Orienteering race 56:58 [4] 9.71 km (5:52 / km) +259m 5:11 / km
Deschutes Day 3 - Blown away by the amazing terrain here!
Route
I thought the race went pretty well, but it wasn't a horribly difficult course meaning the faster runners got away with much better times (except Boris who just out navigated me).
Probably could've pushed harder, but it would've been uncomfortable for the upcoming days and US nationals so I kept it to a comfortable hard pace.
As for navigation I was impressed by how interesting the terrain was. The section around 3-6 was definitely the most technical, but despite how visible the rest of the course was it was actually kind of tricky with all the crazy detail and variation.
I didn't make too many technical mistakes, number 11 I didn't adjust enough for the downhill and got dragged right past the control. Number 13 I just misread the contours and other than that it was pretty clean.
Overall another solid day of beautiful orienteering on a great map and great course!
