Canadian O-Champs (Short Course)
Was flustered just before the race and took a bit to get into the rythem. Major error on control #4 and debated following Boris to it when heading out to relocate, but played it fair and relocated on my own. New O-shoes were great! Wish I had O-shoes a long time ago!
Orienteering race 16:08 [5] 2.7 km (5:59 / km)
Canadian O-Champs (Sprint Fundraiser)
A great course by Mike Smith in a downtown park during BBQ. Was really fast and really fun with a great crowd and lots of excitement. Unfortunately my one goal of not embaressing myself was blown in the first 20sec of my run, when everyone got to watch me take peel off for control #2... you'd think I learnt that "1" comes before "2" sometime back in elementary school. Tried to make up for it but the wheels were not there to catch a speed demon like J-Roc, who took the win.
