Orienteering race 1:36:15 [3] *** 12.55 km (7:40 / km) +595m 6:12 / km
ahr:165 max:173 spiked:16/18c shoes: Falcons
The first day of the A meet. I had a clean, but slow, run; Eddie had an unreal time. Height advantage? for getting through mt. laurel?
The contour quality of the map was USGS. The mapper, however, demonstrated a valiant attempt at interpreting the green, and should be saluted for his efforts. That is, in the parts of the map that he did fieldcheck. With the exception of a gratuitous-climb Control 1, the course was fine for the map and the terrain, noticeably improving towards the end. Control placement was consistent with the USGS description.
The length is preliminary, will correct when I measure... the Polar noised up again, presumably because of the wet weather.

Ran around the competition area to put the horse back together. On my way to the horse, I rescued Kenny F from an off-(his) map situation, and later did same to two teenage girls on Orange. The girls finished the Orange, but Kenny just went back home.
It poured on me.
