Running warm up/down 10:00 [3] 0.5 mi (20:00 / mi)
Easy warm up before the long.
Orienteering race 2:23:50 [4] 14.4 km (9:59 / km) +120m 9:35 / km
I did some stupid mistakes on the course today, probably 15-20 minutes worth of it:
5: Went too far down the river bank. I didn't see the contour right next to the river, so trying to force my way through some really tough undergrowth.
7: The biggest mistake. Trying to go east, around the hill, but I didn't have a good attackpoint. I was probably 20-30 meters away from the control, when I thought I was too far east, when I was too far wast. Moving to the west getting further away from the control and more lost. After loosing minutes, I decided to head towards the path to relocate since there were no other distinct features. After that, I easily found it.
8: Bad route choice. I went for the small path. Should have headed down for the river.
16: I took bearing from the clearing, and went too far north-east. I went direectly out to the river to relocate, and was able to back track.
I felt pretty good running wise though. It was hot (upper 70's), and naturally made me slower, but I think I held up pretty well and I recovered pretty well afterwards. It feels like I have significantly improved compared with last spring.
I finished 28 out of 30.
