29c
Wednesday Evening Series 2 @ Lake Wilderness Park. Ye gods, a mispunch! I can't remember the last time I MP'd; I think it's been years. Say whatever else you want about my orienteering but I'm assiduous about checking codes, not skipping controls, etc. However, today I was not as careful as usual, since in the rush of prepping for the event I forgot my O-bag and thus didn't have my description holder and wasn't able to check every code. With a valid result, would have gotten Eric by about half a minute.
Also, lost 30s on a poor route choice at 24, and 30s at 26 after I moseyed right past the flag. I was distracted at the time by a woman who was running almost as fast as me and wearing the same Ragnar shirt; she said "hey nice shirt" and I said "hey you too" and I temporarily forget about navigating and such.
