Orienteering 2:12:50 ** 7.23 mi (18:22 / mi) +309m 16:13 / mi
ahr:158 max:180 spiked:20/20c slept:5.0 weight:213lbs shoes: Roclite #2
Ugh, doors blown off. Next year, I'll drive the extra three hours to Cabin Fever and finish 15 spots higher. :|
Bad strat from the start - in 3rd wave, caught a four person line at first challenge, figured we'd grab nearest two CPs to let it disperse, returned to 20 person line, deferred that challenge for end.
Struggled a bit on word puzzle, usually I'm better at that sort of thing. Also, we can't count. :\ Clean the rest of the way around the loop, perhaps inefficient or overly conservative 6 to 1/2.
By then challenges were dispersed and dispatched quickly. In hindsight, should have either gone the less popular CCW or omitted 18, 19, 20 and went into the middle-ish to pick up nearby challenges later with less density.
Should have picked up 12 on way out, nice control, hard to optimize. Have to check track, poor strat at 18 is good enough to cover a good chunk of time lost to the rest of 'em. Also faster off trail snow slogging could help, didn't run as much as would be ideal. I need to run off trail more since I shuffle so much on the road it's inadequate prep for high steppin'.
Disappointed.

Control pick up, tried to do some new lines, less than ideal from 4-1, but a bit vague feature wise plus random fences.

XC Ski 44:38 3.52 mi (12:40 / mi) +44m 12:12 / mi
ahr:147 max:171 shoes: Rossignol skis
Barely made it in time to crank off a lot to corner and back @ Maybury. The little smaller trails called to me, but not enough time. Another day, little trails. Another day.

Weights (Shoveling) 1:00:00 [3]
Buddy's in Cali, his mom was snowed in at his place in metro Ypsi. Randomly their furnace stopped working as I headed over, but fortunately it was something I've dealt with on mine so she had heat after a temporary repair (And our little backup infrared heater on standby) when I left.
Halfway though the driveway I just took the gloves off and was still warm. So heavy ...so much snow.
