ROC Durand Sprint - Fairly challenging course with the hills and the heat - but a good distance course and layout. Unfortunately #9 was not placed well and cost me almost 1:30. Sergey come home with the victory about 1:10 in front of me - so it could have been much closer. (not sure how the misplacement affected him).
It could have been worse - Pete Dady lost about 3-4 min and only found it on his way out of the area after giving up.

ROC Durand Score-O. 20 of 24 controls
This was punishing. About the only thing I enjoyed was finding a way yo get to the eastern ridge w/o going on the golf course. The southern tip of the swamp was forgiving.
However, the heat was not. At about 40 minutes in, I was walking and trying to decide if I should bag it after 50 minutes or go for another loop of 3 controls. In the end I went for the last 3 and tied the Borden Boys Team for number of controls (although they can in a minute ahead of me).
