Orienteering race 40:50 [4]
Much better run today. Short legs - mostly bearing, run, check-off features. Smooth, aggressive, and good map contact except #11. Legs VERY tired on uphills. Perhaps got lucky on notorious #10 (102) - 3 going into or out of it as I approached. Depression was further from broad spur, closer to lip of reentrant than I expected.
9 of 17 splits between 12th and 19th - better than usual, including several near end of course. 22/51 on Green. 6th (?) in M60. My error on #11 cost me about 8 places, 2 places in M60.
Wicked uphill from #10 so I sliced to left to go up on a diagonal and to drop 2 contours. At ridge, misread reentrant. The one below was "mine" but I thought I was still one left. Went right, hit bottom, very surprised no control. Pushed back - saw it flying high. "Everyone else" saw it from 200m uphill - UGH (-3). In hindsight, I 'should have known' based on curve in road far to left.
After 3 hard days, overall I feel VERY good (no climb please!). Lots of mf rose/briar scratches on both arms.
