Race Evaluation
UNO College Woods: Red

| 1. | Never seen that control description before. But the location is clear, so just go to the circle. | ||||||
| 2. | Here's where I really started to regret using the compass I got in Hawaii. I thought I had left my O-compass at the Franklin Park meet. This one took a few seconds to settle. Plan - blast S. I drifted E. and ended up at the buildings, disorienting me a bit. Straight after bridge. | ||||||
| 3. | A little bobble due to straying to the right and hitting the trail. | ||||||
| 4. | Strayed to the left this time. | ||||||
| 5. | Chose to go left around the little hill, shoulda gone right, avoiding green. | ||||||
| 6. | Straight. | ||||||
| 7. | Strayed a bit to the left, hitting similar-looking features to the SE, costing some time. | ||||||
| 8. | |||||||
| 9. | Chose to take trails as far as I could. | ||||||
| 10. | |||||||
| 11. | Thinking was a bit fuzzy. I selected to follow stone wall until next trail then blast east, but instead I blasted E after the ridge, got confused when I hit the trail (thought it was the one with the control). Had to slog up and over from the wrong tree trunk . | ||||||
| 12. | pretty much straight. found some nice running on unmapped trails | ||||||
| 13. | Big bobble. Strayed way left and looked for control in wrong place. | ||||||
| 14. | |||||||
| 15. | trails | ||||||
| 16. | Thought there was a chance of using the stone wall. But too thick. Took little trail W until saw cliffs to N and headed in. | ||||||
| 17. | |||||||
| 18. | Misread contours near control location and drifted too low, looking for a marked reentrant. Overshot, heard Alar up high, looked, saw control. | ||||||
| 19. | Actually punched in with Alar at this one. | ||||||
| 20. | Unusually for me, I was able to keep up a good enough pace that I had Alar in sight for a couple of minutes. | ||||||
| 21. | To stone wall junction, then into thick stuff (seeing jj pause behind me and not follow), finding a little trail just beyond. Emerge to find JJ with Jon Hansman hot on his heels. Punch in right after them. | ||||||
| F. | This time, was not able to catch up, jogged in. No cramps, still felt good. Yay. |
