| Fairly easy run, though it felt a lot harder than I was hoping for. I haven't run for a while, so it took me a bit to get into the swing of things again. Started the run around 5:20pm and definitely got caught in the dark, which isn't cool when on a busy road. But the amazingly full moon made it worth it, though I fell asleep before I could watch the eclipse. |

| Went for a 2.5 hour walk in the woods on Burnt Mtn map in Hanover, with Kristoffer. His ankle was really bothering him after the race yesterday, but we went out anyway. Felt good to move around a bit, but not too much! |

| Genesis Sprint Championship
Ringwood S.P. New Jersey/New York
Raced with Bryon for Timex. spent most of the race in 3rd overall, until the final 5 mile "trek" run where we passed the first two teams to finish first overall. We also won the series and got free entry to a 3 day stage race in Mexico!!
It's very cool to look back to the first race of this series and see how far I've come, how much I've learned about this AR stuff, in only a summer. And I'm still learning. |

| Slept off and on between packing and driving, super dehydrated and kind of sick to my stomache after living on clif bars and gels for so long. My feet are killing me and I think my toes are going to fall off! |

Unofficial 11th place in co-ed category. Race went alright, made some nav errors on orienteering section and mtn bike, otherwise race was slow due to inexperience and injuries. We'll win next time. ;-)
Very cool to be racing with top teams in the country and world. and especially to out-nav them!

32 mile mtn. bike (road and trails)
4 mile hike a bike (with some rock climbing involved)

Raced on and around the Intrepid, a decommissioned aircraft carrier docked in Manhattan. Included a rappel into the hudson River (really gross) from the flight deck, swim 75m to climb up a cargo net, run along catwalks to a zipline, back into the water, climb up onto the dock and sprint to the finish. Finished around 4th/53 teams!! (These are unofficial results) |

| About a 30 min woods run, until Kristoffer twisted his ankle real bad. I ended up carrying him out of the woods (we were almost 1.5 miles in). Hopefully he gets better by next weekend!??? |
