Orienteering race (Classic day 2 - green ) 1:45:00 [4] 5.8 mi (18:06 / mi) +230m 16:07 / mi
shoes: Speed cross 3
Laughing at this course. I did get misplaced, badly, and still took third. Points 2, 7, and 9 took me awhile. Point 2 I took a poor azimuth, point 7 I failed to find the trail I was looking for and had to terrain associate most of the way. On point 9 I misread the map and did not understand the trail crossed the river twice. Therefore I took an azimuth at the wrong crossing, about 150 meters down the trail and spent 15 minutes trying to find the point in a separate trench system. Practice makes perfect, however and I felt that this improved me.

Orienteering race (Day one of Classic- Green) 1:25:56 [5] 5.3 km (16:13 / km) +215m 13:29 / km
shoes: Speed cross 3
Not going to lie, it was not a good race. Still got third in the green open though. Lost major time at point 2, 5 and 8. Between point 4 and 5 I lost my epunch. Only when I got to 5 did I realized and backtracked my steps until I found it near 4. That point took me 28:19 because of this and prevented a second place. Still it was good practice for a green course.

Orienteering race (Sprint GNC) 21:47 [5] 2.7 km (8:04 / km) +40m 7:31 / km
shoes: Speed cross 3
Second in the Green open. Good race! First green ever and took second behind David, who ran 2 minutes faster. I lost time through poor route choice and parallel error, however those two minutes would have been hard to make up. I really like sprints and wouldn't mind running a red sprint at intercollegiates (Christian if you're reading).

Orienteering (Two gates run ) 34:16 [3] 4.71 mi (7:17 / mi)
shoes: Speed cross 3
597 calories. Obviously some climb on this run, ran pretty well and towards the front. Didn't go super hard because I have four races over the next four days but a decent jog none the less. Ran with Trey for the last miles and that was pretty inspiring.

Orienteering (Time Trail and Workout ) 45:00 [4]
shoes: Speed cross 3
2.06 mile time trail with some climb for a 14:54 time. I finished top third but should of pushed it a little more on the run to buffalo solider. Afterward we did abs and chest with mike. Painful workouts that really test your limits but you feel great after.

Individual Training race (Sprint course Workout ) 45:00 [4]
shoes: Speed cross 3
Did a sprint course around the West Point campus during our tryouts for the new member. My GPS watch had trouble finding the location at first so it took awhile to start. I don't know the time or distance but I was about 25 seconds behind Jake. Afterward we did abs and chest with Prison Mike.
