Orienteering 1:20:00 [3] 7.0 km (11:26 / km) +150m 10:19 / km

Control hanging for Genesis AR at Ringwood. I try to do some fast sections, but the course setter mode is inherently slow, since the control and streamers need to be hung, sometimes some branches and rocks are needed to build a stand. So there is not much speed or rhythm. Towards the end I push through some difficult sections on the map. Interesting, how the perspective changes, when I run fast and only pick details from the map with a glance. It is almost like running continuously on the edge of losing contact with the map. Say the risk is higher, the map reading is just minimal enough to navigate. When I set controls, I check almost every detail when coming to or leaving from the control.

Note

For those who try to figure out crucial data about the AR course: I didn't visit all controls on foot. Some driving was involved 'pour tromper l'enemi". The number of controls is not included to keep the veil of secrecy.
