Orienteering race 1:08:14 [4] 7.2 km (9:29 / km)
First meet of the season. Cherry Creek State Park. Red course.
I had volunteered to run the Start area, so I did that for about an hour and a half before I set out. In the near past, I could easily have seen myself not even going out and just continuing to help, but Troy showed up to take over, so I had no excuse. Plus, I was pretty excited about orienteering, even if it was just Cherry Creek.
And, as anticipated, it was mostly a terrain run. The park is so open, and I spent a lot of time in it last year setting courses, so there was little navigational talent needed. I have to say, though, I did slightly miss on two controls...like 15s on each one...because I thought I remembered those particular control features, but I did not. So, I was just a bit off on both of them. Other than that, it went fine, and I ran for pretty much the whole thing.
