| Short Course at the Team Trials. An interesting race: an excellent result (2nd on green overall), running felt strong and easy and I only walked in a couple of places where it was thick, but I couldn't hold a bearing and was always correcting. Luckily I was reading the map well, my pace-counting was on target, and except for #4 always knew which way to turn if the control wasn't where I expected it. But it sure made for a nervous feeling race! |

| Sprint race at the team trials. Pleasantly surprised by the result since I didn't feel particularly good running. But I was able to read the map well and had very few hesitations so I guess that paid off. Was able to run most of the course. |

| Iron Hill green course. Messed up 3 & 4 losing many minutes; relatively clean to everything else. The woods were thick but easy to move through in places - as in no prickers and thorns to grab you, just stuff everywhere. Enjoyed myself which I didn't expect - the vegetation seemed much more benign than in the past. |
