Written by Cristina Luis   
Thanks to everyone who came to the street-o at Palo Verde Park on July 19th! If you missed the event you can still take a look at the map or even go out and give it a try on your own time. Alternatively, if it's too hot for you to go outside, give it a try using Google Street View.

Meet notes from meet director Art Cantrell:

Runners galore!  Tucson’s Workout Group was well represented on a hot Sunday morning on the east side of Tucson.  In fact, half of the participants who came out for this month’s Palo Verde Park meet were new to orienteering.  Cristina Luis and Melissa Trout set a fast and flat street-O with plenty of (mentally) challenging controls.  Runners had the choice of a short (8 of 15 controls) or long (12 of 15 controls) course through the neighborhood surrounding the park.  Top billing goes to Mark Everett for the long course and Tim Bentley for the short.  See below for full meet results.

Thanks to Cristina and Melissa for getting all the runners up and out of bed with their course. Special thanks to Kelly Morales (who endured the 5am drive from Sahuarita) for manning the timing table all morning. Also thanks to Performance Footwear, who donated PowerBar gel blasts for post-race refueling.
