| Event: Western States + Intercollegiate Championships |
 | Orienteering race 1:09:15 [5] *** 5.6 km (12:22 / km) +170m 10:44 / km | |
| spiked:10/11c shoes: Vasque Orienteering |
| Intercollegiate Championships at Coronado National Forest in AZ. I was having a lot of trouble with the altitude and basically had to walk all of the hills, which induced me to go around a lot of the re-entrants instead of just running across them. I came in to number 7 a couple of re-entrants too far to the south, checked one or two north of where I came in and then ran south for a while. I lost a couple of minutes in there. |
 | Orienteering race 30:03 [5] *** 2.9 km (10:22 / km) +90m 8:58 / km | |
| spiked:11/14c shoes: Vasque Orienteering |
| Sprint at Intercollegiates. I was trying to run faster than I was navigating, which worked ok for a while and then came back to haunt me at controls 6, 7, and 9, where I made a couple of minutes of errors. The altitude was definitely still a problem. |

 | Orienteering 40:00 [2] *** 4.4 km (9:05 / km) | |
| spiked:13/14c shoes: Vasque Orienteering |
| Arthur Pack compass training. I basically went in a straight line to every control. I jogged kind of slowly for the entire course and didn't have any errors except for number 14, which I stood in front of for a while wondering why I didn't see a ribbon before actually seeing the ribbon. It was kind of like orienteering on another planet. One with carnivorous plants... |
 | Orienteering (Trail-O) 1:00:00 [0] *** | |
| |
| Trail-O at Arthur Pack State Park. I got 9 out of 13 controls correct. It was really cool just walking around with all of the cacti. |

| shoes: Brooks Running |
| Ran from my apartment to the river and then tried to do the Weeks to Harvard bridge loop but apparently they have completely ripped up the sidewalk between Western Ave and the BU bridge on the Boston side of the river, so I crossed the river at Western Ave and again at the BU bridge. |
