3 PM

Walking 16:16 intensity: (6 @0) + (12:06 @1) + (4:04 @2) 1.0 mi (16:12 / mi) +47m 14:09 / mi
ahr:128 max:151 slept:10.0 shoes: Brooks Cascadia 8s

Warmup out at Peach Mountain. Plan was to jog four miles. I selected Peach Mountain because the map is handy, I knew I could find dry wide trails, and it's close to home.

Running 20:19 intensity: (30 @1) + (2:42 @2) + (17:03 @3) + (4 @4) 1.86 mi (10:57 / mi) +71m 9:47 / mi
ahr:154 max:167 shoes: Brooks Cascadia 8s

Up to the radio tower. Perhaps more than my partner was expecting, climb wise.

Walking 54 intensity: (47 @1) + (7 @2) 0.05 mi (17:02 / mi) +4m 13:48 / mi
ahr:128 max:154 shoes: Brooks Cascadia 8s

Walk break. I misunderstood how long or short this would be. I thought it might be a while.

Running 11:47 intensity: (15 @0) + (11:32 @1) 1.06 mi (11:06 / mi) +4m 10:58 / mi
ahr:107 max:135 shoes: Brooks Cascadia 8s

Mostly downhill over to the car.
4 PM

Running 13:04 intensity: (1:03 @0) + (12:01 @1) 1.07 mi (12:12 / mi) +43m 10:51 / mi
ahr:111 max:130 shoes: Brooks Cascadia 8s

I offered walk breaks for the climb, but it was declined and then just two shorter breaks were taken.

Walking 14:01 intensity: (9:57 @0) + (4:04 @1) 0.78 mi (17:52 / mi) +10m 17:12 / mi
ahr:83 max:117 shoes: Brooks Cascadia 8s

Cool down back to the day care lot.

Orienteering 1:20:28 intensity: (4:58 @0) + (1:10:26 @1) + (4:48 @2) + (16 @3) *** 3.18 mi (25:17 / mi) +103m 22:59 / mi
ahr:112 max:155 spiked:17/17c shoes: Roclite #2

I spiked the crap out of these. Which is good, as many were white and yellow and orange.

11 AM

Orienteering 49:22 intensity: (34:25 @1) + (10:32 @2) + (4:12 @3) + (13 @4) *** 2.16 mi (22:50 / mi) +77m 20:34 / mi
ahr:130 max:165 spiked:2/3c slept:7.0 shoes: Brooks Cascadia 8s

I advise not tweaking positions on the fly. But the end of the long leg seemed too easy, so I had to at least give people a chance to foul it up and work harder to relocate. So I spent time verifying the position as I hadn't been to it before.

I should plan water spots earlier, so they are more convenient.
12 PM

Orienteering 2:07:17 intensity: (26 @0) + (1:53:48 @1) + (10:05 @2) + (2:58 @3) *** 4.42 mi (28:48 / mi) +174m 25:40 / mi
ahr:120 max:159 spiked:10/10c shoes: Brooks Cascadia 8s

I need to figure out a stop lockout for the 305, as I appear to have bumped it at the water stop and failed to notice it for two controls - luckily one is a very easy spot, and the other I checked extensively last time when streamering so they should be good.

Again, water stops, what was I thinking!! Two miles with two gallon jugs. I should have dropped them via vehicle!

Note

Frequently appearing at MI races, our favorite IL adventure racer, Drake White, appears to be the token male on a team at Gold Rush Mother Lode.

shoes: Keen Sandals

Ain't no time for nothin else

Note

Purple Pen tip: Start the control auto numbering at some unusably high value (eg, 200). Then when you finalize your layouts, you can walk through and renumber the courses to your whim (eg, 31, 32, 33, etc.) without hitting any collisions.
5 PM

Running 30:45 intensity: (20 @0) + (15 @1) + (48 @2) + (29:22 @3) 3.56 mi (8:38 / mi) +2m 8:37 / mi
ahr:155 max:163 shoes: Brooks Ghost Blue

I almost didn't get this in.

Sooner or later I'll learn that I should just get up at 5, do something, and then rest easy knowing it's in the bag.

Note

Slept in like a lazy git, but did get night o permit dropped off in person. Didn't meet park super, but did leave donuts.
5 PM

Biking 1:14:27 intensity: (16 @0) + (31:40 @1) + (28:02 @2) + (13:51 @3) + (38 @4) 18.4 mi (14.8 mph) +103m
ahr:139 max:170 slept:7.0 shoes: Jamis Dragon Sport 29er

Lest any of you worry about my technical skills deteriorating...fear not; I included some Island Lake Blue.

Monday Sep 16, 2013 #

Note

So one idea I had is that I didn't take my 17' plastic kayak out at all this year. Perhaps I could sell it and use it to fund a nice packraft, since that'd be required for Untamed New England if that came together, plus then it would offer opportunities to go bikerafting, which sounds interesting but then I'd have to be ambitious enough to do it. The idea of biking to a put in, going somewhere, and then biking home without any out-and-back or shuttling component is intriguing. Or you could lock the bike up when terrorizing chains of local lakes.
7 PM

Walking 24:00 [0] 1.35 mi (17:46 / mi)
shoes: Brooks Ghost Blue

It was a big weekend and hopefully tomorrow is also big. Too much stuff to do tonight, bleh!
