Long O Champs - 3rd M50 - followed Steve Tarry from start to #1 (about 1 km away) - we both avoided straight line to avoid some climb. Surprised to see Walter Siegenthaler, Penny DeMoss, Jeff Saeger, etc. at #7. Got to #8 about the same time. Should have trusted compass bearing to #10, but floated left to wrong hill. Jeff blew the competition to win M50. Walt was 2nd. Finally a good run for the week. on 2 maps: Telephone Song & Permian Sins.
Afterwards drove to Denver for EMS conference.

Twin Boulders: good start to #1, then skipped #2 by mistake. Leaving 1 to top of hill saw #3 in the distance and immediately thoguht I was leaving #2. Rest of course wasn't too bad. Happy about the run except for missing #2. Focusing is not a strong asset this week. Total of 9 controls for course.

Bisbee Hill - Good first 6 legs, no good attack point to #7 - almost quit - 19 min to #7 (15 min wasted - no thought of bailing out to relocate) - brain on vacation mode? No clean runs so far all week.

Chase (Pelican Bay) - not best route to #1, wasted 7-8 min at #3, almost quit. Bad route choice to #5, lost time. From #8 on - walked a lot - main goal to finish. Some "sprint" (8.5 km)! Raining before start, then stopped.

Night O Champs (Jubal E Spring) - 6th M50. blew #3 (found other marker - extra 300m) and #6 (lost lots of time - extra 400-500 m 5-8 min?). Silva headlamp was cool! After thunder storms & lots of lightning in afternoon, windy but dry night for O'run. Certainly want to try this night stuff again. Cautious to #1. Took photos at finish afterwards.

Wyoming 1000 Days - Stampede. 15 min (leg 1), 15 min (leg 2), 44 min (leg 3). Wondered how I'd react to altitude. Tough, but didn't boom like previous trips to the high country. Rest of week hopefully won't be a disaster. Got sun burned (back of neck).
