Event: QOC: Lake Fairfax
Running 6:00 [2] 0.63 mi (9:31 / mi)
Warm up run prior to Orienteering event - round the roads by the park
Orienteering 20:26 [4] 2.9 km (7:03 / km)
Sprint Advanced 1 - missed the 2nd control by a little and got a bit hesitant into 3 then pfaffed a bit on way to 4. Missed exit from 6 and ended up to far south. Caught by Dave Pruden around 7 after which became a straight foot race as came back through the camp grounds.
Running 6:00 [2] 0.6 mi (10:00 / mi)
Very, very gentle jog down to the start for the second sprint
Orienteering 26:16 [4] 3.0 km (8:45 / km)
Adv sprint 2 - Lost time at 3 when coming straight across the reentrants, ended up to low on the ridge and came up skirting the edge of the hill and must have gone by the control real close, relocated on path leaving valley on other side and turned 180 and saw control after about 25-50m. Lost time at control after playing fields when I was not on the ridge crest earlier and again ran past the control, realized gone to far and turned round and headed back up ridge to control. Pfaffed a bit getting to penultimate control and fell/rolled down slope, but did at least think about how to start running again as I was on ground!
Orienteering 20:08 [4] 3.5 km (5:45 / km)
The beginners sprint, lost couple of seconds at both of the first two controls! A couple of other route chice errors by trying to cut some corners down by the Adv Sprint Start 2 area where got snagged by some of the forest gremlins
Orienteering 15:00 [2] 2.5 km (6:00 / km)
Control Pickup of some of the sprint controls - no idea on time but again very easy pace, much muddier than earlier on and the path I took by lake was very slippy as it was last year.
