Mid-Atlantic Championships Blue Course on the Hammond Rocks Map in PA. I started well but lost time here and there. The worst was pulling-up short on #5. I also fell on some rocks at #12 scraping skin off my palm and shin then mashing my bloody palm in the dirt. I finished 9th out of 18 with good competition. The woods were generally fast. See the Split List.

Mid-Atlantic Championships Relay on the Hammond Rocks Map in PA. I ran lead leg for a team with Jon Torrance and Peggy. My course was the shortest and easiest (of yellow difficulty). I was a bit tired from the Blue course but probably no less than Randy who beat me by 20 minutes on it earlier. I felt like I was slogging up the trails. The scale 1:7500 and a shift in steepness that I mistook for a ridge prompted me to leave the trail early while in the lead. Randy caught up and took the lead on the downhill through the rough logged area. We ran pretty even with him running faster in the woods and I faster on the trails. I bobbled the last one when I saw a control from the regular courses, headed toward it, changed my mind, then headed again toward it when Randy did. We concluded it wasn't it then got to the right spot together. I out sprinted him at the end for the team but felt maybe I shouldn't have. On Jon's leg he gave us a 2 minute lead. They (Randy, Clem and Wyatt) got the better of us in the end as the 5:00 min handicap was not sufficient for the women.
