Green course at Pohick Bay. It was really fun, and there were some nice long legs on the course, but I was pretty sloppy inside the control circle. I kept bobbling controls, I think because I just got there and expected to see the control right away. Also, I wasn't really paying close attention to the features inside the control circle, so lots of times I'd run across something distinctive and then have to look back at the map to find what it was. I'd be faster if I read ahead and planned more, and could anticipate what was going to come up on the map.

Ran the yellow course fast with my dad after the green. It was pretty easy navigation, but again, I found myself not reading ahead/not planning ahead as much as I could have, and I actually did make some minor mistakes. Well, it'll just be something else to work on!
