Did not read control code Did not read control description Lacked confidence Hesitated Unused to map Unused to terrain +01:00 | Started off slow, trying to get used to map, took longer than I wanted to choose attack point and route, but once I found the trail I was fine. | |||||
| 2. |
No attack point Did not check features en route Bad compass work Did not read control code Did not read control description Disturbed by others Unused to map Unused to terrain +01:00 | Used Control 1 as attack point. Shot an azimuth and measured distance then turned my brain off. I saw another orienteer and maybe got distracted. Drifted left, but was able to relocate based on good measuring. Precision map reading helped relocate. | |||||
| 3. |
Bad compass work Did not read control code Did not read control description Lacked confidence +02:00 | It took me a while to reach the main trail to the south, I should have ran faster here. I chose to remain on the trail all the way to the final intersection (AP) north of the control. I thought about the overland route, but did not have the confidence to try it. In the end I dont think i lost much time here, but from the attack point I drifted left again but was save by distance estimation. | |||||

Did not check features en route Read map too late Bad compass work Did not read control code Did not read control description +00:30 | Drifted left, but able to relocate quickly, again saved by distance est. | |||||
| 5. |
No attack point Did not follow plan Took a chance Did not read control code Did not read control description +00:45 | Originally planned to skirt around the swamp, but the swamp was dry. Basically windowed to other side and saw the boulder before the control. Started this plan too late, overall not bad orienteering. | |||||
| 6. |
Ran too fast Bad compass work Did not read control code Did not read control description Not thinking clearly Lacked concentration +02:00 | First mental error - 180 out of control. Trying to do too much too quick, luckily caught myself running the wrong way on the trail before major time loss. From attack point to control was not clean, again left drift. | |||||
| 7. |
Ran too fast Bad map reading Bad compass work Confused parallel features Did not read control code Did not read control description Not thinking clearly Lacked concentration Frustrated +04:00 | Another mental error, dialed compass incorrectly again, trouble relocating and trouble reading precision map features. | |||||

No attack point Bad route choice Did not plan ahead Did not follow plan Did not check features en route Took a chance Read map too late Bad map reading Bad compass work Did not read control code Did not read control description Could not relocate Not thinking clearly Lacked concentration Frustrated Disturbed by others Followed others +03:00 | With everything going wrong on this point it is a miracle that I ever found it. I had zero concentration, a bad plan, and then didn't follow that bad plan. I got lucky, but lost considerable time first. | |||||

Did not plan ahead Bad map reading Bad distance judgement Did not read control code Did not read control description Hesitated +01:00 | Not bad, started off slow from 8 to the trail, ran well on trail, but was slow from AP to circle, hesitated and did not have good distance. | |||||
| 10. |
Read map too late Bad map reading Did not read control code Did not read control description +00:30 | Got to circle quickly, but then was slow reading the map to finally find the control | |||||

Read map too late Bad compass work Did not read control code Did not read control description Hesitated +01:00 | Drifted left again, relocated but after some hesitation. | |||||
| 12. |
Bad route choice Did not follow plan Read map too late Bad map reading Did not read control code Did not read control description Not thinking clearly Lacked concentration +03:00 | Got ahead of myself and drifted far right. Was able to relocate, but wasted lots of time. Good precision map close to circle though. | |||||
| 13. |
Ran too fast Bad distance judgement Did not read control code Did not read control description Disturbed by others Followed others +02:00 | Ran well until last 150 meters. Was distracted by a runner near the punching out of the control and followed briefly till I realized I had ran too far. A better distance estimation would have prevented that. | |||||
| 14. |
Bad route choice Bad compass work Confused parallel features Bad distance judgement Did not read control code Did not read control description +03:00 | Bad route choice, should have got on trail earlier, did not estimate distance and confused one clearing for another. | |||||

Did not read control code Did not read control description Hesitated +00:30 | Compass work was dead on, but was slow and hesitated some. Slow on last 100m | |||||

Bad route choice Did not plan ahead Read map too late Did not read control code Did not read control description Not thinking clearly Lacked concentration +01:00 | Became "trail locked" and wasted some time. | |||||
| 17. |
Bad route choice Read map too late Did not read control code Did not read control description Not thinking clearly Followed others +01:00 | Went through fields, probably a slow route choice, ran trail well, but read map too late and ended up in a group of about 4 runners to the control | |||||

Did not plan ahead Read map too late Did not read control code Did not read control description Followed others | Still in group, but lost contact with map trying to keep up. Short leg so it worked out. | |||||
| 19. |
Ran too fast Read map too late Bad map reading Confused parallel features Did not read control code Did not read control description Tired Disturbed by others Followed others +02:00 | Took the trail, lost contact with map while running fast and overran one trail junction, corrected and then ran will until the extensive trail network began and was slow in the last 200 meters. | |||||
| 20. |
Bad route choice Did not follow plan Did not read control code Did not read control description Disturbed by others Followed others +02:00 | Did not stick to my plan, should have shot an azimuth and avoided getting confused by the trails. Got distracted by another runner and ran to the wrong point. Relocated, but lost time. | |||||
