New Haven Training Weekend
The Yale campus sprint. This was the debut of Becky's brand-new sprint map of the Yale campus, and it was awesome. I had already run most of the course on Thursday, so I just wanted to see if I could improve my time and make fewer mistakes. Certainly, having actual controls out there made me focus better and be more careful in the control circle, as well as made me pay more attention to the control descriptions. I don't think I made any obvious mistakes except for not spotting the tape right away a couple of times. Improved my time from Thursday by over 3 minutes despite being pretty tired already. Great course, great map, great fun!
Dinner and socializing at M&M's afterwards was wonderful too, especially after Ross' attempt to burn down our house was foiled. Great to see so many people, everyone smiling and friendly. A few newcomers too, who hopefully were made to feel welcome. Just a great day.
