Orienteering (Woodstock) 1:18:58 [3] 9.4 km (8:24 / km)
shoes: O' Icebuds 2014
This was quick run. Get there early, run quick leave right away so i could be home to go tot he Army/Navy Game.
I made the map so didn't anticipate any surprises. Nice open woods. Weather was cold but not too much so. I made a few minor mistakes but generally by biggest delay was I first runner. I had to wake up every control, and had to retie 4, open the water jugs, and the cup zip lock bags.
My only real mistake was because the control was lying on the ground. Since I didn't see it I kept going and overshot.
I took a fair amount of time to rehang the controls. One control I had to hunt around for the epunch. The control has blown down the hill a ways. the final control had both the epunch and the control tied to the same dead stick that was lying on the ground. At that point I said enough was enough so just jammed the stick into the cliff. I expect the dead stick probably broke off later for someone else.
