| Orienteering race 1:46:16 [4]8.9 km (11:56 / km) +270m 10:22 / km | |
| |
| Warm-up race at WMOC. Thought we had signed up for a 7 k race but it turned out to be 9 k--a bit longer than I wanted. A number of small (30 sec to 1 min) mistakes but nothing major. Ran out of gas though after about 5 k and there was almost no water on the course, which was tough in 90 degree plus heat. Terrain very reminiscent of the French terrain from last year but the woods were less runnable in some areas. |

| Event: WCOC Crandalls Park
|
| Orienteering race 22:29 [3]2.2 km (10:13 / km) | |
| |
| Crandall's Park, sprint A
Wasn't real happy with this run but after butchering the Red, this one didn't look so bad. Lost a minute or two on 4, veering far left and hit the trail. I was working off a compass bearing, hit a stream and thought it was the one to the right of the cliff (when it was actually the one to the left) and so then veered even farther left. The incorrect n/s lines probably helped. Lost about half a minute on 5, was a litte high in the re-entrant. |

Lost lots of time on 1 and 14 with a few more bobbles along the way. Maybe I should do the advanced courses before the sprint... |
