Sprint O at Longview. I guess I expected park O, so I was pretty frustrated when we had lots of high grass and thons to penetrate. Not fun. Also, I was thinking too much about the running, and not enough about the orienteering, so I made a silly route choice late in the course. Must remember not to do this during the Sprint Finals weekend. | ||

Moving around on the trails at SMP. The trails are rock hard from lack of rain, so the mountain bikers were riding very fast. | ||

| A fun visit with Anna and John, who stopped over on the drive east. Very encouraging to see how excited and motivated they both are about orienteering. Now I just have to convince Anna to apply to Cornell... | ||

Day Two at the US Champs did not go as well. I was not reading the map in advance, just reacting to what I saw. And then came control 2. It was tricky and a lot of folks missed it. I din't mind that I missed it the first time. I do mind that I wandered first, then finally relocated, three times, before I found it. I should have stopped and relocated immediately; instead I wasted 15 minutes. Still need to work on this !!!!! At least I settled down after that, and started to read the map. The rest of the course was slow, with some stupid route choices (like taking the eastern stream to #4, instead of the western one) but no big bobbles. Still sucking wind the whole way. At least the finish was downhill today, so I had some fun sprinting in at the end. And a first: climbing a ladder on the way to the start! Very fun and unique. | ||
