Orienteering race 2:27:56 [5] ***** 8.5 km (17:24 / km) +984ft 14:48 / km
spiked:15/17c shoes: VJ Inegrators
A bad run, actually one bad mistake. One of those two controls I didn't spike cost me over 20 minutes!!
I navigated to the control circle perfectly, I was even inside the control circle, but just missed seeing the control flag. So, instead of starting to search for the flag, I began to try to relocate, and relocating in Harriman is no easy feat. That was my mistake, I should have stayed put because I knew I was in the correct place. Instead I walked about and ended up right back where I started, at which point I found the marker. Aaarrrggghhhh!!!
After that I had little energy to carry me through the rest of the course.
