Orienteering race 33:24 *** 3.64 km (9:11 / km) +107m 8:00 / km
ahr:137 max:160 spiked:10/14c shoes: VJ Falcons 4 (yellow)
Middle distance at Little Truckee Summit. Generally open woods but lots of junk underfoot to slow things down and enough low growth to make it hard to see some of the boulders. And a few dubious "distinct" trees. Course had a few doglegs and shared several legs with Brown, so there were opportunities to be "helped", or not. Two bad controls plus a couple of others where I was off line but managed to spot the flag. Lost at least 6 minutes overall. In spite of the errors, ended up 1st in M60. Straightline distance 3.0 km.

Orienteering race 14:58 *** 2.12 km (7:03 / km) +12m 6:51 / km
ahr:141 max:150 spiked:15/17c shoes: VJ Falcons 4 (yellow)
Sprint at Donner Memorial SP. A forest sprint in generally wide open woods bouncing from big boulder to big boulder. Very fast but minimal route choice. One big mistake (~ 1 min) by misreading a control description and looking on the wrong side of a boulder and then spending way too much time looking for another 4m boulder which might have a flag on it. Turns out the flag was on the side I was approaching from but obscured by vegetation. Also had a couple of 5 - 10 second losses due to being off line. Straight line distance 1.9 km. Third in M60.
6 PM
Orienteering 40:52 *** 4.22 km (9:42 / km) +62m 9:02 / km
ahr:126 max:145 spiked:7/11c shoes: VJ Falcons 4 (yellow)
Motala at Burton Creek. Did two of the four loops walking and jogging. Some sloppy orientering, especially for the pace I was going.

Event: Sierra Summerfest

Orienteering race 1:08:51 *** 6.36 km (10:50 / km) +333m 8:35 / km
ahr:136 max:156 spiked:12/13c shoes: VJ Falcons 4 (yellow)
Score-O at Spooner Lake, first event of Sierra Summerfest. Lots of opportunity for climb. Planned a route with only one significant climb so as to not beat myself up too badly with three A-meet races coming up. Unfortunately added a bonus climb of about 6-7 contours on one leg. Otherwise hit all of the controls pretty well. Finished well under the 90 minute time limit, as planned. Overcast with some sprinkles and occasional thunder. Control order: 112-101-100-106-115-107-110-105-111-104-103-102-109 for a total of 185 points (max 340 possible).
