Mountain biking with Courtney, James, Wakana, Anna and her friend Ashley. Meandering climb up with some nice views - some double track climbs which surprised me given the terrain should lend itself to having singletrack climbing trails. Descended the Boogaloo trails which were fun. Very nice evening with perfect temperature and clear skies.

NAOC long M35 on the Croucher Creek map. Solid run - perhaps the first race I can remember where I had no major mistakes? My route to 1 could have been better and I lost a minute between 6-7 when someone asked me to show them where they were (it was a kid who was off his map so he needed some direction to get back to his map). Otherwise was very deliberate - especially on the technical sections towards the end. Only had two top 3 splits but still finished third overall. A lot of legs following a bearing and counting features (and there were a couple areas with complicated negative topography with no handrails or catching features). Ran most of the second half with another runner - we seemed to be doing our own things between controls but kept coming together at the flag. Running speed was fine - I spent little time on roads or trails which helped as my forest running is OK but my road speed is poor. Thought the white sections of forest were thicker than I expected a number of times.
