What should you do when arriving to the course for Sequencing Step Two?

• A. Arrive early to look over course & forecast for the day
• B. Rush to begin activities
• C. Postpone to check forms
• D. Start with water break

Answer: (A)

Arriving early to review the course and forecast for the day sets up a safe, well-paced plan. This early check lets you verify the course layout, equipment status, participant readiness, and any weather or site conditions that could affect the sequence. With that information, you can tailor the progression of challenges, anticipate hazards, and lock in the safety procedures and briefings needed before activities start. Rushing to begin skips these crucial preparations and increases risk, while delaying for forms or insisting on a break right away disrupts flow and readiness. Hydration and warm-ups are important, but they belong after the initial planning and safety checks are in place.
