Running warm up/down 10:00 [3]
Orienteering race (Sprint) 17:38 [5] 2.9 km (6:05 / km)
Overall pretty poor race on my part (lots of bad routes because I couldn't read the detail fast enough).
Siri and I also had an adventure on number 7 so that didn't help either.
I must say that the map was fantastic! Really complicated multilevel structures, walls and passageways was super good at keeping me on my toes.
I really enjoyed it!

Running warm up/down 5:00 [3]
Orienteering race 19:00 [5] 3.0 km (6:20 / km)
I had so much fun with this! Not as many problems with running into traps or choosing bad routes and thankfully Greg had the tougher forks so that kept him from running away early on.
Running with Jordan and Greg really worked in wiping my legs out before heading home and overall it was an awesome speedy relay through parts of the same really cool sprint area and other parts of the campus that were almost equally interesting.

Orienteering race 43:05 [5] 4.1 km (10:30 / km)
Route
Pretty sure I can count the number of controls I did well on one hand. I didn't let that get to my head, however, and ended up with a great result! despite not being happy with the race.

Running warm up/down 15:00 [3]
Orienteering race (Sprint) 14:28 [5] 2.9 km (4:59 / km)
Route
I do love me some good ol' sprints! This map was pretty darn cool. Too many mistakes on my part for a sprint course but my speed carried me pretty far, but not even close to Adam's much cleaner time.
Running warm up/down 10:00 [3]
Orienteering race (Sprint) 15:26 [5] 2.8 km (5:31 / km)
Route
This course was super easy so even I could avoid making mistakes :)
Kicked butt and beat Adam by an entire 1 second. Not letting him get me this time!
It's really cool to see how tight the competition is here and how it will be even more tight at US champs! Looking forward to it.

Running warm up/down 25:54 [3] 3.22 km (8:03 / km) +94m 7:01 / km
Orienteering race 56:58 [4] 9.71 km (5:52 / km) +259m 5:11 / km
Route
I thought the race went pretty well, but it wasn't a horribly difficult course meaning the faster runners got away with much better times (except Boris who just out navigated me).
Probably could've pushed harder, but it would've been uncomfortable for the upcoming days and US nationals so I kept it to a comfortable hard pace.
As for navigation I was impressed by how interesting the terrain was. The section around 3-6 was definitely the most technical, but despite how visible the rest of the course was it was actually kind of tricky with all the crazy detail and variation.
I didn't make too many technical mistakes, number 11 I didn't adjust enough for the downhill and got dragged right past the control. Number 13 I just misread the contours and other than that it was pretty clean.
Overall another solid day of beautiful orienteering on a great map and great course!
