Orienteering 1:00:09 [3] **** 6.1 km (9:52 / km) +240m 8:14 / km
spiked:14/23c

Peña Colorada Middle.

This was an ok middle. I made a lot of mistakes and I struggled to relocate well. The map quality was suspect. The white woods were just as thick as the green. Some ditches seemed more like trails. In short, not a great map.

Error time: 8:00 minutes

Errors:
-Getting pushed off course by green (Although since the green wasn't accurate at all it threw me off even more)
-Poor bearings.
-Pushing the pace when I should have focused on better navigation.

Solutions:
-When in green focus on the compass to keep me on track.
-Check direction when exiting a control (it's one of those pivotal points)
-A middle should be competitive but not headless chicken competitive.
