orienteering race 17:26 [4] 2.5 km (6:58 / km)
Sprint at the College of the Rockies. A very fast forest sprint. Nothing left in my legs after the full week of racing, pretty fast first four splits, but slowing down in the side hill part and very slow running towards the end. I did not catch up to Meghan, but I saw her from 10/11 just in front of me. Fun exciting arena.

orienteering race 1:36:49 [4] 9.3 km (10:25 / km) +350m 8:46 / km
Long at NAOC. I was very pleased with my race. Had fun on the long route choices and loved even the hills. Messed up a bit number 8 and went a bit slow in the hills around 10, 11, but loved the map and did not even mind the length. Ran into Nicki around 10 and kept close to her. I just have to become more competitive to do a better result.

orienteering race 47:33 [4] 4.2 km (11:19 / km) +160m 9:31 / km
Middle at NAOC. I did not make any mistake in the rocks at the beginning but my route choice to 2 was maybe not the fastest. Left some time on 6 running too far and slwed down too much after the spectator area in the open hills. Ran into Aby and Charlotte and kept close to them in the second half. Fun course.

orienteering 45:33 [4] 5.5 km (8:17 / km) +150m 7:17 / km
Thomass event at the Nordic trails in Kimberley. I felt like a horse in a horse race, so many fast people around me. Had trouble to make it up the crazy hill and did not feel motivated for it. Came third of the W Elite. It was difficult to decide what to skip.

hiking 2:00:00 [3] 3.0 km (40:00 / km) +900m 16:00 / km
Hike towards Fisher Peak in the Rockies above Cranbrook. We could not find the access road (wrong direction from the internet) for a while and did not have time and equipment to go all the way up, but made it pretty far into a nice basin with ponds and snow around - elevation 2200 m. The trail ends here.Pretty steep! Good training in the heat.Beautiful waterfall up there.
hiking 1:30:00 [2] 3.0 km (30:00 / km)
Hike down from Fisher Peak approach. I always find more difficult to hike down than up. Some bolder fields very difficult to hike down in runners.
