Race Evaluation
Lac Bourgeois B-meet: Long advanced
boyle
| 1. | I ran out the parkway. | ||||||
| 2. | I intended to run straight over the top but predictably drifted more than 100m left. | ||||||
| 3. | SSE to trails and stayed on trails 'til last possible moment, however, I learned that many future trail sections were likely to be under water. | ||||||
| 4. | |||||||
| 5. | nice short simple leg along water | ||||||
| 6. | NE to trail then N off trail but came out at intersection 60m left of the one I wanted then trails to cliff but hesitated on two cliffs going down to correct cliff | ||||||
| 7. | N to trail, simple leg | ||||||
| 8. |
Bad distance judgement | Totally screwed up this leg, visited two controls from other maps, I may have been distracted by other orienteers but I suspect that I still would have pulled up 200m short as I did. | |||||
| 9. | Just when I thought things couldn't get worse, I again drifted >100m left (there's a pattern here) of where I thought I was after compass run to last perpendicular trail. | ||||||
| 10. | I did not enjoy running trails full of water and biting raspberries but at least I knew the trails I needed. I left trail too soon for final approach. | ||||||
| 11. | By the lodge, over the bridge and through the parking lot but I SLOWED right down (too much) in the woods. | ||||||
| 12. | I was very happy my straight compass leg through the green. | ||||||
| 13. | Nearly went swimming approaching nice flat dry looking pond surface SE of 12, then nearly did the same at pond surrounded by trails and I watched Eric almost go swimming in the big pond. | ||||||
| F. | I'd let Eric go up to 13 but easily took better route to parkway after control but had nothing left to race him home. |
