This is what all the practice has come down to - race day.

RACE 6: Fairmount Park Commodores - A Division Final
Felt really good to have made the A Division final, best we'd done in previous years was make the consulation A division finals.
We all felt strong and really gave it everything and had a brilliant result coming 3rd! Big time for celebration after that. It was a shame Carol was not able to participate with the race having been postponed 3 weeks because of the storm. Definitely tired after it all but the adrenalin kept one going.
A fabulous day, good weather, great teammates, fun time, and exceeded expectations in the result

running 32:10 [3] 4.1 mi (7:51 / mi)
slept:6.5 weight:194lbs shoes: Acis 2150
been a long week. Woke up feeling the need to get out and run - a good feeling! Run along the river alas both ways in the dark - but almost a full moon relecting on the river was pretty cool. 8.53, 7.50, 7.25, (0.34 stop Lloyd Hall - water turned off for the winter), 7.29. Felt pretty good despite some extra lbbs having slipped on this week!!
Stretching 9:00 [0]
Good stretch after run

Orienteering race 1:04:29 [4] 4.8 mi (13:26 / mi) +195m 11:56 / mi
slept:7.5 shoes: Innov8 (Yellow)
US CLASSIC ORIENTEERING CHAMPIONSHIPS - Moreau Lake nr Glen Falls NY Day 2
Green X 5.6km 195m climb
Quite the walk up to the start with a nice view over to Vermont from the top. Slow to #1, clear plan to #3 using the large marshes, but was vague near the control until right by circle. Lost some time to 13 as cut through woods at end and went too far north. Another great course.
I wish we could orienteer in technical areas like this more often. A really enjoyable weekend orienteering - great job by EMPO.
Look forward to returning to this area.
