| Day 2 of the NEOC meet. Had a great run. Woods were quite open, I had a couple small errors, maybe 2-3 minutes, if that. Course wasn't very technically challenging. I think the map could be "complex" but the course wasn't more than "advanced o'". |

| NEOC Wells State Park, Red day 1. Had a nice run. In the past, I've usually had enough mistakes that I feel if I were to train real hard physically and not make mistakes, I could maybe be comparable to Leif or John. Today, I've come to the realization that that is either not possible or will involve a whole heck of a lot more training than I previously had in mind. I'm just not that fast. I made no more than 3 minutes of mistakes.
Before the run, right arch felt like it would give out, but it didn't. Felt so-so afterwards. |

| NEOC sprint relay. Had another nice run. Was first to the first control (woo-hoo!) then Kenny passed me on the way to #2, and Greg passed me on the hill to #3. The last time I saw Greg was on the way to #5 when I caught a glimpse of his uniform. After that I was fine, but tired from the climb. Was unable to shake one of the cadets who tagged along for the whole course. Fortunately I had enough left at the end to beat him in the chute.
Arch felt fine during the race, but when I got out of the car at MIT and tried walking it didn't feel so good. Hopefully it'll be ok tomorrow. |

| Museum loop. Arches have been feeling not-so-good all week, I suspect due to lack of sleep (it's seemed fairly correlated in the past, too). They loosened up after 15 minutes or so. Legs felt great otherwise, mentally tired, though. |
