Event: ROC - Score-O & Sprint
Orienteering race 1:03:00 [5] 8.0 km (7:53 / km)
Score-O at Black Creek. Nice event, well run, well attended.
Started at a nice pace and grabbed first 8 controls in 21 minutes.
At this point I blundered (the first of several rookie mistakes) and tried to take a short cut from #10 through a sliver of runnable woods to #2. Missed the narrow band on the map and ended up slogging through another swamp and some aptly colored green! Finally ended up on a recognizable trail near #7 at 10:29, so I lost 8 minutes on that little foray. Went back up the left side of the big swamp and inexplicably went after #2 and #3, before heading to #19 (I should have skipped the 1 point controls entirely) then looping N aroung the swamp to get 9-18-20-21.
At this point I realized that I was WAAAAY too far from home with very little time remaining to get there. Picked up #6 and #4 since they were right on the trail, but had to run by #22, #7,#1, and #16 all of which should have been easy points.
Made it back 3 minutes over deadline for a net 30 points (42 less 12 point penalty)
Moral of the story - GREEN = BAD
Final route: 12-11-13-14-15-8-23-10-2-3-19-9-18-20-21-6-4-finish
