To the start.

NAOC Long on Carp Ridge - Hidden Meadow Farm map. Course 7b (M55). 5.2km SL, 120m climb. Same terrain as the middle in the north half of the map and then a complex trail network in the south. The course was way short for a "long" and had lots of trail running.

Another mediocre run. Blew the route choice on the first long leg (2-3), fighting through medium green to the west of the pond immediately south of #2 which cost 2 or 3 minutes. Executed 6-7 poorly and ended up going through green and marsh rather than getting to the trail asap. Another 2 minutes. A few other 1 minute losses each on 2 and 8, so could've been about 7 minutes faster. Did well on the 4-5 and 8-9 legs, so need to be more consistent. Was 11th overall on the course, 7th North American.

Run/jog/walk to start plus some time on the warm-up map.

NAOC Middle on Carp Ridge North map - Course 7b (M55). 3.7km SL, 65m climb. Subtle contours, visibility variable, a little junky underfoot. Good course, very challenging.

Meh. No huge errors, a couple of 3-4 minute ones, lots of small ones. FR battery was low so I had to be "WRE-compliant" (pretty sure I know where I went, just can't verify).

Event: NAOC2014 (North American Champs/Ottawa O-Fest)
 

NAOC Model Event at Carp Ecowellness center. Upper 40's and partly cloudy. Walked, jogged and ran a bit around in the woods (collecting burrs and finding some flags). Subtle contours, uneven and a little junky underfoot, enough leaves still on the trees to affect visibility - should be a good test.

A run around the block.

Yoga stretching warm-up felt pretty good.
