Orienteering race 41:18 4.7 km (8:47 / km) +250m 6:56 / km
ahr:171 max:181 shoes: La Sportiva Cross Lite
GLOF Middle.
Not a good race. Frantic and running too fast on the way to #1 - got confused when I ran past the ruin which I thought was meant to be a rockface.
Dropped at went wide on #5 when I needed to climb and go straight.
Then the whopper at #7. I decided to climb K2 (to claim the polka dot hat) and come off the track at the boulder in the gully and then use the following boulder as an attackpoint. Unfortunately I never saw either of them and lost total contact in a steep area of spaghetti contours. Others had trouble but I think I made the biggest meal of it.
No real problems in the 2nd loop, I finally calmed down and was flowing well in this easier section and spiked the potentially disastrous #15, (though then lost 30 secs on 16 not going far enough down the hill).
Lost about 8 minutes total, 5 of those on #7.
Positive was that I felt I was running strongly and had more to give at the end.
