Orienteering 1:02:05 [3] 3.7 km (16:47 / km)
Today has been one of the roughest races I've had all trip. I was absolutely destroying the course, I was at 27 minutes with only a few controls to go, until I looked down at my watch and lost focus. Those few seconds took me off my compass line and straight south,90 degrees, off my bearing. This cost me 13 minutes. Then the next control I nailed and I was really excited that I didn't let that bother me at all. However, 2 controls later I took a stupid route choice, straight on my compass instead of the spur down to the feature. I was forced to relocate and find a different approach. This also cost me 10 minutes. So I have learned DONT GET DISTRACTED!!!!!

Orienteering race 1:03:45 [5] ***** 3.2 km (19:55 / km) +170m 15:44 / km
spiked:6/14c
On my way to control 8 I ran into a really pleasant surprise. Just as I was about to punch the 8th control a little 10-12 year old girl came up to me crying asking for help. I couldn't just leave her there so I decided to walk/jog her half way across the map to her control. Then I told her how to get to the next control and sent her on her way. The. I was tired of climbing so I took a "bad" root choice back to number 8. I overshot the control by about 10m but quickly relocated and punched the control. By this time I was out way past what I wanted to be so I just went back. All the way up to the 8th control I had great flow on my course with only a few bobbles here and there. All in all I'm happy with my run.
