Red Course at WCOC meet at Brooksvale Park. 15 controls on 1:10000 map followed by map exchange to 8 sprint controls on 1:5000 map. Challenging to sprint after 7km of orienteering. An OK run, trying to focus on reading features and not using the compass. Vegetation and trails on the map need a bit of updating, so using the contours and stone walls was the way to go. Lost a few minutes on a couple of controls drifting off line but usually was in enough contact to recover. Nice day, 50's and mostly sunny.
