orienteering race 1:22:54 [3] *** 9.91 km (8:22 / km) +106m 7:56 / km
spiked:18/20c shoes: Icebug Spirit
US Two-Day Champs, Beaver Dam Run, Red M35, 8.8 km, 240 m, 24th (3rd M35, 2nd eligible). Not perfectly clean, but pretty close -- it was pretty easy, virtually no route choice, just go straight. The first half or so was remarkably open woods, and I just couldn't go as fast as the terrain warranted. The errors were pretty small. Better placing than I expected.
Pretty chilly, a little above freezing, but dry. I wore my gray LS top and my RMOC O-top, and was concerned that I'd be too warm, but it was okay. My hands were cold at the start, but by #5 I had noticed that they had warmed up. Got nailed in the left hand pretty good by some greenbriar about 3/4 of he way around. I felt it, and thought, "that's gonna bleed". It was okay at first glance, but a minute or so later, I was leaking pretty good. No serious harm. I also got stopped dead in my tracks at one point when my hair got tangled in some greenbriar I was passing under, and neither was willing to let go.
240m of climb on the course specs? How did I manage to do it in 106?
