Sprint. Ran hard, didn't feel super focused, was clean except 12 where I got the trails mixed up, saw the control, but thought I wasn't there yet and tried to get around the spectator area (why the heck are the flags in the way?!) I'll update controls info once I have a sec in Bozeman in the next couple days (yeet!) Overall, NAOC was a great event, thanks to all the organizers for putting it on!

Relay!!! Okay so when Julia handed me the map I forgot there was a map flip, so I stood at the start triangle for like 2 minutes trying to figure out why they would have the first control be 5, and moreover why they wouldn't draw a start triangle on the map. Then realized and took off. Had a couple screw ups towards the beginning and a bad route choice to 7 (too far up the hill), but I'm happy with how I ran the last portion of my race. Not very difficult technically but it was fun to be out on the trails with a bunch of other competitors.

Middle. Yikes. Goal was to go slow and nail the navigation to run a safe race. I did a great job of going slow where I could have picked it up and a great job of not paying close enough attention where I should have slowed down. Big mistake on 6 and lots of slow, stupid hesitation and minor errors the rest of the way. Also struggled to pick paths through all the deadfall.

NAOC Long. Yikes.
2 was my first mistake. I'm thinking I lost around 3:30-4 minutes. Passed between the two marshes and got thrown off by a ride-looking thing that wasn't mapped, missed my reentrant, messed around in the woods, and bailed back to the marsh to relocate.

3 was good, 4 I was on the spur below the hilltop for a while before I realized it (-30s ?), then thought I was leaving 3 when I left 4 but recovered quickly.

6 and 7 were good, and then 8... oh boy. would have been good, but I got off on my compass and lost map contact and ended up on the small trail about 200m ENE of 7. ran W to the intersection, figured out where I was, rest of course was fine from there.

Overall was super frustrated when I finished and annoyed that 2 huge mistakes had ruined an otherwise great race for me. The win was a surprise and although it feels good, I'm not going to take it as a pass for success a race that was subpar and not clean.
