North American Middle Championships near Cranbrook, BC - "Course 7" (M45).
Finally, a decent run! Beautiful woods to run thru, with some open areas. A very nice Middle course. I kept waiting for the big mistake, but it never came. I had a few smaller errors, but nothing too bad. The worst was probably the bad line I took (too far left) to the GO control. Probably cost me 25 seconds.
My compass picked up a new bubble at this altitude, so I didn't really trust it. That cost me some time in places, but overall it may have helped, because I had to read the map more carefully, so I saw some contour-based route options that I would normally have ignored in my rush to go straight.
The boys ran well, especially Luke who claimed the North American Championship against some solid M10 competition, and Zach was 3rd in a very competitive M14 class, with a couple of small errors.
