Orienteering Meet race 41:39 [5] *** 2.8 km (14:53 / km) +80m 13:01 / km
spiked:10/13c shoes: Icebug green #5
US Middle Champs at Dutch lake Idaho. Once again beautiful woods minus the pixie sticks all over the woods.
Lost 5 minutes on No 7 by drifting to much to the right and never seeing the small pond that was hidden by a spur to its east., I didn't hug the spur to the control long enough. Great event and finish to a great 8 days of fine orienteering.
I ended in fourth in M-60.

ahr:140 max:178 spiked:14/16c shoes: Icebug green #5
US Long Champs in Stanley Idaho.
Very cool terrain, would be fantastic if there wasn't so much pine slash all over the map.
Double map in one bag. Trying not to make the mistake I did in Croatia on a sprint map, which was flip the map and go looking for the start triangle when I was standing at it. 7K course I tried to start out easy and pick up the pace as I got into the map, but the slash just keep the speed down. My biggest mistake was going to 7 and thinking the river was a handrail and it was the pond and I was lucky to hit the trail and backtrack 50 meters to the control. Funny I had the fastest split on the next control.
Rick B and I were tied at the 13th control and he ended up winning m-60 by 49 seconds.
Lots of others were right in there within or near our time.
Pretty fantastic scenery in this area with the snowy Sawtooth Mountains looming in the background.

Orienteering Meet race 18:37 **** 3.46 km (5:23 / km)
ahr:128 max:174 spiked:14/15c shoes: Montrail light racers
US Sprint Champs at Boise St University.
Pretty straight forward campus, with no tricky stuff.
I made a few bobbles and could of had a few better route choices especially on 8 and 10.
Overall I had the best M-60 time.
JP Lande also won M-55 so we had a nice ride to the mountains and happy to leave any heat back down there.

90 minute score O...Fairly small map and most people sweep. I missed a control and had decided to go up hill to the next control and come down, but later saw I had to climb again. Missed a control and just jogged in, I wanted to only run an hour and shut it down anyway.

Riverside Park Spokane Washington.
I thought I liked this park, but some how the energy wasn't there and some tough controls near the beginning of the course got the better of me and this was the green course.
