Sprint Team Trials Red course. 3.4k, 60m. At Maryland Soccerplex near Germantown, MD. Fun course by Linda K on an excellent map by Nadim. Lots of fast running on pavement or grass but also significant rough open to negotiate. Enough contour detail that sight lines were often restricted, so it wasn't just look and run. Low 50s with light rain.
Sprint skills were a little rusty. Hesitated on the way to 2 adjusting to the map scale (I thought this was a great leg, especially early in the course, forcing you to use vegetation detail to navigate). Hesitated at 9 trying to figure out the vegetation. Some sub-optimal execution of routes on a few legs. Lost about 30 seconds to 6 since I initially planned a route from 5 to 7 which made my approach to 6 longer once I corrected. Probably could've pushed a bit harder if the race had any significance but saw no need to.
