Orienteer race (sprint) 16:34 [5] **** 2.0 km (8:17 / km)
shoes: ORoc 10
MNOC Camp Ripley - Sprint
Welcome change from urban sprints, good fun and got me warmed-up for the middle race. Small mistake on the parallel error to 2 and then a hesitation to 10 as I was concerned I'd made a parallel error going between the wrong two marshes. I hadn't but I wanted to make sure. Got a bit tired and walked up some hills. *sigh*

MNOC Camp Ripley - Middle
Another fine course full of short legs through some good technical areas. It's like this glacial terrain actively changes shape as I move through it in an insidious effort to confuse me. I had good map contact and ok routes but did drift left on 10 and stayed too high on 12 in addition to a fair number of hesitations. None of this bothered me though as I truly enjoyed my run through the wonderful woods.

MNOC Camp Ripley - Night Score-O
Thanks to Ian for loaning me a light so I could at least attempt this race. Muddled my way through the north side of the map as well as a few on the south side. I think night nav is great practice and I wish I could do more of it. It certainly requires some technique adjustments.
