orienteering competition race (middle COC) 29:09 ***** 2.25 km (12:58 / km)
ahr:140 max:183 spiked:6/11c shoes: Ice Bugs
very complicated terrain. Started off slowly, but, thanks to my pep talk from Mehgan, I did much better than expected. Did get disorientated at number 8 and lost about 3 minutes. Fantastic area!

orienteering competition race (long COC) 57:15 **** 5.76 km (9:56 / km)
ahr:154 max:181 shoes: Ice Bugs
Quite difficult in the sand dunes. Was going well until #8, when I think I made a parallel error and got totally turned around. Finally relocated to the trail to the east but even then didn't find the control easily. And it shouldn't have been a hard control! Then ran the trail to the next control - possibly a good decision as a lot of people had trouble with it. lost 8-9 minutes on #8. Still finished as top Canadian - but a bit embarrassing as Ellen from Alaska was 9 minutes faster!
Had some dubious route choices earlier.
My time was 57:08

30 s error at #1 and #10 and minor blip at #5, but on the whole a good fast forest race.

orienteering competition race (sprint WCOC) 18:59 *** 2.4 km (7:55 / km) +33m 7:24 / km
ahr:155 max:186 spiked:8/10c shoes: Brooks
Mostly forest, with one critical leg that was faster to go to the street to the north (leg 7/8) Was going ok until #3, when everything just didn't make sense. As I finally relocated, got #3 at the same time as Magali who had started 2 minutes behind me... however, did manage to get back 1 minute at 7/8. Finished 3rd in W45.

hiking (Grey Mountain ridge) 1:00:00 [1] 5.0 mi (12:00 / mi) +200m 10:40 / mi
shoes: Brooks
Drove to the end of the road which is close to the top of Grey Mountain and then walked along the ridge for a couple of hours. Really interesting hike, with great views over Whitehorse and beyond. For the most part, the rain avoided us.
