Served as a "bus" for the Jr Jr Training camp. 4 of the 5 groups came to my starting point, before catching the other 4 buses, so I went along my route (1 control every 10 minutes) just waiting for Zach's group to get me. They came along just before I left the 4th stop. Than a latecoming group showed up while I was on my way in.
Orienteering (Control Pickup) 40:00*** 3.0 km (13:20 / km) spiked:5/5c
Picked up some Orange controls with Zach. He led us (solidly) to each of the controls, I just got to carry the flags, e-punch units and stands. The youngsters had driven the van away, so I had no plastic bags, but I took off my sweatpants, tied the legs, and they made a fine carrying case for the flags and units.
Orienteering race 1:25:00 [4] *** 7.6 km (11:11 / km) +230m9:43 / km spiked:11/15c
US Night-O Champs. Blew C12 (about 7 minutes), after taking a safe route, but getting lazy at the attackpoint (road intersection, just over 100m away). Had a few other, smaller problems, but that was the bad one (I finished 6.5 minutes behind Emily and 2 minutes behind Ted Good).
Zach flew around his 2.2k course in under 15 minutes, for the win. Nate got Andrew by about 2 minutes, running his 4.7k Orange in just over 40 minutes.
More later - I'm being pressured to leave the HQ area so we can hit the road to Colorado Springs. Gotta make it in time for the Trail-o after all. How is trail-o not even worse than micro-o?
