Green course on Buttes Pass Map at Anza-Borrego SP. Good weather, good terrain, good map, really bad orienteering. Not a good debut on M55. Made a bunch of rookie mistakes - distracted by other people, didn't relocate as soon as I should have, wandered aimlessly, etc. Two major errors, a couple of small ones. Could've run about 55 min. Bleah.

Sprint at Anza-Borrego. Fun course in technical terrain. One big error (~4min) one smaller one. Had my first "cholla experience" on the way to the first control, then a few more later in the race. Those things are nasty. Ended up 14th male.
