Forest Orienteering (JWOC) 42:46 [5] 3.0 km (14:15 / km)
Middle C final, the first control caught me off guard, as it did to many others due to how technical it was. To put it into perspective, when I walked it correctly reading my map after the race it took 2:49, and this was without breaking into a jog. My split was around 7:00 so deducting from the fact that if anyone would have jogged the leg correctly then their time should have been at least 2:00. The race was lost right from the first control because of the severity of the mistake (5:00). Further on I had lost another 3:00 due to the next 2 mistakes I made at controls 5 and 8. The rest was almost perfect. I was content with how close I still ended up behind the other canadians. Otherwise, my race was weak.
