orienteering race (middle) 34:34 [3]
First of all, I forgot to start my watch...I hate it when that happens. Then I managed a pretty good race,I thought, up til I got to the finish and discovered that I had skipped #7. That accounted for all of the trouble I had going to #8...duh, when will I learn??? Here's the whole scenario...get to #6 - 90 and think that I am looking for 70 so I go 10m beyond before I check my CD and discover that I really did want 90. Start off from there for about 50m and "discover" that I'd made a 180, but it wasn't a 180, really, I had somehow slipped my thumb over to the line going to #8. At that point I realized that this was taking longer than it should but with the steep/deep reentrants I persevered and finally located on a cliff/rocky ground reentrant and found my way directly to #8...woo-hoo! ...I mistakenly think....run to #9 and in only to have an "ah-ha" moment. Good thing there are other chances coming up next weekend!
