NAOC sprint! I was actually very nervous for this race since the last sprint I did was at JWOC, and it went very poorly. The cemetery confused me a little on the first leg, but but overall the first half of the course went really well. As I went through the arena, the announcers said I was tied for first with Siri (incorrect, it was actually Julia) which made me really try push for the last loop. By that point I was very tired, my flow was essentially gone, and I made a pretty sizable mistake on 18. Finished the race and pushed to the end, knowing that I was really close to Siri (actually Julia). Very happy with how this race went!

Sprint relay. I was the final leg, which I'm not used to running, but it was fine. I was very tired from the morning's sprint, and I went out at the same time as Pia, vying for the top junior spot, which pushed me more than I think I would have gone if we weren't close to each other. I only saw her at the beginning, but I wasn't sure if we had different forkings or not. We won the relay!

Sprint - Green Z (WRE) - Splits

Overall a pretty good race for me. I kept contact with the map really well the whole time, and only had one mistake from losing contact. A couple more little mistakes along the way, but nothing too bad.

Long - Green Z (WRE) - Splits

Event: North American Orienteering Championships 2016
 

Good race for me! I didn't go into this with much confidence because I haven't been orienteering much since this summer, but I felt really good on this course.

Middle - Green Z - Splits

Intramural volleyball game, but the other team was a no-show so we ended up splitting and playing ourselves instead. Team potatoes for the win!

Running to our practice field... We actually beat the vans with our stuff there. Boston traffic at 6pm is not pleasant!

Practice... stretching after the run there, 3v2, 1v1, shooting, and free kicks

Soccer team run around town... Over to Cambridge on the Harvard bridge, then back via the BU bridge
