Orienteering race (Middle) 50:31 [3] *** 3.7 km (13:39 / km)
spiked:14/16c shoes: Inov-8 OROC 340

This was an interesting race, it was not as technically difficult as I was expecting for some reason, probably memories of the Whistler COC middle were in my head. In any event, I was keeping it slow and conservative. Running speed was slower than usual. The error of note was at #6 where going in too low cost me at least 5 minutes. I could have also picked up a lot of time with the running.

Orienteering race (Sprint) 30:09 [3] ** 2.69 km (11:12 / km)
spiked:16/19c shoes: Mizuno Wave Nexus 7

First off, never run a sprint course such as this one in conventional running shoes, must have lost a minute or two right of the bat just climbing that hill to the first control. Lost more time at #4 and #17. #4 was a classic parallel error, took the wrong path and ended up on a parallel feature, the actual control was one over, saw #5 before I got back to #4. On #17, I was just way too low, and ran into #18 before I got to #17. This probably amounts to about 5~6 min of errors!
