Event: MNOC - River Bend Nature Center
 

River Bend Nature Center
After my train wreck of an orienteering race from last week, I decided to focus again on what I meant to do last week, before my head fell off.
I took the course at a pace where I always knew where I was, stayed on the map, and did not try to go as fast as possible, but as clean as possible at whatever pace that meant.
The course and terrain were much easier than last week's, and I was able to stick to my plan and still jog most of the way.

Very enjoyable. Nice course, Ian.... I like the new map!

Plan last week was to also run orange, but to practice here at a faster pace.
LAST week, I didn't have time for orange because I used it all up on the red. =(

It was fun to see (from course setter's perspective) how the same controls that were used on the Red, coming at them from one direction.... were so much easier to find on the Orange.... coming at them from the other direction. Perhaps having punched them before helped, but I was impressed with the clever course setting in this regard.

orange - Splits

red - Splits
