| Well, today started out promising but after the third control was again quite easy and mainly just a physical challenge. I managed to slop up #3, so I guess I can't complain too much. Yesterday and today were decent results, I think. The AP ranking looks lower than I expected. I guess nobody had big mistakes. |

blue day 2 - Splits |
Saturday Aug 4 |
| Orienteering race 1:25:00 [3] *** 11.3 km (7:31 / km) +285m 6:41 / km | |
| spiked:19/22c shoes: Adidas Novas |
| Had zero energy, probably some combination of altitude and lack of training. The course was quite easy, and not a great use of the terrain. For some reason, they decided to put the water on roads. Only, not actually on the roads, but in grassy ditches beside the roads. Lost a minute on that one. Also the water wasn't exactly where indicated on the map. Wouldn't be such a problem back in Boston, but since I'm puffing away on the low oxygen, water is pretty essential. |

| Took a late flight out last night to Denver and spent the night in the airport. Then got a ride out this morning to the convention. I decided I should at least jog around a bit before tomorrow, so I went for a really short jog with the Hubermans. Tried some strides afterwards. Altitude is not fun. |
