Orienteering race (Sprint) 25:00 [3]
shoes: New Balence 765 Red
Sprint race at Aspen Grove. Didn't go so well. Control three was sketchy, lost 7 minutes. Many people felt it was misplaced, but my opinion is that the map (a 1:5000 enlargment of a 1:15000 orignal) wasn't consistant in that area. It drained my enthusiams, and was hard to get moving again. Also had trouble moving through brush in running shoes.
A real shame, becuase the course was well set in a fun technical area!

Aspen Grove Middle. Chase format.
Really fun! This was definately worth the trip. I was head to head with John. We were constantly back and forth and it forced me to keep the intensity up. Had a narrow lead going into 12, but lost it on 13, when I was tricked into taking an unmapped major road through the logging.
