Warmup/cooldown.
Form exercises 17:00 [4]
Silly walks and 8x100m strides. Was going to do more but then something sharp inside my shoes managed to reach one of my left toes - looks like the repair a few years ago to keep the soles attached may finally be coming back to bite me. May have to completely retire the shoes.

Event: QOC Occoquan
Orienteering race 1:18:15 [4]
QOC Occoquan score-O - a Sid Sachs special, not so much as course setter as in his capacity as mapper. He apparently had decent contour data from the county but only covering ~2/3 of the area and had trouble aligning it with the less good data available for the whole area so he just used the latter. Big time loss on the second control nevertheless mostly my fault but the ninth control was what really killed me and it was clearly, going by GPS data, mapped as being about 60 meters west of where it really was. Oh well, it's a lovely, if small, area (which has me reconsidering whether another small area I was thinking I might map for low key training events might be large enough for a regular season event after all). We'll just have to fix the contours and sic someone with greater fieldchecking ability than Sid on it before the next use.

Orienteering race 1:15:07 [4] 10.3 km (7:18 / km)
BOK Classic Champs Day 2 - less good, largely due to very poor recovery from problems on the short leg to 7, on which I must have drifted a bit right of my intended direction into the unfieldchecked fringe of the map. Maybe there shouldn't have been a control that close to the edge of the fieldchecking but that doesn't excuse my dropping more than four minutes. Otherwise clean until I dropped about three minutes on 17 and 18. Still, a basically encouraging weekend in that my physical training over the winter seems to have done its job well enough to put me in contention.

Orienteering race 1:20:33 [4] 10.2 km (7:54 / km)
BOK Classic Champs Day 1 - shaky start, otherwise not perfectly clean but generally okay. Regretted which pair of O shoes I'd thrown into the duffle when packing as I learned that the right one of the pair had it in for the back of my heel, creating a blister I could feel quite clearly by ~2/3 of the way through the course despite the three layers of protective sock.

Event: QOC Patuxent
Orienteering race 1:21:09 [3] 10.7 km (7:35 / km)
QOC Patuxent Blue - 3rd, with a very big (5 minutes lost to Eddie on the leg) parallel error. Ken apparently made a similar error, almost as large, on the same leg though, so can't take too much satisfaction in that. Also did a bit of a wander at the end of the longest leg of the course. Otherwise pretty good race, with some fading physically on the last few legs. Maybe that will go away when I don't do a long workout the evening before. I guess I'll find out this weekend in NC.
Weather had turned ridiculously pleasant by end of the start window when Dan and I both started so the Lennons' plan for kite flying came to surprisingly healthy fruition.
