Event: US Interscholastic and Intercollegiate Championships
 

Texas Day 1. Crazy day. My head was not in it, and I didn't trust my new thumb compass. Bad combination. Made mistakes on almost every control. Big mistakes on 12 and 13. Then I thought I had to go from 16 to 3, went way out of the way.

D1 Green A - Splits

Travel day to Texas. Mike, Sandy and I drove down in my car. It was so nice to have Sandy's company. And to have a third driver. Although her stick driving skills were a bit rusty, she warmed up quickly.
Nice pizza dinner with the whole OK/PTOC contingent. Saw JanetT and Glen there, too.

Just a short jaunt around Holcom to get the blood moving after sitting in meetings all day.

We took it easy tonight due to this weekend's races.

You would think it would be a piece of cake to run a course that I helped design, and even put out all of the controls last week. But today there were no markers and I pushed too hard on the trials, and made a stupid parallel error on the way to 4 (went up one reentrant too soon). Did OK on the rest of the course, but I was tired by the end.
