Orienteering race 1:49:42 [4] **** 7.3 km (15:02 / km) +590ft 13:23 / km
spiked:10/16c shoes: VJ Falcons
I didn't ever really feel comfortable on the map for this event. Poor route choice on 1 made me push hard on 2 to make time up. Got off course and messed up an easy control. #3 was the 2nd longest leg, ended up 250 meters west of the control, swallowed my pride and asked an older woman for location assistance at her control. She helped me, I reset and immediately ran 180 degrees off course. The next few points went OK, until the longest leg (#8) which I boomed as well. Completed the rest of the course without incident. Not the result I wanted but a fun end and course to complete the weekend.

Helped with control retrieval on the western side of the course. 4 of 6 controls were on the Red course. Amazing how easy they are to find when you walk and have been there before......
