orienteering 1:55:14 [4] *** 9.9 km (11:38 / km) +545m 9:08 / km
ahr:168 spiked:21/22c shoes: O' Shoes

Garmin distance: 11.57k, 575m.

Strategy today was to run the first half as a long run and pick it up if I felt good after that. I didn't feel that great after the first half, so I just tried to hang on. The errors I remember making were one bad route choice on 5 and one bobble on a compass control, after my compass had broken. Pretty excited I could hold it together for almost 2 hours. A good sign for the Billygoat!

Also, my compass broke on the tenth control. It was a water stop at a steep ravine, and my planned exit was to run down the spur. Unfortunately, all the water had fallen down the ravine, and this was the control where I'd planned to take my Gu. So I had to go down the ravine. I fell and hit my elbow and didn't notice my compass had broken until I crossed the next huge ravine! After that, the strategy was to keep in really close contact, because it would be really really hard to relocate without a compass. And I did!
