Advanced shortcourse (Hughes design)pretty easy navigation). Decent run but not quite clean because after CP10 I somehow decided I was at 11 and started off to the finish. Terrain didn't match map, but it took almost until I reached the road (~100m) before I accepted the error. No real navigation problems, but more hesitation and indecision along the way that I should have on my home turf. Good visibility and a really beautiful day.

First Epunch course for NEOOC! Bob set 10 controls and made 4 courses around the picnic area to introduce the club to epunch. I only did one since maps were a limiting factor. Doing such a microcourse really emphasized concentration and quick transitions, so i think it was actually good training.

Did the orange course to get some more time in. Many of the controls were the same, and i'd passed through these areas earlier, so it was easy to go very fast, knowing exactly where I was going. Very educational to do that - this must be what it's like for Stan and the others in a normal run, knowing just where they are, where they will be. I should do this more often.
Much faster than i expected to go.
