Orienteering race (Rogaine) 13:00:00 [2]
shoes: Montrail Hardrock
N. American Rogaine Champs, Allegany Park. Hilly!
I did this with 3Pin. We set a course based on a fair bit of running, inlcuding a long road run at night. Started out OK, but got well turned around when we ran into Mick's team and lost focus briefly. After that we did our first road run, but 3Pin blew out his ITB. It would take a gun to make him quit, so we just walked along slowly after that.
We decided that if we can't go fast we'd better not make more errors, so we did a lot of pace counting and precison bearings, and thing went pretty well this day, if slower than we'd planned.

Orienteering 53:00 [2]
shoes: Ecco Receptor
Tapering for the Rogaine.
An easy jog of the Palgrave training course put up by Bash.
I know the trails so-o-o well here that I tried to run point-to-point as much as possible, (Some line-o?) even recreating a swampy bushwhack that Bash did in ESAR out of curiosity.
Bit on the buggy side, but a nice course.

Cycling (MTB) 2:40:00 [2]
Nice bike to and around Albion and back with Bash (For the first bit) and The Gazelle. The trails were in great shape, and we rode it all. The Sugar Shack Shuffle's pretty technical.
Sadly, the only part that was soggy was the new bit of trail we sweated buckets to build. Digging down to the clay may not be the answer, or maybe it needs to dry out further and frim up with use.

Misc (Trail Work) 2:30:00 [2]
More IMBA trail building. Today we were benching the trail- cutting down to the mineral soil and sloping it. Basically 5 hours of hard labour, and after a day and a half with 20 people, we have about 400M done. One crew of 4 spent the whole time rock-armouring a 3M section, and another was trying to make a log ride. At least it was nowhere near as mucky as yesterday.
Cycling (MTB) 1:10:00 [3]
After all that work there was supposed to be a group ride but most people seemed too tired, so I got to be the first to ride the new bit of trail. It's still incomplete, but the bit we got done is very nice with good flow.
