Sprint Finals at Cranbury Park (CT), Sprint A. I'm using a very strict definition of a spike here, the total time lost on the various tiny errors probably amounts to something n the order of a minute.

Sprint B. Cleaner, my only real error was stopping inside the circle at #11, momentarily confused as to where I could be, with the control just off my right shoulder — pretty minor.

"All comers" mass-start Sprint C. Leading a pack early on, then I was in hot pursuit of some pretty fast guys on the final loop. It finally came down to my closing a gap on Spike over the last few controls. I caught him at the last one, and then it was an all-out dash to the finish line, which I think he won by a step or two.
