orienteering race 1:15:24 [4] 5.5 km (13:43 / km) +250m 11:10 / km
slept:9.0 shoes: VJ integrator
2nd national event: Chomberg. Forest with steep slopes and very wet and slippery parts. On the whole it was less bad than I had expected.
1-3: ok
4: 25m down and up again: straight would have been the answer (45'')
5: a bit lost in the green and had to go back (30'')
6: Control in the light green, so I didn't want to cross the line to what I thought was the dark green - where the control happened to bee. (2'30'')
7: ok - this is not really a route choice. One had to run along the path'. If anyone had the idea to go straigh and make extra 75m hight, this cost him/her a lot of time
8: Felt like searching for 5 minutes. In fact it was only 2', and a lot people lost much more. On the map, the control is on the changing line from white to dark green. The control stood in the middle of the dark green - and I could not see a change of vegetation there. Bad mistake from the map drawer. (2')
9-13: ok
14: 180° wrong away from nr. 13 (10m down and up again) (1'30'')
and then took the wrong route (1')
15-finish: ok
8'15'' in total: way too much for such a forest
