Race Evaluation

Canadian Orienteering Championships: Sprint Course 5.

1.							I think everyone ran straight N round green, round the no-go and down the hil. Of course, in hindsight, proceeding past the no-go and down the road is likely faster.
2.							Heading to 2, I encountered Richard still seeking 1. Even at the time, I thought how much time could be lost conversing w/ him, apparently a significant amount during a sprint.
3.							I scrambled straight up the cliff NW of building and time tells me that was a decent route choice.
4.							I cut into SW shoulder of road through grass and I probably shouldn't have.
5.							Though I knew grass was tall, I chose N route and prob shan't have.
6.							W & S of building and faceplanted just before N/S road catching a groundhog hole.
7.							Wasn't sure what gray S of building would be so I took longer N route.
8.							E & S but then I drifted E towards wrong building.
9.							NE & S round building
10.
11.							From 10, other runner left E so I went W and we nearly had a head-on at the corner with control.
12.							I messed up the whole race when I overshot an entire building here.
13.							I ran past the green(s).
14.							I intentionally hugged boundary wall to lose those behind me.
15.							The long leg should have been a good one for me but time says that I was dropping. I guess the tank emptied early cause I never regained my placing.
16.
17.
18.
F.							So w/o talking to Richard and w/o messing leg 12, I could only have gained 5 places.
