Fun night on a beautiful evening. TOC/UKR at Ramsden Park in Rosedale. Run around small park/neighbourhood map, then head N several hundred metres to a private school for multiple CPs, then back down to loop around the original park. Creative course setting by Igor. Slow shuffling on account of my hip, but actually felt okay and moved steady. After, Oliver had 5x5 checkpoint maze set up for time trials.

Event: Toronto Orienteering Festival
 

Toronto Orienteering Festival at Greenwood N of Ajax. Rainy morning, but tapered off soon after we started. Small group unfortunately. Score-O, and I tried to plan with my lack of running speed in mind. I ignored the bottom of the map and went west, then north, hoping to do a dogbone and loop around the top. Forgot to do the second dogbone (Highlight route next time...). Decided to cross the river at the top and come down the east side. Thick, wet, nasty ~800 m bushwhack and I loved it. I was laughing at myself for how much I was enjoying it.
Did my gimpy shuffle run when I could and hiked the rest. Hip was barking at me, but not too bad. Soooo good to be out on a map.
Thanks to Oliver, Mark & Andrew for fun event.
