Day 2 Green Course at Anza-Borrego. A few mistakes, one annoying one costing a few minutes. I probably ran right past the control, within sight of it, but was so convinced that it would be to my right that I didn't even look to the left. When I was sure I had gone too far without finding it, I relocated to a major feature to reattack. Still, overall better than yesterday.

Maze-O at Anza-Borrego. I walked leisurely through the course with Harvey. Got 6 of 8 controls. Not really a physical workout, but still a great technical one.

Green Course at Anza-Borrego. Had one very significant error. Lost about 18 minutes by going too far, heading down the wrong spur, and then having difficulty getting back on track because cliffs blocked the way to what otherwise would have been the best way to get relocated and on track. Instead I had to flounder my way back toward the control through detailed terrain that I was having difficulty getting cleanly relocated in.

Sprint at Anza-Borrego. I had a really great race. Started off feeling a little fatigued from the morning race, but eventually felt better and managed to push reasonably through the ending uphill. Lots of good, clean navigation.
