Setting six controls for the morning's shadowing exercise.

Two control setting sessions (distance is a guess):
1. Moving six controls from the following exercise to new locations on the control picking exercise.

2. Setting four controls for the 3 PM route choice exercise, then running to the track to see the kids running the 3 km time trial. Unfortunately, the track was just off my map, and I didn't realize there were two adjacent tracks. The kids were at the more distant track, so I ran back to the lodge without seeing anyone.

Training session: the control picking exercise. I started 1:00 before Ethan, and 2:00 before Ross. I had set six of the 21 controls, one of which (11) I made a twenty second error on. I passed Carl around control 13, and was then caught by Ross at 15. He and I then proceeded to make a 60-90 second error at sixteen, despite the fact that the flag was visible from 15. It was nevertheless a good exercise; I know Big E finished in 28 minutes and change.

Setting three controls for the 3 PM route choice exercise, and picking up twelve controls from the control picking exercise. I was quite tired at the end.
