West Point Day 2 green course. Little better today, probably fewer minutes of mistakes and could run a little faster because of less climb and fewer blueberries. A little high on 2 as a crossed the final stream but figured out where I was quickly. Lost contact going to 8 and overshot it. Relocated at the small pond that's on the way to 9 and went back. Veered off to the south as I neared 10 and then hesitated some in the circle, thinking it should be lower on the hill than it was.

Event: West Point A-Meet
 

West Point day 1 Green course. Mediocre run. Fine until 6. Couldn't figure out an attackpoint and had trouble tracking all the small rock and contour feature along the way. Read the saddle as being higher on the hill than it was so even when I saw the control from above, I didn't think it was mine. Probably lost a couple of minutes. I think I was distracted from that so when I got to the trail to go to 7, turned left. Ran for a hundred meters or more until I caught it and turned around. Then came into 7 from the trail a little early. Slow going to 8 cause there was more green than mapped. Then at 10, veered off to a flag on a boulder that was lower than our reentrant. Aside from the mistakes, I just felt really slow slogging thru the blueberries and rocks.
