Event: US Sprint & UltraLong champs
Orienteering race 22:56 [4] 2.2 km (10:25 / km)
shoes: Yellow NB T840
Sprint champs, green course. A reasonable run, except for two mistakes. Lost 30 seconds at 6 by leaving the trail early and getting on the wrong side of the thicket, and then a serious boom at 12 (where some others lost even more time). Had to go out and relocate.

Green Middle Distance course at Mendon Ponds meet. A disastrous first control. Had a lot of trouble reading the map. Came to a depression but couldn't find it on the map, so bailed out to the upper trail and still didn't know where I was. If I could have seen the map in there, I would have known the control was just past the depression. After that a very clean run. Route around to the right on #8 appears inferior to going left, but otherwise pretty fine.
