Event: Giant's Rib Raid
Orienteering race (GRR) 4:17:00 [4]
shoes: Icebugs 2
Giant's Rib Raid with Hingo and Rocky. First time without Chief Navigator Bash.
The Line-O went better than expected, although a lot of teams took bearings on us and cut sections of the line. Strangely, I did most of the nav in the more technical spots. I messed us up a bit at 6, but Hingo was rock solid on the main sections of the course and we worked well together. Rocky's eagle eye helped a lot in the Micro- O section.
Icebugs were a good choice, especially for the ski hill and crevasse sections. We got up a pretty steady clip on the road bits and were well matched there- perhaps we made up for more nav errors than with Bash. Tragically Quick caught us in the MicroBe and we leapfrogged from there to the finish- but their ace EM was probably first to 2/3 of the controls vs 1/3 for us. Even without Bash we managed to finish a surprising 8th overall. Good teamamtes and solid teamwork!
Note- looks like we were actually 9th on the results sheet, and maybe were told 8th by mistake.

Running hills 1:00:00 [4]

Extra hard run around all of Palgrave West, with as many extra hills as I could find thrown in. Bulletdog was also Torpedodog in the ponds, and we saw lots of Wild Turkeys and deer.
My planned slow cooldown turned into a hammerfest home to just miss a huge thunderstorm.
