Orienteering race 16:52 [4] ** 2.6 km (6:29 / km)
spiked:11/14c shoes: Integrator
Sprint in the RIT campus.
Couple bobbles, but pretty good results for me for a sprint. Map at 1:4000, and I still couldn't pick out building issues... I don't think I prefer this sort of event (though I'm not going to avoid them;-). My eyes just don't permit me to see the map clear enough, fast enough.
Good leg at #3, and while I took the long route at 9, I still had a very good leg time. (apparently running the safe route without hesitation was ok overall)
Orienteering race 29:52 [5] ** 3.0 mi (9:57 / mi)
spiked:22/24c shoes: Integrator
Score-O after the sprint at RIT.
Felt good throughout, though not quite as fast as others.
Route: 9-14-6-23-10-11-13-18-22-4-3-21-5-20-8-7-2-16-24-12-15-19-1-17
Think I had a better route choice at than others with 3 spots.
9 first - shorter to grab it before others on the way to 14. it allowed me to go from 3 to 21 and cut off distance vs 3-9-21.
6-23-10-11 - used a through building path to avoid any backtracking from 10 to 23.
2-16-24-12-15 - 12 after 24 avoided climb.
The one bobble area - 22 and then 4. I must have been moving well after 18 because I saw the control "over there" and didn't think it was the next. I finally punched it, but was saying "it's not mine" (but never looked at the code...) So later on I said - hmmm - it must have been - and went on. I then lucked into noticing 4 on the map when I thought I should be heading out to 3. (the plan was to get them in that order, but the mixup over 22 got me off track) Checking my splits - that looks like at least a 3 minute error...
Enjoyed the opportunity to run the RIT campus.
