Running 30:00 [2] 5.0 km (6:00 / km)
shoes: VJ Supra 2012 #2
Warm-ups
Orienteering race 14:28 [5] 2.9 km (4:59 / km)
shoes: VJ Supra 2012 #2
NAOC Sprint.
A solid race from start to finish, though I apparently lost a bit of time on 11 and 15. It was encouraging to catch Damian going to 4, but running with him for most of the rest of the way was a bit of a distraction, as he kept running super-fast, but in slightly wrong directions. Knew I'd had a good race when I finished, was happy to see Ross come in ahead of me and Giacomo match my time, but had to admit that I was devastated when Andrew Childs knocked us off the podium, even if it's so awesome to see him running well.

NAOC Relay
I was spent before the start of the relay, and my race reflected that. I wasn't making good decisions and did not have good focus from start to finish.

Warming up and then cooling down very slowly with Kenny and Giacomo
Orienteering race 1:47:45 [4] 13.5 km (7:59 / km)
shoes: VJ Supra 2012 #2
NAOC Long
Lost a little too much time on routes, especially to 13. Another mistake on 8, but otherwise a good effort, helped by battling it out with Mike Smith for the second half of the course. Really didn't have anything more in the tank when I finished, but it was amazing to hear the crowd during the last loop of the course. Ended up 7th North American, 3rd US, so scoring for the BK Cup again. So happy to see Ross take home the North American title!!

NAOC Middle
Lost the race already at #1, just like a few others did. More bobbles at 2,3, and 4, then finally got into it and had several good controls. Didn't understand rock mapping at 11, and so lost some more time in the circle there. Good otherwise, but just too many mistakes. Really hoped for a NAOC medal here, but ended up about 30 seconds out, 4th North American. Great job by Eric keeping it together better than the rest of us.

Orienteering 35:00 [2]
shoes: VJ Falcons 2012
NAOC model event. Green and prickly at times, wide open and fast at others. Surprisingly rocky underfoot. Nice to be out orienteering in the warm sunshine. Really enjoyed everything, except for my painful toe.
Note
Made it to the US after chasing after some lost luggage at EWR. Drove to New Haven and spent the night at Rob and Becky's, surrounded by devil cats, who were better behaved than usual. Then a giant American breakfast with Becky and Rob and Will and Claire. So nice to see them all! Now: off to NAOC!
