Biking (singletrack) 2:13:09 13.49 mi (6.1 mph) +241m
ahr:124 max:171 slept:5.0 shoes: Jamis Dragon Sport 29er
Got off to a slow start thanks to some mechanicals on Maria's bike. Trails were a little slick - the woods all had snow. Then Brian broke a chain. Thankfully it was right after my hands warmed up so I could go barehanded to fix it.
We should be ready for a lot of things now - flats, chain issues. Now all we need is a derailleur to die so we can convert something to singlespeed and I think we've got it all covered.
Jeff now rolls on a sweet 23" 29er. Also, he seems really fit.

Walking 14:14 [0] 0.23 mi (1:01:35 / mi) +1m 1:00:46 / mi
ahr:98 max:118
Transition, <15 minutes including locking up bikes, I'm cool. Jeff was good in six minutes, so he can eat pasta for 3 mins 45 seconds.
Orienteering 3:54:41 *** 10.17 mi (23:05 / mi) +238m 21:31 / mi
ahr:110 max:161 spiked:12/13c shoes: Inov8 Roclite 319
Those who can't do, teach!
Clean until IN, then I didn't do a good job getting us out of the bowl, and got nervous at the wrong steep hill, so we bailed to two track. Then reset, were almost there, but just stopped up. Seems Jeff's watch overmeasures distance while bushwhacking, and my contour reading could stand to improve.
Not a great confidence boost! I told Maria it was not too late to switch teams.
But we did a few more and they went well. Granted, they were easier, but clean lines, good teamwork.
I will go back there sometime and find you, IN!!!
