| Event: US Middle Distance and Relay Champs |
 | Orienteering race 1:05:53 [5] *** 4.59 km (14:21 / km) +150m 12:20 / km | |
| spiked:10/14c shoes: Vasque Orienteering |
| Middle Distance Champs at Lechworth State Park. It was really, really hot, and I felt pretty tired right from the beginning. The course was quite steep and this didn't really help either. I had trouble on number 8 (I actually found 9 first...luckily they were close together), made some small mistakes on a couple of other controls, and got really dehydrated. |
 | Orienteering race 23:44 [4] *** 2.6 km (9:08 / km) | |
| spiked:14/14c shoes: Vasque Orienteering |
| Sprint at the middle distance champs. I was accurate but really, really slow. I think I was still quite dehydrated from the morning course because my head started pounding pretty much as soon as I started the course, and I felt like I was going to throw-up pretty much the entire time. |

 | Orienteering 40:55 [4] *** 3.38 km (12:06 / km) +65m 11:03 / km | |
| spiked:7/11c shoes: Vasque Orienteering |
| Went to the CSU Park-O at Pine Hill, which was a lot of fun! It went pretty well in general, although I got a bit thrown off with all of the trails. |
Monday Apr 14 |
 | Running 30:17 [3] 3.6 mi (8:25 / mi) | |
| shoes: Brooks Running |
| Ran from my apartment to the river and then did the Eliot-Weeks loop. It felt a whole lot better than running in FL but less good than last week. It was a good break from spending the entire rest of the day reading about the aural system of owls, which is less than thrilling... |

| Event: 30th Annual Billygoat Run |
 | Running 27:27 [3] 3.0 mi (9:08 / mi) | |
| shoes: Brooks Running |
| Ran with my dad again in FL. We ran around the golf course again and got told off for being stupid (I guess with respect to the possibility of getting hit with stray golf balls). Then we ran around Coral Gables again to a cool looking cathedral and then back to the hotel and, more specifically, the pool :-). We saw these strange looking, I guess, ducks that looked like a cross between a duck and a vulture. They were quite odd. |
