CNYO Rogaine July 23rd
-
Topic created by chand on Wed May 18, 2016 at 11:10 amI need a partner for the CNYO Rogaine this July 23rd. I'd prefer the 12 hour but could stumble through the 24 hour if need be. Not interested in doing the 6 hour event.
I'm 49, in reasonable shape and decent at rogaine-level (coarse) orienteering. I've done two CNYO rogaines already and they are most excellent, and my teams have done pretty well in the 12 hour category.
I'd be continuing onward to Ontario afterwards so unable to provide/share a ride.

Reply by markwalsh on Sun May 22, 2016 at 5:16 pmI am also looking for a partner for CNYO rogaine.....I'd perfer the 24 hr version with little of no sleep.Would be willing to do 12 hr with option to switch to 24hr if partner is up to it......not adverse to 3 to 5hrs rest at home base or wherever if needed for sleep and fueling...I usually wind up eating up two or so hours resting and refueling at base camp when splitting the courseI don't run much anymore unless conditions warrant....could squeeze out some miles on road or trails (10 or so in spurts ) but would rather expend that type of energy at night when a little cooler......I rarely run through non trailed forests ...mostly fast non stop hiking unless steep tough terrain....then 30 sec rests are needed.Ideal partner would be able to offset recognize overambitious and unrealistc plans and be able to adjust and compute route reasonableness on the fly.marky_marky@msn.com
