Orienteering race 1:16:42 [3] 5.3 mi (14:28 / mi) +180m 13:05 / mi
Letchworth West
Quite a different course and quite a different result. I blew two controls badly, including #3 (still not sure how - after finding it, I swear I'd been standing there earlier) and #11 (overshot when I interpreted overgrown yellow as green). Winsplits says I was slow to #10 also, but I don't get that one. Combined finish for the two days was 8th out of 14 so I missed my usual goal of "top half" by a distressingly small amount.

Orienteering 55:00 [1]
Control pickup - more controls in a more compact area. I'd crossed this area twice earlier and also in a meet years ago, but had never been through it in this direction, so the pickup was unfamiliar and more fun.

Orienteering race 1:41:40 [3] 6.0 mi (16:57 / mi) +235m 15:06 / mi
Letchworth East
For the second time in a row, I had a course with mostly even legs, so I decided to try for 7 min/leg as a target pace. Drifted high on #2, but relocated and lost minimal time. Then did well until #12 when I cut in one stream too early; I realized it almost immediately, but paid the price by slowly crossing a wet seep. Blew #13 by drifting to another control. Blew #14 by being slow and coming out in the wrong part of the field. Still, all in all, a decent run.

Control pickup at Letchworth East. Ended up doing a modified version of my #3-#5 (plus exit) route, fairly effectively. Actually made nearly the same times...

Dragon Hunting (Tactics) in Maze Mania
Did a bit better finding chests, although I stupidly left 15,000 points on the table by not 4x-ing just before one of them... 187,747 points. Top third overall; top half age group; one and only all-time at the Y. P:95; C:59.
