Event: OOC B-meet
orienteering race 1:56:57 [3] *** 6.4 km (18:16 / km) +15m 18:04 / km
13c shoes: New Balance MT572
March Highlands
19/24
41.3%
Apparently it's a detriment to be familiar with a trail system before the first time you see it put on an orienteering map. It took me the first two controls to settle down. Forty-one minutes for the first two controls? That's not good for the confidence early in a race. Things were straight forward after that.
I can't wait to see the split analysis.

Running warm up/down 2:00 [3] 0.25 km (8:00 / km)
shoes: New Balance MT572
After caching for a couple of miles in the 38 humidex, a warm-up was so unnecessary.
7 PM
orienteering race (McCarthy Woods) 56:13 [4] *** 5.69 km (9:53 / km)
25c shoes: New Balance MT572
with handicap 83.4% 17/44
1, 2, 16, 17, 28, 21, 20, 22, 23, 19, 24, 25, 27, 26, 6, 14, 13, 8, 12, 10, 9, 7, 5, 4, 3
I cleared the map (excluding my handicap of two controls) as many other racers must have also done. I lost a few minutes at #24 which I had just reconciled as one of my handicaps when I decided to follow a bunch of runners back N on the correct trail. Some of us chasing #24 had used an unmapped trail. Approaching #19, I got to see the VIA train heading for Toronto. Approaching last control (#3), I couldn't resist following runner in front of me, jumping home-run fence (and not ripping pants) and running along warning track to control at far foul pole DURING THE BASEBALL GAME. As soon as I finished I confessed to official requesting DQ but she only laughed.
Since these shoes aren't going to make it to the Boilermaker anyway, they may have been ruined by all the mud this evening.
