| Test run of the M21E sprint course for the Western Canadian Champs. Knew the course, of course, but ran a bit slower, trying to simulate reading the map and making decisions. This will not be an easy course. Don't think anyone can do it under 14. |

| Checking all control sites for the Western Canadian Champs Long course. Some running, some walking. I'm excited about the courses. I think it will be a fun event for the runners. |

| Orienteering Forest (race) 33:58 [4] 4.5 km (7:33 / km) | |

| Barebones relay. Ran leg D, which first had a middle distance course. Started second, just before a small pack, which all had the shorter fork in the beginning. Was just ahead of them on a very difficult leg, compass along an indistinct slope. I missed it by a minute, slightly too high, and they passed me. Saw them again on the hill up to 7, but then missed 9 and I never saw anyone. In the end, came in third. Only Ted had passed me. |
| Orienteering Forest (race) 8:33 [4] 1.6 km (5:21 / km) | |

| Last leg of the relay was a short sprint. I went out in second place alone and raced a clean race by myself. A very amazingly fun competition!
