Event: EMPO - Dwaas Kill

11 AM

Orienteering race 1:36:25 *** 8.87 km (10:52 / km) +112m 10:14 / km
ahr:129 max:151 spiked:17/20c shoes: VJ Falcons 4 (yellow)

EMPO local event on the expanded Kinns Road map (now known as Dwaas Kill/Kinns Road). The newly mapped portion is mostly marsh or wet ground, with the criteria for being mapped as marsh somewhat unclear to me. Lots of subtle contour detail, very little of it mapped. Many mapped rootstocks, some where they should be relative to the contours, many not. I have no need to go on this map again.

I found all the controls except for one. I was in the circle but had no interest in searching among deadfall to figure out which rootstock might be mapped and have a bag on it. Finished the rest of the course which was on the older part of the map. And to top things off, the maps were printed with odd colors (no yellow, so all the green was bluish).

spiked:5/6c shoes: VJ Falcons 4 (yellow)

Test running at Moreau. You really have to pay attention, even if you think you know where you are. :-) Ran about half a course, then had to move/check a few points, so stopped the watch.
Overcast, low 50's but no rain.

Field Checking 1:30:00 [1] *** 4.0 km (22:30 / km) +11m 22:12 / km
spiked:7/7c shoes: VJ Falcons 4 (yellow)

Moving and checking a few points plus scoping out White and Yellow possibilities. Only had the watch on for part of the time, so time and distance estimated.

Orienteering 4:29 [3] **** 0.47 km (9:29 / km)
spiked:2/2c shoes: VJ Falcons 4 (yellow)

Ran the last two controls plus finish chute for some potential course.

Trail Run 57:08 4.79 mi (11:56 / mi) +230m 10:23 / mi
ahr:138 max:153 shoes: Scarpa Spark Trail Shoes

From Reservoir Road at the upper end of Kennedy Park. Found and explored some mountain bike trails I learned about from guys at work. Covered with newly fallen leaves but visible enough. Some rocks and roots, but fairly tame. Plenty of hilliness and twists and turns. A really nice grove of white birches at the point I turned around. Apparently that trail is about a 10 mile loop of which I only explored the first km. The sun finally returned after several days of overcast and wetness.
