Orienteering race (Red course) 2:58:17 [3] 6.24 mi (28:34 / mi) +1732ft 22:37 / mi
slept:8.0 shoes: Salomon Speedcross (2014)
Ugh -- this was REALLY hard for me physically, due to the steepness. I kind of just gave up and slowed down to an unmotivated trudge after #6.
Two DUMB mistakes: leaving #5, I followed the wrong drainage, which was steep and full of thick vegetation. Wasted lots of time there. And then, since I hadn't learned my lesson, I did the same thing when I approached #6, which was not as steep but still full of thick vegetation. Good grief.
I also had trouble in the rocky areas (#8 and #10).
Looking at the graph, it appears that I was way behind Kris for the entire race, but ahead of Paula until the very last leg. Sigh...
