This was my best effort since March when I also ran in winter-like conditions (windchill -14 today). That was a good last hurrah before surgery next week.

Note

pre-admission check:
cane, physio, walk, snowshoe, food & drink?
Silly me, all my questions need to be asked of the surgeon now away hunting in Africa. The hospital visit simply walked me through their procedures, provided antibacterial soap and confirmed that I'm fit enough for surgery (triple-checked sitting heart rate of 48).

orienteering race 58:30 [4] *** 4.38 km (13:21 / km)
19c shoes: New Balance 479
night-O score-O
19 of 25 controls: 11, 2, 3, 4, 18, 19, 5, 6, 17, 7, 16, 24, 20, 25, 14, 13, 9, 10, 1
59.7%
This was my first night-O in years and I should have had much more focus on a score-O route strategy. Unlike in daylight running, I was unable to watch my footing at speed and strategize a map circuit en route. In daylight, I could have cleared this map in the 1 hour time limit.
Between 2 and 3, I should have grabbed 12 and 15. I attempted to find 22 but like others, I had to eventually cut my losses and head for 20. Between 16 and 22, I should have grabbed 8. Heading back from 25, I didn't even realise that I was still missing 8, 12 and 15 which I could have gathered before time ran out on the way to the finish.
I blew right by 25 and had to retrace, then came down all the way to the lake and used the flooded lakeside trail when I could have gained plenty of time using the road-quality trail passed the lighted maintenance buildings. I had plenty of time and energy to do 23 controls but I didn't have the smarts.
For orienteering, my Petzl lamp is just adequate not great. In a score-O format, however, it doesn't need to be great because there are so many other lamps bobbing through the woods.
Without some new-found confidence that should come with more night experience, I may not have attempted 21 and 23. However, I also hadn't noticed 'til after the event that the map was 1:5000 and the distances were only half what I thought I was working with against the ticking clock.
