Orienteering race 1:25:51 [4] *** 5.59 mi (15:21 / mi) +258m 13:26 / mi
spiked:15/20c shoes: Luath Blue XTalon 212s
GNC, Red 8.7km
Meet 3, course 4
Better today except for C2. Drifted W and then was trapped in an effective parallel error (two long similar sections of parallel trail). The take away from the weekend is that I need to see more of the map, especially once everything isn't matching up, Wyatt had mention disambiguating two reentrants simultaneously as a solution to the previous day. For me, this is probably aspirational during a race. Simply recognizing that a leg has increasing error with length, so as a run continues looking at a wider sweep is prudent (hopefully using good contact earlier to shorten the length). Most of my errors also lead back to faulty compass work (drift on C4, 5).
I liked this day better and was really enjoying the back and forth with Glen Tryson in the middle of the course. The forest was mostly pretty open and so you could cut loose, picking up your step to avoid the vines.
Keeping going managed to save 3rd on total time.
