If they are competing for Team USA, then I cheer for Team USA. I couldn't care less what club(s) they are from.

WUOC team has just finished up our second day out on a map today. yesterday was a local event relevant for the middle. and today was the model event next to the relay/middle terrain. Very rocky underfoot but people are confident. Opening ceremony tonight and then long tomorrow!

Alison, I've heard some talk of running in road shoes rather than spikes because of the hard ground. What's your impression?

Jul 2, 2012 8:55 PM #

Acampbell:

I wouldn't run in road shoes, but deff trail shoes! I'm going to bring both my spikes and trail shoes tomorrow. but think I'll end up in trail shoes. you want the extra grip on the climbs as they kinda come out from under you.

I thought it was illegal to follow orienteers at international competitions.

following US orienteers is its own punishment.
