Orienteering race 52:20 [5] *** 4.2 km (12:28 / km) +90m 11:15 / km
spiked:8/8c shoes: Integrators Orange
US Long Champs, Letchworth State Park East. 9th overall on Brown, 5th US in M65. Navigated well, but way too cautious and conserved too much energy (as a result of recent runs at Calero and Big Basin), leaving me with a lot left at the end. I was particularly slow on #8, when I was in the right place the whole time but couldn't identify anything that would give me confidence.
I was very accurate once I was near controls, with only a few seconds lost at #3 (off to the right by 25m) and #10 (due to mis-mapped thicket).

Didn't leave a lot of time for warming up, and didn't really need it as I planned to start slowly.
Orienteering warm up/down 6:00 [2] 0.4 mi (15:00 / mi)
shoes: Integrators Orange
Good cool down around the grass field before boarding the bus. At the time, I was feeling good about my navigation, and hadn't yet realized that I hadn't run hard enough.
