Orienteering race 1:37:31 [4] 6.98 km (13:58 / km) +235m 11:57 / km
shoes: Falcons
Sessions Woods retro - essentially same red course from A-meet in 2002. I was 23 minutes faster than in 2002, in spite of an incredibly sloppy run. Never got "comfortable" with map; Took off to fast and was mentally playing catch up nearly the whole time. Generally missed controls 10+ meters to right and left.
1: running too fast and missed badly
3: bashed through too much mtn laurel
7: weirdly, spent a lot of time running back and forth along the trial looking for a place to cross the stream; brain not working.... Punched just after Dean who started after me.
13: confused and somewhat lost for first 100 m out of 13. kept moving. reoriented where trail started to head east by some stone walls.
