running warm up/down 9:22 [2] 1.01 mi (9:17 / mi) +23m 8:40 / mi
shoes: Salomon Speedcross

cross training warm up/down 10:00 [3]

orienteering race 1:52:18 [3] 11.65 km (9:38 / km) +180m 8:57 / km
shoes: Salomon Speedcross

Sand Spring red course. An ehh race, clean except for 3 controls with costly mistakes.
Control 1: Decided to rough compass/rough map it to the control instead of precise compassing from catching feature to catching feature (something that would have been a much better idea in this terrain/vegetation). ~15 minute mistake *cringes*
Control 5: Lotta people had trouble on this one. I had the right idea with using my compass, the issue was a parallel error on a similar rocky spur. Had a cool head the whole time, and didn't get half as turned around as most everyone else, but, again, I need to be more careful with compass/attackpoints. ~6 minute mistake
Control 8: Went in without a clear attackpoint. Ended up dropping too much and came across the open forest w/ distinct vegetation boundary by chance. ~4 min mistake
Made a few smaller mistakes throughout, need to focus on getting smoother and cleaning up my navigation.
(*Note: 7.9 km course)

orienteering 2:20:00 [2] 5.7 km (24:34 / km) +100m 22:35 / km
shoes: Salomon Speedcross

Course Setter class at DVOA, field checking exercise.

orienteering 1:14:30 [3] 5.6 km (13:18 / km) +105m 12:10 / km
shoes: Salomon Speedcross

Night-O, estimated distance because my watch turned off at one point. Awful performance on my part, spent 25 minutes trying to find the first control (which was in the middle of thick vegetation), and that screwed me over time wise for the rest of the way. Most of the other legs other than 5 and 8 went smoothly. My issue is that I hate using my compass, which is the most important tool in a Night-O, especially in a place like Hickory Run. At least I learned from this experience and had some fun.
(*Note: course distance was 3.1 km)

Course setting for today's practice at Bog Meadow. Starting pouring rain and thundering so practice, unbeknownst to David and me, was cancelled. Somehow finished setting (with maps quickly disintegrating), only to find that the team wasn't there... So we went back to Will's car only to find out we'd been locked out... Long story short, I didn't get back to post until after ESP began, but I got American Burrito so it was worth it.
