orienteering 1:19:58 [3] 5.3 km (15:05 / km) +85m 13:58 / km
Day2 of the US Champs; GreenX. Good day with only some hesitation to #2 and then again at #4. Both times was maybe 30 meters away when I was sure I had gone about the right distance but couldn't match up what I was seeing in the terrain with the map but guessed correctly when I decide which way I must be off and then saw the control. But both times I did not really figure out what I was seeing. Ran maybe 50 meters on the one trail I took and about half the legs on the playing fields. Good enough for 2nd place in F50+.
Note
Both days I drenched my hair, arms, neck and face with DEET and had no problems with mosquitoes or deer flies. I don't think I ever even noticed one flying around me. Unfortunately I did get a bee sting today on my calf. It's pretty sore and swollen although icing it has helped a lot.
Knees on the other hand are great! Guess I'll stick to the mostly walking thing for a while.

Note
It went down to the wire, but won my bet with Valerie that she wouldn't be able to stay out of the download tent. :)
