Orienteering race 2:05:49 [3] *** 9.0 km (13:59 / km) +295m 12:01 / km
shoes: Nike Air for terrain running
Blue course at Hickory Run.
Great weather with light drizzling during the course. First 8 to 10 controls were kind of sprint/yellow type controls that favor runners. Next comes long legs in technical terrain.
Was doing nice until 15. I seem to have trouble in the area of 15 all the time. I remember from previous events, I had to bail out to the PA534 road to reattack. Same thing happened today. Next problem was with 19. Kind of distracted after crossing the stream. Next problem was 21. I thought I was at the right place where the control is supposed to be. Not found it and had to bail out towards PA 534 and reattack. Next control - I thought of taking road but then looked at the small paths and kind of made a parallel error taking northern path instead of southern. Only realized at the end of the path but it wasn't too bad.
It was great course and had A&W root beer afterwards
