U.S. Nationals Middle course at St. Patrick's Park. A couple of small mistakes, first on #7, I tried to cut the corner on the trail going in, but ended up running up the escarpment to the trail on top. Lost 40 seconds there. On #10 in the small reentrant, I didn't want to go south of it and miss it, so I aimed off to the north . . . way too far. I hit the reentrant, but it was filled with fallen logs and branches on the way down to the control. Turned out the straight line had good visibility. Lost a minute there. But I made one good decision, running to the right around the lake to #5, and arrived there at the same time as Dave Hunter who started ahead of me and went left. It was drizzling during my run, and I got pretty wet but kept my glasses on and they stayed clear.

Soubpone had a great run and was 1:20 ahead of me, and Steve T. just a minute behind. The three of us divided up the top splits pretty evenly.
