Northern champs at High Dam. Running going smoothly until control 8 (exactly like yesterday), where I lost about a minute looking too high up the slope. Another 30s lost at 9 from overshooting because I couldn't see the wall as planned. Then to cap it off lost 5 minutes on 10, searching almost within the control circle the whole time, just kept thinking I had overshot. Again, I need to practice relocation. After that the run went fine navigationally, but I was slowing down towards the end - I need more practice on hilly terrain.

British middles. Run was going perfect until control 8 where I left the path too early and was searching around every re-entrant just south of the control, loosing about 5 minutes (need to get better at backtracking earlier to relocate). The rest of the course was fine.

Great sprint race, no mistakes and running fairly good
