At last Sunday's sprint at Spring Lake near Santa Rosa, CA, James Scarborough strapped on a head camera and recorded part of his run. Incidentally, Spring Lake is the proposed sprint venue for the bid BAOC is submitting for the Team Trials in 2009.

Some people saw me with a digital camera strapped to my forehead at Spring Lake. It was a fun sprint to record. We got the first 7 controls. Check out the video/VeoGeo links on the blog entry. You can follow along if you also open up the scan of the O map.

Maybe this could be an aid for training? RouteGadget is an excellent information source on how different people choose roots and execute (successfully or not). Additionally, from this video you can hear my thought process (as huffed out into words) and how certain mistakes and hesitations came to be.
Less beneficial, I was catching up to Rex after number 10 and he was excited at the possibility of "essentially a view of his butt"
commandeering the second half of the video. For better or worse, the camera ran out of memory at number 7.
