Orienteering race (Pacheco Pass) 1:57:30 [5] *** 16.54 km (7:06 / km) +779m 5:45 / km
17c shoes: Icebug Spirit2 OLX
Edit: RouteGadget link, with analysis
A route-choice heavy Ultralong Championship course at O' in the Oaks 2013, Pacheco Pass. Almost every single leg in the entire course had several distinct route-choice options.
My strategy at the mass start was to take the first few controls steadily, at my own pace, and not let other people influence my route choices. It worked pretty well, and from control #5 onwards, I lost sight of the other people on my course and could run my own race.
The well-designed courses had a lot of really interesting route choice options, and I will post a RouteGadget link with some analysis as soon as it is available.

Orienteering race (Pacheco Pass) 30:14 [4] *** 4.25 km (7:07 / km) +295m 5:17 / km

Middle distance at O' in the Oaks 2013, Pacheco Pass. I got the climb statistic by counting contours; the climb my Garmin gave me didn't make any sense.
This was one of my cleanest Middle distance races ever; I made just one 40 second mistake at control #4. The courses were short but very steep; most of the technical challenge came from carefully reading contours and determining the relative heights of features on slopes.
