Orienteering 1:08:30 [3] 5.91 km (11:35 / km)
ahr:153 max:175 shoes: inov8 x-talon 190
NAOC2014 M45+ middle - course 7a
bad start with a warmup map that I could not figure out where I was, but it helped identify the type of map I would be looking at.
felt good until #7 - 300m into woods and missed the mark had to come back out to the powerline cut to reorient. Found the stream and followed it up to the control. The stream was not very distinct in parts, fanning out into a wide hilly marsh.
I had a reasonable finish with the last 6 controls or so. running neck and neck with 2 other o'ers. I beat them on several - small errors were going back an forth. I chickened out on my approach to the go control and took the trails. I should have run straight at the control - only 100m

8.26 on a 5.4km Green - 153% :(
This was not the confidence builder I was hoping for going into next weekend.
I had some good legs but I botched a few also. Surprisingly, the buildings threw me off.
My two worst orienteering moments were going to #7 and realizing (even after verifying compass bearing) that I took the wrong trail for over 100m and #12 when I came out of a ravine, got turned around and was standing next to the bathroom building for 30 seconds trying to figure out where I was.
