| WCOC Trout Brook red, nice course set by Rick, after heavy rain, so the woods were very wet. A modest physical effort, but the orienteering was OK: just a bunch of small mistakes, maybe 4-5 minutes total including three 30 second misses. I like running on this map: it's detailed, and requires good concentration, but it's also readable and accurate. And though there's quite a bit of rocky ground, there's also lots of nice runnable woods. I kept the laces to my left shoe totally loose, which got me through without too much discomfort. Good thing I didn't step in a mud hole: the shoe would have been gone! |

| Orange course from my Norwottuck meet a couple of years ago. 2-3 minutes of mistakes. Seems I always mess something up running on this map, usually involving unmapped or poorly mapped trails. |
