Flying Pig XIII - Sprint 3 (Blue/Red). Running with the Big Dogs - M21. Urban park with some woods (where most of the controls were), open fields, roads, and trails. Two e-punch boxes weren't working which was a bit of a distraction. Bobbled a short leg which cost about 30 seconds and hesitated going to 11 and lost about 15 sec. 23rd out of 38 running this sprint. Winning time was 14:43 by an M-18.

Flying Pig XIII - US Relay Champs Leg 4 (Green) on (not-eligible) 12 point team with two girls from Channelview/HOC. Mount Airy map. Fun course with a combination of short and longer legs with some route choice. Lots of trails and open fields so controls weren't real technical and I hit all but one of them cleanly. We were in 4th place of the 12 point teams when I started and I knew I had a chance to catch two of the teams (the first place team from ROC had a 20 minute lead with Nate Lyons running the leg). PTOC had a very promising 13-year-old who I caught up to by the first control but then he surprised me by taking 3 or 4 controls to drop. I caught the other team at about the 9th control so we ended up in 2nd place overall.
