US Champs Day 1. Tentative on 1-4; slow but no real trouble. Could not make myself go the way I wanted to go to 5 - just kept drifting. Knew pretty much where I was the whole time but slow and sloppy. Finally got it together after 5 with only a few small bobbles after that.
Model Event - slow jog around model event course just trying to get used to the map and terrain. Planned to do a little more but it started raining and I decided keeping dry and warm was just as valuable as visiting controls again.
Rode my mtn bike on the paved bike trail along the Schuylkill River out to Valley Forge - brutal headwind on the way out. Was taking it easy so turned around at Norristown. First 2 miles is pretty much all downhill to the river so the ride ends with the climb back up.
