NAOC Sprint - Arnprior - F21-34A (Course 4)
Majorly fun urban sprint. I love the urban/campus type races and had been looking forward to this all year!
Body felt very tired and worn out, yet I was really fast (for me, anyway). No major mistakes, just a few steps down the wrong street once between 1 and 2 while still getting my bearings in the street grid. Going to 6 I intended to take the curved path to the control, but overshot that and cut in on the North side of the buildings. It was fun running down the empty streets lined with businesses and on the churches, schools, etc. And the end section in the park was very dynamic, bouncing around from control to control while trying to ignore all of the many other bags in the vicinity.
AND I got WRE points beyond the minimum that they give to pretty much everybody. Now ranked 1063rd in the world in Sprint. Hahaha.
