Run warm up/down 7:00 [1]
shoes: Spring 2009 Integrators
Trivial warmup.
Orienteering race 1:30:13 *** 11.8 km (7:39 / km) +425m 6:29 / km
23c shoes: Spring 2009 Integrators
QOC Blue Long. A much better course, although still uninspiring.
I think you could have set a good middle on a small portion of this map. And then maybe had some terrain left over to do the long. I am not sure how you salvage yesterday's area. I presume there was not enough around the edges to do a long? Because otherwise, it is really only local event quality.
Anyway, I was rather disappointed in my performance here. Not sure what was going on, but it was an unpleasant surprise.

Note
Unlike some of my peers, I really did enjoy the weekend. True, the courses and terrain did not compare to the QOC US Champs. But, they were certainly pleasant and not wrong.
And, everything else about the weekend was superlative. I cannot find fault with anything. Including the prices.

Orienteering race 36:46 [3] ** 5.3 km (6:56 / km) +215m 5:46 / km
shoes: Spring 2009 Integrators
QOC Blue "Middle."
Truly, one of the easiest "middles" I have ever done. It got the physical parameters right, but the technical aspects were unfortunately lacking.
My performance was OK. A little wobbly in places, but no big mistakes.
