Orienteering 13:55 [5]
Botany Gift qual.
Interesting event. Not sure I'd have picked it for a NOL sprint, but oh well. The dunes at the beginning were different, bu mapped fine - just needed lines to be cut in places, like on the way to #1 so you could read the line of green crap you had to get through! I started off well, and concentrated hard on making sure I went the right way around the loop from the pivot. Unfortunately, although I got the order out of the pivot correct, I then turned my brain off and I completely forgot about the 3rd control in the loop...oops.
Legs were dead for the park run that made up 2/3rds of the course. Rachel took chunks out of my time in that part. But none of that matters, as we both missed the same control!
First time I've mp-d a sprint I think. Definitely the first time I've completely skipped a control! Can tick that off my bucket list of mistakes to make I guess...
