No mistakes...other than dropping my water bottle 10m before a control and not realizing it until after I punched and had to go back...not enough to cost more than a minute. I finally feel that I know which vegetation I can touch and which must be avoided at all costs, still ended up stopping a couple of times to pick out thorns.

Red Sun Day 2 - Splits

Event: Ironwood 2-Day
 

Ironwood, flat, riddled with small intermittent streams, no catching features, vague attack points, loved it!

Red Sat Day 1 - Splits

major rest day!!!!! But wait...ended up going up to Chimney Rock and doing an half hour of finding controls (mostly walking) and a half hour of easy trail running to get back to the finish in a light rain. It was worth going for the view on the drive up.

Chimney Bluff, nasty wind but only a little rain, night-O cancelled...and that was a good thing.

when I'm told that it's a 4.5k course then can't figure why my pace count is short...just thinking that the tall grass is slowing me down...only to find out when I finish that it was a 1:15, not 1:10...I thought they were yanking my chain.

partner/route choice exercise with Laura...good times.

Event: Saguaro Training Mini-Week
 

Great start to the training camp, loved the track-O and had a lot of fun on the window-O. Lunch was special, going to Cristina's favorite sandwich place. Tonight we are listening to Boris tell us about his Swedish Club and a member of the Swiss team talk about what it's like to be on their team.
