Orienteering (GMOC Red (partial)) 1:08:52 [3] 4.0 km (17:13 / km)
(sick)
Ran Red, but had an Asthma attack around the 3rd control. Couldn't run, hard to focus on navigation. Sat down for a spell to recover between 4 & 5 and realized the slopes were steeper than mapped and in fact, I wasn't even on the map anymore.
Kept going at a wheezing walk, drifting a bit on controls but getting through #9 and deciding that although I could finish at a walk, I really needed to get back in to help at the Finish, so I opted to DNF and jog the trails back in. Seeing the more open woods on the west side on Sunday, I probably could have continued and finished in reasonably good shape had I continued, but after thrashing miserably on the east side for over an hour, I had given up... The woods (and asthma) had beaten me today...
