We were back in DeLand today, looking for rats. Like last time, we ran twice in one day.
The first time in the ring Jedi found both rats, climbed and tunneled. Yay! The judge didn't call time when we reached the 2.5 minute limit. Instead, she let Jedi finish the exercise. We were over by more than a minute, earning a big NQ (non-qualifying score). But we walked out of the ring cheering and celebrating anyway -- Jedi knows nothing about time.
The judge's kindness must have boosted Jedi's confidence. On the second run Jedi completed all the requirements in just over two minutes. Not only did he earn another leg toward his Open title, he was the 3rd fastest time.
We still have one more leg to complete before earning the Open (RATO) title. Unfortunately, it looks like we won't have the chance to do so until January. I hope he remembers what to do! I'll keep you posted. -- K
