Orienteering (Sprint) 20:03 [4] *** 2.5 km (8:01 / km) +100m 6:41 / km
spiked:9/11c slept:7.0
ROC: Durand Eastman Park, NY. For the second day of the US Orienteering Convention, there was more course work followed by some sprints and a picnic. The sprints were fine though steep. I thought some of the map might have been better in places but it was probably printed at 1:5,000 and mapped at 1:10,000. I made an error right out of the start by having a poor bearing and missing a trail. That cost me about 1:19 according to AP. I moved okay afterward but I wasn't moving as fast as I would have liked. I had a few bobbles such as moving left at first on the leg to #10, then deciding that going right around the water was better.
Orienteering (Line-O) 1:36 [5] * 0.25 km (6:24 / km)
30c
ROC: Durand Eastman Park, NY. ROC setup a Super Line-O sprint that slalomed through the trees. I did it not long after finishing my sprint. It was rather tricky requiring speed and agility. I fumbled with one control but was okay with the others. After this, we ate a picnic dinner and then went to the Sea Breeze amusement park. The amusement park overlooked Lake Ontario and was nice. The cummulative effect of several fast rides added-up, making my stomach feel nauseous. I had lost a sense of equilibrium.
