Event: DVOA Tyler State Park
10 AM
Orienteering race (Sprint) 37:31 *** 2.86 km (13:07 / km) +49m 12:06 / km
ahr:129 max:157 spiked:8/10c shoes: 2022 VJ Falcon 6.5. GA
Sprint 1 at Tyler, 2.1 km, 25m climb
Added in missed time; will need to calculate missed distance. Low 80s already! EDIT: Added .22km at start
Comedy of errors at the beginning, including forgetting to start my watch, and forgetting what some of the map symbols were (specifically, the water fountains, mapped as blue circles/springs).
Once I'd overrun 1 and 2 I settled in better; though I left 4 in the wrong direction, confused by the trails, and had a long road run rather than a nice walk in the woods. Fine for the rest. Yielded to a disc golfer at the tee between 7 and 8, then continued on. No problems with the rest, just slow because of the heat.

Sprint 2 at Tyler SP. 2.2 km, 30m climb
This went much better, though I still headed off the wrong direction, not really thinking.
Through the woods to 1, since I knew where I was going. In to 2 mostly okay though there seemed to be more trails, and I couldn't get them to line up properly with my compass. Angelica came through and corrected faster. Trails confusing to 3 as well.
Followed the trails to 4, including the one I missed on the first sprint. Rest was simple. There was another disc golf group between 6 and 7 but they'd all taken their first shots, so I didn't have to yield.
Ate too many cookies at finish, and chatted a bit with Kathy M about red-headed woodpeckers. :-)

Biking (Road) 51:56 14.17 km (3:40 / km) +102m 3:32 / km
ahr:120 max:151 shoes: Trek DS 3 hybrid
Counterclockwise loop including Oakhurst drive. I made it up the biggest hill (in granny gear, but I made it; although I did take a lactic acid breather near the top on a side street) and the one following it. I knew they were coming. Wouldn't have been able to do this earlier in the season. Mid 80s, partly overcast but mostly sunny, dew point in low 70s.
Only gonna get hotter later with a chance of showers, so got it out of the way.

Other 1:10:22 3.04 km (23:10 / km) +88m 20:14 / km
ahr:92 max:131 shoes: Hoka Bondi7--W9D
Birdwatching at Trexler Preserve while Glen rode the bike trails (which are too tough for me). Upper 70s with mostly full sun except on the southeastern-most trail looping back toward start which was much more wooded.
My attempt to find the red-headed woodpeckers reported there was a success! Also saw an indigo bunting (also reported), kestrels, mockingbirds, a thrasher, and vultures, as well as various butterflies including monarchs, but not the reported eagle, though there may have been a juvenile one floating along.

Wander at Lehigh Parkway, mostly stopping to looking for birds, while Glen did a trail run. Mid to upper 70s, with the overcast moving away to partially sunny skies. Saw a heron, some barn swallows, a flicker, and some ducks.
