Orienteering race 19:51 [4] *** 3.4 km (5:50 / km) +25m 5:38 / km

DVOA Independence Day Sprint 1 at Ridley Creek. Had to get up at 4:45 to catch LIRR–>NJ Transit–>SEPTA, then be picked up by Wyatt and theDabbler, as no NYC Russians had interest in going.

The race went well; I only had one large mistake, at Control 4, and recovered promptly (others weren't so lucky). No route-choice errors, and I think the 33 points were exactly what my training deserves at this time.

I thought I had a perfect run at the 2nd Sprint, except for The Yelling Man Incident, but then, three days later, I looked at the splits and realized to my horror how wrong I was with my route choice to Control 4. I did have a good run until then; a rare lead.

Orienteering race 27:37 [4] ** 4.1 km (6:44 / km) +50m 6:21 / km

The third Sprint was disappointing... the map was questionable, but then I am the Master of Saylor Park, i.e. multiple streams of conflicting information, so should have figured it out. Caught by Joe at Control 6, 5 minutes; could not quite keep up.
