Orienteering race (UC Berkeley) 1:01:26 [4] *** 7.3 km (8:25 / km) +143m 7:40 / km
45c
This was a very long extended sprint on the UC Berkeley campus. There were plenty of legs with route choice and there were also some traps, as well as areas with multiple levels.
To number 2 I made a route choice error, not seeing that there was an opening in an uncrossable fence. Later, I made a small error in my approach to #7.
I was caught in a trap going to #9, thinking that the the control was on the lower level when it was actually on the upper. This cost me quite a bit of time.
I then had a clean race until I was on my way to control #26. In my head, I missed #26 and looked straight to #27. By the time I realized my mistake, I was well on my way to #27. The result was that I took a much longer route to #26 than I otherwise would have. The rest of the race was more or less clean.
Overall, my race was not bad, but I did make too many route choice errors, and map reading errors.
