orienteering race 42:32 [5] *** 4.0 km (10:38 / km) +160m 8:52 / km
15c
Still, not my race. Almost spiked control 1... almost. I don't even know what i was thinking, but i turned around before i got to the control and spent bout 5min running around trying to figure out where i was... bummer. 3 didn't work out so well either, and then 8 was close to a disaster, but thank goodness for stone walls. i found that i just couldn't run in a straight line, so i'm blaming my compass. :P got through the rest of the course without any other problems although i did play it a little safer even though i didn't really have to.

Event: US Team Trials
orienteering race 24:52 [5] *** 3.1 km (8:01 / km) +58m 7:20 / km
8c
Not a great race, but still tons of fun!!! though i did lose the bet that andrew couldn't beat me... shucks!
super duper fast and it was fatal if you didn't thumb along or even worse, lost contact with the map. Lost a total of 2min on 9 and 10 but i'm so proud of myself; i had no idea where i ended up going to 10, and so just like we practiced on wednesday, i stopped, figured out where i had gone, figured out where i was, and then went and got the control!! yay!!! couldn't saved some more time if i had bothered to read all of the walls and such.

running race 5:17 [5] 1.5 km (3:31 / km)
