West Point, middle distance at Lake Popolopen, M35 Red (4.3 km, 430 m). Lost a few moments on #1 because it clearly wasn't on the feature that the cluesheet mentioned (no boulder), and I was thinking, man, they sure put two controls close together, because the boulder should be right... um... wtf... head back to look at the one on the breadbox-sized rock, and it was mine. But the big time loss was on #3, where I just completely blew the route and went through the middle of the green swamp, which cost me a bunch of minutes (I also was certain where I was when I popped out on the other side). Add in being old and slow and the bottom line was a pretty pathetic result.

West Point sprint at Camp Buckner, M35 Red (2.8 km, 70m). Fishhooked #2, hesitated on #4 tring to decide whether to go down through the green (I decided to go all the way around on the pavement), went around teh tennis courts on #6 because I couldn't tell whether there was a mapped opening on the far end, my route choice on #10 might have been a few seconds slow (past the Reg building), and on #11 I stood still for what seemed like forever looking around for the damn pit that I was practically on top of. Another slow and pathetic run.
