Event: Hickory Run
11 AM
Orienteering race (Brown middle) 43:22 [4] *** 2.8 km (15:29 / km) +85m 13:27 / km
spiked:11/12c shoes: Jala Jukola Spider 6 #2
Nice course by Sandy F on Hickory Run "Shades of Death" map. For a map that's mostly medium green, she kept us in the mostly white woods in the north-central portion. Rhododendron thickets came into play between controls 2 and 3 but I used the rhody blobs and the contours to do the leg. Not very attentive on the stream crossing option 7-8 so I backtracked; then lost focus going to 10, stopped short, didn't check a control flag (again!) that was ahead of me (not mine anyway, but if I'd done that I would have relocated sooner), and wandered a bit south before figuring out to go back... Slow on the last couple of legs but knew where I was. Lost 2:30-3:00 or so total.
I was trying to do a good job of looking ahead -- "what will I see?" The short legs 2-3-4-5 were fun. :-)
1st F55; about 4th or 5th on the Brown course, perhaps (not all finishers were posted when they did awards). Fastest time I saw was around 35 min (Alisa Raitanen, a Finn).
FR: 3.289 km
