spiked:12/13c
Sprint Qualifier at Macquarie Uni- made it into A final without too much bother. Interesting race- spent about 1 min looking for start box- there was none! Next time read instructions carefully!! Not as clean a run as yesterday with 2:30 in errors would put me up in top 5 - finihsed 17th in heat without really opening up the throttle. Goal for tomorrow is to finish in at least top 15-20.

Orienteering (sprint) 14:55 *** 2.5 km (5:58 / km)
spiked:15/17c
Really nice sprint area Callan Park at Rozelle- weather lousy though. Had a very good sprint warm up run- maybe 20sec of /hesitation on 2 controls. Ran controlled! (even so when I left had fastest time by a bit)- so augurs well for tomorrow if I can replicate.

Orienteering (Mt Ainslie day 2) 46:20 *** 6.5 km (7:08 / km) +145m 6:25 / km
spiked:12/14c slept:5.0
Tired and not sleeping well- Cold/rainy day and started ahead of scheduled time- so didnt really focus on start. The good news- speed is good and recovered from error well. The bad...Messed up first control (5:30) which in this fast terrain was punished by droping about 12 places ( would have been 4th otherwise)- after that decent run although mistakenly headed north out of control 5 thinking I was going to 7- about 1:30 before I realized. Anyhow satisfactory tune up- will rest up to get ready for Sydney sprints.
Nice to meet several of the North American contingent in Canberra.

Aussie Boulder Dash at Honeysuckle creek. Course 2A. Tough area with deafall and unmapped green from bush fire .Meseed up second control with 4 min error- otherwise a steady run with about 2-3 minutes due to route choice. Finished 12/62 and first of NA's and 7 min off 1st place- mixed age groups so hard to know who was M55. Anyhow reasonable tune up.
