ahr:160 max:171 shoes: O-Inov8 Mudclaw 330
Thought I had started okay, but still got caught by Leif 4 minutes about 1/3 of the way through - had maybe 2x1 minutes of sloppiness before that. Was hot, and despite 1 Excedrin before and 2 after + 1 ibuprofin, then 1 Excedrin about 2hr after finishing, I felt tweaked, and a bit sick - but not too bad - threw up once, but no headache - so not as bad as it could've been. That said, the plan I had at one point to run M35 on this hot day was better.

Running warm up/down 9:00 [2] 1.0 mi (9:00 / mi) +10m 8:44 / mi
shoes: O-Inov8 Mudclaw 330
Shadowed Oriana after - that was difficult as I was being quite strict as a non-assisting shadow. Not only never seeing the map, but also not discussing anything related to navigation. I did 'assist' by running back to get bug spray and water on this hot, mosquito-ey day after about an hour out - and poor Oriana ended up with ~20 bites. Yet she did not want to quit at any time. Even after she broke down and needed a hug and I suggested we just head back to the car, she said she wanted to keep going, and kept her eye out on the way back, re-locating, and continuing on with the course... 1.6km, 2 hours...

Orienteering 24:00 [2] 3.3 km (7:16 / km) +40m 6:51 / km
shoes: O-Inov8 Mudclaw 330
Interesting terrain. High water, though pre-noted, was still surprising. Like the contoury terrain. Contour mapping not totally intuitive to me, but good enough. Avoiding all water/green and reading contours made for relatively simplifyable navigation
---
note for event itself
- rough/moderate compass, read contours, and plan to avoid stuff was about all that was needed, with some effort paid to picking medium vegetated routes (bottoms were better than tops) to avoid the slow sand open spaces, and the thicker sage. Shoes full of sand got annoying by the end, but overall I ran okay, and navigated well (<1 min. total I think) which was good for 2nd US in this lightly attended event...
