US Middle distance Championships. Very pleased with the race. A couple of controls I had small mistakes I can blame on loosing concentration due to tiredness and lack of race experience this year.
The terrain an map was nice, except the "barbed wire" vines that scratched with razor sharp thorns. Lots of bare rock which was the best routes and fastest running.

Middle - Green X - Splits

US Championships Long distance at Chattahoochee Bend state Park in Georgia. Had an OK race, but too much running for my taste. Long legs with trail running or compass in bland areas with no details. Only control mistake was C11, a root stock in a totally flat area with not much to relocate on.

Event: US Individual Championships (Sprint/Middle/Long/Trail)
 

US Sprint Championship on U of West Georgia campus in Carrollton.
Fun sprint on a nice campus. Nice mix of buildings, walkways, and lawns or treed areas. I am vey pleased with the race. Only some small hesitation on the first half, and running good. Took left route on the long leg after spectator control and got tired in the hilly section, but pushed to the end.
