Orienteering race 2:08:48 [3] ***** 5.0 km (25:46 / km) +120m 23:00 / km
shoes: Innovate 280
This course was really hard for me, and I made mistakes on nearly every control. I think my main problem was I just wasn't running the course carefully. I kept going from control to control, thinking that everything was just going to come into focus for me, that I would suddenly understand things, and not really paying attention to the course at all. Of course this focus never came and I made huge terrible mistakes. I was also kind of running the course at an orange-level, taking really long (and not even necessarily safer) routes on trails when I could have taken routes using contours and point features like boulders. Being an idiot was also pretty costly, because I came in last. And I know I can orienteer better.
