BC Middle Champs - another steady race in noticeably more runnable but still tough forest. Biggest mistake was going 150 straight on the second last control instead of taking the trail option.

BC Classic Champs - good steady race except for one bad attack a mere 80 meters from the end of a trail. Actually, my route choice for that leg was also suspect. For the most part, I think the amazingly and uniformly deadfall strewn "white" woods slowed me down to a speed at which I'm navigationally competent.
Day 1 of the BC Orienteering Championships - just found out a friend has moved to Vancouver so, what the hell, I'll go to the races and be his first house guest. I'll finally have time to see Vancouver other than from a moving car.

BC Sprint Champs - serious mistake on first control cost me competitiveness; otherwise a good race.
Nejla being out of the country, Carla led a review of the choreography we learnt in the first class a week ago as a refresher for the muscle memory. I think we ended up changing a few subtle things but Nejla can correct those on her return and it definitely helped to cement the basic sequence of actions.
