| WCOC meet at Huntington. Didn't orienteer as badly as the per k time suggests: it was warm and muggy, and many controls were in technical areas, or areas of low visibility - and Lots of laurel! Made three 2-3 minute mistakes. But always figured out pretty quickly what I had done wrong. |

Warmer this year (70 degrees and hot sun at the bottom, though not humid; and very, very wet. Wearing XC racing shoes was a huge mistake: no traction on wet rock or wood. Enjoyed it, but scary how slow I am. Splits: 57:21, 1:22:28, 1:53:19, 2:01:34. |

| Day 2 Red course at the Notch. Very slow, but still very tiring, as I can't shake my cold/cough. Bunch of "mistakes", probably totaling 8 minutes. (Had to hunt for knoll on 3, badly missed boulder on 5. Also, tried some alternate routes: went around to reentrant at base of mountain on 7 -- very slow route! Frost, then cut across to power line trail for 11 -- definitely the fastest route.) |
