Not the best warm-up/cooldown for the Sprint, and a short warmup for the Middle

Solid effort on a forest/field sprint after a week of rest netted a 2nd-place-US in the Sprint O' champs. Quite happy with that result.
Caught some USMA traffic and battled one USMA guy & Maricel for a bit, pushing past them, then had Erin (after a mistake) catch me and we went back and forth a bit with him clearly faster and me navigating more confidently. As Erin continues to get more solid in his navigation he could easily top the US charts...

A reasonable run at the middle distance non-champs event. Could've been a bit cleaner. Fell hard at one point after locking my R-knee on a downhill. After a scary few moments of a numb R-leg, it recovered over the next minute or two so I could complete the race (although much more tentatively on the downhills...)
