Orienteering race 1:52:18 [5] 7.41 mi (15:09 / mi) +506m 12:30 / mi
shoes: Solomon Speedcross - Green
ROC Falls Classic - Letchworth - Red Y
First few controls went well. Made an error on 5, the shortest leg of the entire race...I always seem to do that. I must have ran right by the correct reentrant without looking in and didn't realize it until I had way overshot. 5-6-7 involved going down a very large, steep hill and then right back up. Not fun. From 8-9 I went down to the road and back up. Found the correct hill, but I wandered a bit before I found the flag. Just had no energy left for the second half. I hopped on trails/roads a lot, but with how slowly I was moving I should've just gone straight. One more small error on 14, but I hit the stream just W and corrected quickly.
Overall I was happy with my navigation, I only had a few small bobbles. I could've picked better routes to avoid climb throughout though.
