| Run with Lehel and Thomas. First up Lynn Peak. We got to around the 800 m level, but then the snow got so deep that it started to be ridiculous. Then we ran north on the upper trail above Lynn Creek, back along the creek itself and finally up the stairs to Mountain Hwy. |

| Partner exercise at Stanley Park. I had the odd controls on my map, Matt Hryciuk had the even. Forces you to map read all the time, as half of the time you don't know where you are going... fun! |
| Orienteering City/Park 15:42 [4] | |
| |

| Orienteering City/Park 14:45 [4] 2.6 km (5:40 / km) | |
| |
| Race at Acadia. Very tricky residential area, which is great for sprint orienteering. I ran pretty hard, even though recovering from a cold. It was so much fun to have all the fast guys around for the camp. I did well, but part of it is that I've run in this area before. One control got stolen, but that didn't cause me too much problem. I looked for maybe 10 seconds and then decided to move on. |
