Orienteering race 1:00:33 [5] 6.8 km (8:54 / km) +93m 8:20 / km
Day 2 NTOA Texas Stampede: Nice weather, sunny - interesting terrain though more briars and less visibility than day 1
Blew number 3: (5-6 minute error) 2 route choice options and opted for more direct choice. Hard time reading whether contours up or down, poor following compass bearing and ended up on trail which was the other route choice option. Compounded mistake by missing reentrant on trail as it did not cross trail. Beyond that a pretty clean run.
Winner: Rick Breseman (COC) 56+ mins
2nd overall
