Camp Sekani, Spokane, WA. I ran/jogged up the steep hill to the start of the US Orienteering Sprint Championships.
Orienteering (Foot) 27:53 2.5 km (11:09 / km) +65m 9:52 / km

US Sprint Championships at Camp Sekani, Spokane, WA. My feet were blistered and otherwise torn-up from the run yesterday. I did what I could to get them ready and wore trail shoes for this race--not my preferred choice for steep slopes with pine needles. I had an early start so the only person that I knew was on my course that I saw was David Yee. With the steep slopes I knew that errors would be costly so I ran cautiously. I felt I didn't lose much time for almost the whole course. I sometimes went to the wrong rock but always managed to stop near the control and find it quickly. A few times, I was standing right next to it and didn't see it as it was behind a rock or just hung very low. On a leg to a prominent cliff with a thicket (#10?) I got too low. At the end, I hadn't visualized a feature correctly. Instead of a man made wall (more like a dam that's high on one side and ground level on the other), I expected a cliff. I saw a cliff almost on the line so I ran toward it without seeing the control and had to come back.
