Event: North American Orienteering Championships
 

Warm up on warm up map, plus rush to and from the toilets which were miles from the arena, only just made my start

North American Middle Champs (WRE) awesome terrain and pretty good course to match, started with a loop of short sharp legs through some rocky detail then a 2nd loop with a bit more grunt in it. Was feeling pretty good and best I've navigated in ages, started on the slope early on 3, and hesitated going into 5 but nothing really. Came through the spectator and I think they said I was in 2nd. Then there was a massive climb which I basically walked got the rest fine and felt pretty good going to the last control pushing quite hard. Finished in 1st equal with Boris (but red group hadn't started yet) but we stayed there for a while which was quite cool, ended up 11th (making up 2 places in the finish sprint yeah), not too bad considering fitness.
