I did Orange, the longest course offered at today's Bear Creek Lake Park meet. I repeatedly chose to bushwhack through thick, marshy brush -- which was unbelievably stupid. I knew it was stupid the first time I did it, and then for some reason I did the same thing on four or five more legs. I'm not a fan of that park as an orienteering venue anyway (it's open and urban), and crappy route choices that resulted in muddy, water-logged shoes didn't do anything to improve my outlook. Blah.

This was a 27-control Score-O at Fox Run Regional Park. I overshot the second-to-last control by quite a ways, but that was my only mistake. Oh, and I had a small route-choice error / oversight on one control. All in all, I was pretty happy to not have any major screw-ups!

Running from the economy lot to the terminal (no shuttles in sight), for my 5:30am flight. No sleep whatsoever. Ugh.
