the Garmin in my car, so no track. 90 degree error out of the start led to about a 4 minute loss on #1. Then lost some more on #5, 6 and 7. Pretty ugly. Did not make the A final
1 PM
Orienteering race 44:11 *** 4.57 km (9:41 / km) +100m 8:43 / km
ahr:138 max:162 spiked:8/14c shoes: 2010 Yellow NB 840
B final. Again some poor results. particular stinkers were #1 and #9. Both times looking for invisible gray smears on green and wasting mega time particularly on 9 patrolling back and forth before bailing out and coming in from another direction. Also had a minute + loss on 4 and 10 and stopped short and had to think about it on 3 and 11.

Event: U.S. Corn Maze Championships
5 AM
Gym 1:00:00 [3]
Rhonda's morning class. There was a rumor that Danielle was going to take over and give a Zumba class, but then she figured out how long it was going to take to get home today and they left at 4:30. Pretty tough when you don't have time to stick around for 5:30 class.
5 PM
Orienteering 24:50 2.81 km (8:50 / km) +2m 8:48 / km
ahr:130 max:164 shoes: 2009 Yellow NB 840s
US Corn Maze championships, Sunderland MA. A reasonably good run, except for going to 18 instead of 10. Turned out not to be that good a way to get to 10. Beautiful night and really fun. Excellent map. One of the most precise I've been on.

Orienteering race 5:29 0.69 km (7:58 / km) +1m 7:54 / km
ahr:124 max:151 shoes: 2009 Yellow NB 840s
US Corn Maze Sprint championships. Another map error, heading to 4 from 2 and getting most of the way there before realizing I hadn't visited 3. Otherwise totally a fine time. Route to #1 was tricky enough that I spent about 30 seconds puzzling it out before I started running. Devious.

Hike 2:00:00 [3] 5.5 mi (21:49 / mi)
