FLYING PIG A-Meet / USA Long Distance Championships - Carter CAves State Park, Kentucky. - Green
What is there to say. This was one of the most miserable courses I have run/walked in a long time. I think the course setter has a love affair with briars as the first half of the course we spent a significant part in them. The second half was a trail run. The orienteering itself wasn't that hard. Only navigational error was to 1 when I veered off to the left. 6-7 took the lower route as fed up fighting briars, though sounds like higher route was quicker. Lost 1.5 mins looking for my magnifiyer after 6 (never found it!). 7-8 took north route when should have taken the road.
Not one of my more enjoyable orienteering days.
