Orienteering 1:09:32 [4] **** 7.6 km (9:09 / km) +282m 7:43 / km
spiked:15/18c
Difficult! red course at US Champs. Great, great terrain. My compass flew out of my hand on the way to #1 and so I had to read the map the rest of the course. Thus, I went slower, stayed on the map, and didn't make any big mistakes. It paid dividends.
Orienteering (model event) 35:00 [3] *** 4.0 km (8:45 / km)
spiked:5/6c
I didn't get into Plymouth until 11 PM the night before, so I got up early and ran a loop on the Hep Cat map around 8 AM. It was good to see the mapping style ahead of time.
Orienteering (control retrieval) 30:00 [2] *** 2.5 km (12:00 / km)
spiked:3/3c
Retrieved the three farthest controls on the Day 1 blue course. Very nice woods out that way.

Orienteering (night-o) 1:02:30 [4] *** 6.5 km (9:37 / km)
spiked:10/17c
TNT Night-O by Todd. 5 normal controls to a handicapped score-O section. Not one of my best performances - spent too much time thrashing off trail. Cool and wet.

Orienteering 1:49:20 [4] **** 13.0 km (8:25 / km) +120m 8:02 / km
spiked:22/26c
2009 Minnegoat. Navigation was good, a few errors but no big booms. Pack run with Ian, Justin and Tom through the first 18 controls. Skipped 18 and got ahead, but the other three skipped 25 and I could only catch up with Ian. Andrei was ahead for most of the race but fell behind Justin/Tom and in front of me and Ian. Swampfox won. Really beautiful and complex terrain.
Orienteering (control retrieval) 25:00 [3] *** 2.7 km (9:16 / km)
