Orienteering race (Westcliff) 25:18 [4] 3.9 km (6:29 / km) +90m 5:49 / km
shoes: Inov-8 X-Talon 212 Orange

Westcliff (Ridge & Hope Schools) 1:4'000

New map, very technical and reasonably hilly.

Good start, but 20-30s mistake at #4 with the control in the wrong spot. Then better again, but difficult to get into a good flow with the technical route choices and map reading. Took middle route to #10, when N route was probably faster. Also not the fastest to #11, going S of the big building. Good through to 14, but the change in control position threw me and I ran 14-17 instead of to 15. Did a 1:09 for a 25m leg. :-(

Like all the elites, didn't see the hidden path through the overprint and ended up doing a very looping route to 19 to avoid uncrossable sections (used SE road). Then took SE route to 20 but misread the gate symbols and then also didnt see a passage, so I went the long way. Better after that but ended up 5 mins down on Brad (whom I didn't even see pass me). Probably about 2-3 mins of mistakes not incl. #19.
