Did the "Shortest, Fastest, Safest" presentation with O-Team. Really hard to tell what they took away from it, besides some guy ranting and raving for 1/2 hour. I think the practical exercise (using a master-type map to do a bunch of C-A-R analysis while running with a partner) was the real cincher, but I should have overridden Zach and done a more centralized execution, since I think some people ended up just going back to their rooms or going for a run with nothing more than a map in their hand. I should have shown them what "right" looks like, rather than just instruct them what right looks like.
I ended up matched with Brad H. and we went to Wash. Gate, Lusk Res., Thayer Gate, S. Dock and home at a decent (but not excessive) pace...hard enough to force some difficulty to the route analysis. He's got a pretty mature view of route choice, although he tends to fixate quickly on one choice, rather than consider a viable alternative...good for a race situation, but not ideal for an analysis drill.
