 | Orienteering (US Champs Day 2 M45+) 1:14:12 [5]8.39 km (8:51 / km) +295m 7:31 / km | |
| spiked:11/13c |
| Second good run in as many days - the first time I've managed to land on the podium (3rd) at a US Champs since I was a junior (that would be 1978)!
A very similar run to the day before - with slightly better execution and less accountable mistakes. Shaky on #2 (came in way high). From #9 to finish, I beat all others on RedY - really pushed it. Even though I was 5th on the day, I felt this was my better day. |

| After a shaky start on #1 (lost one minute), I settled in and ran a focused race. #9 was squirrely and I bailed out to the road 75 m short of the control, lost ~2 minutes there. Three minutes mistakes, another minute or two on shaky execution. My best run since Wyoming. |
