Some snapshots from the team trials
At the 5th control on the sprint, Fritz punched the control. Then he also punched the split button on his watch. I guess Fritz didn't trust the SI unit to give him splits.
Tom and Eddie discussing the middle distance course. Eddie impresses me. He runs fast and navigates well. But, he hasn't been orienteering very long and he doesn't train consistently.
Elephant Rocks State Park is worth a visit if you're orienteering near Hawn. Mary and I spent some time hiking around the park. In the snapshot, Mary took a picutre of some other visitors.
Despite being a bit heavier than I should be, I was able to squeeze through a narrow passage.
On the evening before the final races, Hillary and Ross arm wrestled while Eric looked on. Ross probably needs to do some strength training.
The U.S. WOC team and alternates gathered for a group photo after the selection was announced.
