orienteering race 1:08:12 [3]
Very disappointing run. Small error on #1 then settled down and had a bunch of good controls. Then misread the contours on #6 and so went high even though I knew there was a flag down low but I was sure it wasn't mine but it was. Then navigated well to within 40 feet of #7 and again misread contours and couldn't figure out what a huge reentrant was doing between me and the control and so clearly I was in the wrong place but where else could I be so I better go back but where else could I be only to find out 5 minutes later that no I was in the right place and the reentrant really was on the map but I wasn't reading the contours right. Not sure if I can blame it on the way the circle and number were drawn or if I just have too few brain cells left. Had no incentive to push the pace on the maze run at the end. Some people seemed to enjoy it; I didn't.
A shame that I am so down about this run because the map and terrain were terrific.
