Orienteering race 1:18:00 [3] **** 9.9 km (7:53 / km) +360m 6:40 / km
shoes: VJ Spikes
Pig Classic.
Ok race. Intended to take it a little easy, but be clean. Unfortunately, blew 4 minutes on first control. Much of the rest of the course I kept thinking about it, convinced that something was not right about the control.
Most of course an easy level 3 effort. About 2 minutes of additional problems?

Orienteering warm up/down 25:00 [1] *** 2.2 mi (11:22 / mi)
shoes: VJ Spikes
(Includes warmup.)
Went back ou to check #1. I think control was in the right place, but the map is not correct there. The contours are a bit off. I would not have put a control there -- not based on arm chair setting and definitely not after a site visit.
But, most people (and me too) should have had no problem with the control. But because I did, I'm still annoyed at it.

Run 40:00 [1] 4.0 mi (10:00 / mi)
shoes: VJ Spikes
20 minute warmup before sprint, cool down, plus warmup/down after relay.
Run race 15:58 [5] **** 2.9 km (5:30 / km) +100m 4:42 / km
shoes: VJ Spikes
Pig Sprint.
An OK-good race. It seemed at most competent when I was running it; relative results better than I expected. Bobbled 1 and 3, but generally methodical after that. Plus side was that I pushed hard; downside was that same speed would have felt easier last fall.

Orienteering race 48:00 [4] **** 6.5 km (7:23 / km) +270m 6:07 / km

Pig relay.
Good race. Pushed well throughout a pretty tough course. Missed some tweaks to my route choices that would have saved ~30 secs a couple of times. Also, hard to generate speed. After clambering up the hills took a while to get legs and head in gear.
A few other small bobbles, but pleased with performance.

Event: Flying Pig X (OCIN)
Run warm up/down 10:00 [1] 1.6 km (6:15 / km)
shoes: VJ Spikes
warmup
Orienteering race 40:30 [4] **** 5.4 km (7:30 / km) +250m 6:05 / km
shoes: VJ Spikes
Pig middle. Mediocre race. 2/3 of the controls were good and 1/3 were bad. Different problems, including poor bearings, control circle problems, poor route choice, etc...
Oddly enough, control circle problem on 5 foreshadowed problem to occur on control 1 on classic.
