Orienteering race (Long Brown) 1:01:20 [5] 4.9 km (12:31 / km)
slept:8.0 weight:123lbs shoes: OROC 340
Ran the Long Brown at NAOC...... good day again.... but once again had a slow shaky start on the way to #1......but then had a good run and finished 8th in A.G. ..... once again felt in control and was sure where I was at all times.....had good plans on all routes.....just love that blind Woodchuck !!!! legs were dead at the end of run......was just down to a slow jog on the long leg to 13...even with most of it on a road....need to work harder on running in the woods next yr.....
Note: need to figure out how to get a better start and run to No. 1 .... had slow and shaky starts on all three days....have trouble finding the start on map and then thinking ahead on how to get to the first control.....my splits are alot slower then the rest of the runners.....this cost me at least 2 min. on each course.....once I get in the flow I was ok.... may try to put some maps on the ground in the woods somewhere and try to pick one up and find the start and make a plan while I am running in the Dir. of the first control on that map.....need to fix this issue....
