orienteering race 2:07:26 [3] *** 14.39 km (8:51 / km) +305m 8:00 / km
21c shoes: Salomon ||v|| X 4
Bad race. Clean but slow in the beginning (feet were cramping bc shoes aren't 100 percent broken in), and then everything went haywire on 14. Didn't go in with a solid plan, thought some houses in the distance were the ones on the map (they weren't) and ended up straying off the map for a solid 20 minutes. A leg that should have taken me 3 minutes or less ended up taking 24. Awful. Next leg was bad too, ended up much further down the hill from the control than I anticipated (again due to bad/nonexistent planning and not using compass), and had to haul ass up the hill. Probably a 10 minute mistake. Very upsetting.
